I also have good news, but it is rare. I think we need to be realistic. The indicators on which the Official Languages Act was based are being called into question. I am referring now to the percentage of Canadians whose mother tongue is French, to the percentage of Anglophones or allophones, and to the language spoken at home. The Laurendeau-Dunton Commission had recommended that Statistics Canada ask these questions. It did so in 1971, thereby complying with a U.N. recommendation. The United Nations had in fact suggested that member countries collect this kind of information.
