Thank you for your excellent question.
The anglophone community in Quebec is distributed as follows: 80% of anglophones are in the greater Montreal region, and 10% are in the three major urban regions, which are Quebec City, Sherbrooke and Gatineau. The remaining 10% are in the more remote rural regions, and that last segment is the most difficult to reach and consult.
The advantage of Economic Development Canada lies in its organizational structure. We have business offices in all regions of Quebec. We have an immediate point of contact with our business offices and they can provide services in both official languages in most cases, which allows us to connect with these groups. It often helps us to consult the community and to help promoters and clients develop and implement projects.
The other advantage that came out of Industry Canada's most recent summative evaluation, and that stems from the network of business offices, is that our communication mechanisms and approach with the OLMCs are very good, and we are doing this in various ways. For example, we have the dialogue day, which was just mentioned. We held one two years ago. The event was an opportunity to bring together some fifty organizations representing the OLMCs and government representatives. It is an excellent forum for connecting with the communities and to help us better understand their needs. In fact, it is the preferred mechanism for reaching out to our OLMCs.
