When we talk about Canadian values, we know very well that official languages and linguistic duality are part of our DNA. Canada must not stand down; rather, it should go forward and strengthen what we already have. I applauded Minister Joly when she said last Saturday that we should never go backwards and that we should make every effort to go forward. That is something that all of us around this table are doing. We are seeking to strengthen laws and consolidate the rights of minority francophones.
I know that we are going through a period of crisis and obviously we have to look at the problem of the Université de l'Ontario français and the Office of the French Language Services Commissioner, but nonetheless, I would like to know if there are other measures that we should be taking, whether at the federal or provincial level, to reinforce minority rights.
Do you have any ideas?
