That is quite a broad question. It is always difficult to go beyond qualitative assessments of a situation to determine its quantitative effect.
Take the public service as an example. According to the Treasury Board, between 92% and 93% of positions designated bilingual are held by people who have passed their exams and who have the qualifications required. Does that mean that French is used as much as English in the workplace? There is no quantitative answer to that question. The evaluation is rather a qualitative one, using anthropological observations in the workplace.
I am always a little at a loss when I am asked if things are getting better or worse. My answer is always that it depends. We see improvements in some institutions but we see a deterioration, or cases that give rise to complaints in other institutions. During an investigation, I have difficulty discussing it.
But, in any event, one of the themes of the annual report is that success is invisible and failure is anything but.
