As Mr. Godin said, when you speak English, everything related to exports, particularly to the United States, becomes much easier. For instance, the Gourmet du Village project in Morin-Heights, which was approved under EDI, sought to market products outside Canada, to the United States in particular. The goal of the project was to support its marketing efforts. It might seem that language was not an obstacle in this case, but the promoter needed our help to structure its marketing efforts in order to be able to sell products to the United States.
