I also congratulate the principal, Mr. Charette, the teachers and students.
It's obvious the students are studying well here since they speak as quickly as Ms. Lanteigne, their teacher.
It's good that there are teachers from New Brunswick. I'm a bit disappointed there aren't any from British Columbia, but perhaps that will be the case next time.
The students' stories are very interesting. I thank you for them. I have three children who attend a French immersion school in British Columbia, in West Vancouver, in the constituency I represent.
We often talk about nation-building in this committee. We are individuals, but together we are the Canadian nation. What effect does it have on non-francophones to hear you speak French? We just said we have to speak English from time to time. However, in British Columbia, in Alberta, in Ottawa, which are cities where many people don't speak French, what effect does the use of French have? I think our nation has a lot of values, and most of the people here today have this value of saving the French language and contributing to its vitality. How does your use of French and your love for the French language influence other people who don't speak French? I think that will influence the next generations in the Canadian nation.
Do the students want to answer?
