My understanding, Madam Bateman, was that the point of the study being undertaken by the language committee now is to ensure linguistic duality in the celebrations of the 150th anniversary of Confederation, so I don't think we have a comment to make on the full composition of whatever governance mechanism is put in place to manage the process. We just reiterate what has been said here today, which is that we certainly support our colleagues here at the table to ensure there is representation from Canada's official language minority communities, English and French. That would be our concern.
