Thank you, Madam Bateman. I appreciate that.
I wanted to mention, does the government do enough? Under the current President of the Treasury Board the government has implemented linguistic clauses in bilateral agreements, which have been of enormous assistance to us in our dealings with the Government of Quebec. I'll give you a perfect example, the Growing Forward 2 bilateral agreement on agriculture. Before English-speaking farmers in Quebec had difficulty accessing services in English. Through programs paid for by Growing Forward, federal money goes to Quebec to pay for them. The English-speaking farmers now have the ability, in partnership with the Government of Quebec and the Government of Canada, to access services in English. It's very important, and we think it's a great initiative.
By the way, clauses are included in the current labour market agreement. Right now in every bilateral agreement between the feds and the province these linguistic clauses are being considered, and we can consider that a big step forward.
