Well yes, it seems to me that there's a numbers question on the Island of Montreal and off the Island of Montreal.
The policy that the Government of Quebec applies to language questions is applied generally across the province. And it's true that on the Island of Montreal or in the Montreal region there is a long historical tradition of institutions built by the community for the most part serving the community well. Some of them date from a couple hundred years ago.
However, it's the only official language minority in the country in which the trend is a decline. Our hospitals are not as controlled or as connected to the community as they used to be. Our universities are wonderful organizations, but they are very integrated into the majority community as well.
The service profile that the community used to have, certainly in health and social services and to some extent in education, has declined.
