We had some discussions, and indeed certain questions remain perhaps problematical from a constitutional standpoint. The broader issues that we focused on concern more the bill's impact on the Official Languages Act, which, remember, is a quasi-constitutional act that also subjects the federal institutions and certain other corporations that, under their enabling statutes, are subject to the Official Languages Act. With respect to constitutional issues, it is probably up to the authors of the bill to consider those issues. We have identified a few of those questions, and we share that point of view.
