That could be the solution.
New Brunswick is the only officially bilingual province, even though Quebec is also bilingual. In fact, according to the British North America Act, all of our laws must be bilingual. At the National Assembly of Quebec, one can freely speak English. A minister was even criticized for responding in French to a question posed in English last week at the National Assembly.
I ask myself some serious questions about the Official Languages Act. In my opinion, because of the very important cultural rivalries and the political culture in Canada, this act is not being implemented adequately.
This brings me to my second question.
As interim commissioner, do you believe that regional bilingualism, as in Switzerland, could be a solution? Each region would have a referendum to choose a language, and this choice would then be applied. Do you find this revolutionary, too dangerous? What is your perspective on this subject?
