The fact remains that efforts have been made. For example, there were recently six airport employee positions to be filled at St. John's, Newfoundland. We determined we had to hire six bilingual people. Finding six unilingual employees for the airport in St. John's would have taken us three hours, but in this case, we needed two days. We conducted interviews. The Regroupement de développement économique et d'employabilité helped us. I believe that the employees are newcomers. They are people whose first language is French and who have immigrated to Newfoundland. They are also proud to be employed by the national carrier. This experience tells us that it is possible to find bilingual employees when we make efforts to make it happen.
