So you get a little assistance from Quebec. That is what I wanted to know.
We often hear that francophones in Quebec are unaware of francophones outside Quebec. I hope that is not the case. People in Quebec think they are the only ones who speak French in Canada. When you sit on a committee such as the official languages committee, you realize that many francophones outside Quebec struggle every day to retain their language.
My personal issue with regard to the roadmap is French-language health services. Over the course of this committee's meetings, I have often asked where we stand on French-language health services and whether any improvements can be made. Friends in Vancouver have told me horror stories. It is all well and good to be bilingual, but when you are sick, you are sick in your mother tongue. I want to ensure that everyone can obtain care in his or her language.
