It's good to promote bilingualism during celebrations, and it is important to do so, but shouldn't the commissioner push things a little further in terms of requirements within our institution? Here, at least half the people don't speak French. However, the government says that it promotes bilingualism. In reality, this isn't being done. There is a lack of willingness. I don't know where this requirement could come from, but it seems to me that it should come from your office, Mr. Fraser. We don't require people to answer us in French. As you said so well, many people answer only in English.
