You have the power to influence departments' decisions to help them reach the objectives. I manage projects. When I apply for funding, I am provided with objectives. If I don't reach those objectives, I am penalized. There are no penalties in this case, and that is why the situation has remained unchanged.
If I say that I will serve 1,000 clients, I will be given $1 million. If, at the end of the year, I have not served 1,000 clients, the funding will be taken from next year's $1 million, enabling me to serve them.
This is a fairness issue. We are feeling a bit frustrated because we are being forgotten. The solution would be to send more francophones to minority communities, as was promised, and to provide the organizations that serve those people with means.
