Since time is flying by, Mr. Chairman, I will share my time with my two colleagues. Our challenge is to ask three questions in five minutes.
My question concerns something that has caused a great deal of ink to flow in Quebec in recent days. It has to do with the appointment of Supreme Court justices. I seem to have read or heard that you were very much in favour of the NDP bill proposing that Supreme Court justices be bilingual. My question is quite a simple one. Did the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages take steps to influence the appointment process or the appointment of Supreme Court justices?
