Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
My questions will be about work.
Given the massive job cuts in the public service, and the loss of jobs in many government agencies where bilingualism is promoted, do you not think that measures to further bilingualism in our country are becoming cosmetic, if not superfluous? The facts are that in the federal public service, jobs are being cut, and there is no requirement that French be spoken in the workplace. What is your opinion on that?
