I am aware of this issue and of its importance. I am a former British Columbian radio host and I am fully aware of this. In that particular province, 1.3% of the population is French-speaking. Several of my former colleagues are French-speaking, in Prince George. I do not know if the percentage can be any lower than zero, but that is more or less the French-speaking population in that area. So it is crucial for that type of organization and radio broadcasting to exist in the region. I have had regular dealings with them and I am fully aware of the situation.
I would also like to talk about the first decision I made when I was appointed minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages. Mr. Bélanger is well versed in these matters. I held discussions with the CRTC on broadcasting here, in Ottawa, to make sure that the francophone community was well represented.
