No, we're not recognized by Quebec as a minority language, and I understand why. There are laws and whatever, but the mechanics of it don't have to go so deeply as to when the feds ask to give out money.
I'll give you the example here that in other provinces, services agreements for very small populations are in the millions of dollars a year. In Quebec the services agreement is $400,000 a year. Where is that money discussed and divvied up? It's à la conférence ministérielle de la francophonie, and we're not at that table.
That's why we wanted to come and visit you so badly. We are not at many tables. We have to be at the tables to share our experiences, and we have to demonstrate what we need. We are not at many tables, and we have so many gaps in our policy capacity.
For instance, we don't have a French-language association of jurists.
We're getting one soon. We didn't have one before. We don't have an immigration component. There are so many places where we are not heard that we are going to come scratching at your door any time we can so you can hear us, because we don't get heard that often.
