Thank you for your question.
First of all, I believe the commissioner's observation is very relevant. Our action has to take a slightly more proactive and targeted approach. When I worked on the agreement with Université Sainte-Anne—we also did it with Glendon College—that was also consistent with the approach of the Roadmap for Canada's Linguistic Duality. We also had funds to make the minority communities aware of employment opportunities with the federal government and of the importance and added value of being bilingual. We were much more active at that point.
Without wanting to find false administrative or other excuses, I believe the purpose of the discussions I'm currently having with Canadian Heritage, among others, is to determine what a more proactive approach to consulting the communities would be. It would enable us to see how we can respond to it, within our mandate, of course. We don't want to create expectations, in the sense that there are things that we can't intervene in. For example, we don't hire. Sometimes people ask us why we don't hire them. We have to be clear when we send our message and take action. One of my personal responsibilities as Official Languages Champion is to work in this area.
