In percentage terms, the Franco-Yukon immigrant population is the third most francophone immigrant population: nearly 15% of our francophone population in the Yukon comes from outside the country. That's why it's essential that the funding provided under the Roadmap reaches all the provinces and territories. It's important for a territory such as ours, which had no structure for francophone immigration until 2005-2006, to be able to receive adequate funding to build a network so that we can conduct follow-up. However, it goes beyond that. We're currently receiving funding for recruitment from Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
I said that people are currently in Europe doing recruitment, but when they arrive in Yukon, that same department, Citizenship and Immigration Canada, signs service agreements. These are people who offer services to immigrants. Those services are currently offered in English only in the Yukon, which is a good way for them to be assimilated from the outset. It's illogical.
The Roadmap for Canada's Linguistic Duality is a good thing, but the government must operate logically in delivering services. In future, it should ensure that service provided to citizens is fair for everyone because we want to improve people's lives. The Yukon is a bilingual territory under Canadian legislation.
