Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the 63rd meeting of the Standing Committee on Official Languages today, Thursday, November 29, 2012.
We are here pursuant to Standing Order 108 for a study on linguistic duality during the 150th anniversary celebrations of Canadian Confederation in 2017.
We have three groups before us today: Ms. Perkins and Mr. Rothon, from Canadian Parents for French; Mr. Cooke et Ms. Lafrance, from French for the Future; and Mr. Chartier and Mr. Fleury, from the Metis National Council.
We will start with Canadian Parents for French.
