Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Caza, thank you for being here today and clarifying a number of things for us.
I would like to share something with my colleagues. In a stoke of genius, last weekend the Franco-Ontarian artist Mélissa Ouimet released a song called “Personne ne pourra m'arrêter” or “No one can stop me”, which she performs with other francophone artists. It's a bit like synchronized swimming. The song illustrates exactly how minority communities can never give up. I encourage everyone to watch the video, which is extremely moving for anyone living this reality every day.
We are still in shock, but now we are starting to take action. I know that Minister Joly had an opportunity to see Premier Ford at the first ministers' meeting last week. Our government has reached out to the Premier of Ontario, and we are ready to work with him to provide funding for the Université de l'Ontario français. Mr. Caza, do you think the Ford government will respond to our invitation and be open to dialogue?
