There's a lot in that question. I'll try to address some of the points.
First of all, in terms of the number of requests and the capacity of the school system to offer immersion, one of the biggest issues, I'm sure you're aware, is the number of competent teachers available, which creates a bottleneck.
Another thing that is worth noting is that the federal support for second language education, be it French or English, will in the case of French in large part go toward immersion, but there are also other methods of teaching French that are not immersion based and that do not necessarily work as well as immersion. There is intensive French, and there's basic French. You can't discount these two types, which sometimes also benefit from the federal funding.
With respect to the French minority school systems—you've heard a lot about them—we also have heard and keep talking with our partners from the Fédération nationale des conseils scolaires francophones and have heard from individual members around the tables at the consultations that the minister and Mr. Boissonnault held. It has been a very frequent topic of discussion.
We'd like to have discussions, in the course of renewing our partnership with the provinces, whereby these issues will be addressed both from the point of view of better integrating the conseils scolaires in the discussions we're having with the provinces and from the point of view of the clarity and the quantity of the reporting that is done. This is definitely on our table de travail.
