I want to say hello to Mr. Fraser and his team. It's always an honour to speak with you.
First, thank you for all your excellent work on official languages.
I have been on the committee before, and I have noticed that the same issues often come up. Not much has changed, since we are still talking about them.
I want to know one thing. It's often said that our federal institutions must take the lead in promoting bilingualism across the country.
Your report states that CBC/Radio-Canada must address some deficiencies in terms of the response time for French emails, which is twice as long as it is for English emails.
I think federal institutions should have started submitting reports to us a long time ago. I believe this issue has been discussed for a number of years.
As you suggested in your report on Air Canada, do you think penalties should be imposed to send a message to people and institutions?
