Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Power, dear colleagues, thank you very much for being here today. Your presentation is informative and will guide us, and we thank you for that. It will guide both our thinking and the recommendations our future report contains. Thank you very much.
I'd like to go back to what Mrs. Fortier just said. We're currently going through a crisis. We're naturally trying to preserve the gains we have made, but we've suddenly realized that some gains we thought we had made, such as the Office of the French Language Services Commissioner, remain fragile. As I understand it, there are three official language commissioners: one at the federal level, another in New Brunswick and a third in Ontario, in the Office of the French Language Services Commissioner. The francophone university project in Toronto falls under another heading, education, which is a provincial jurisdiction. Anglophones and francophones have succeeded in managing their school boards, but early childhood and postsecondary education are beyond their control.
Are there any changes that we can make, as part of the revision of the Official Languages Act, to improve respect for language rights and, of course, access to education in both official languages across the country?
