Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to thank the witnesses for joining us today. I appreciate your analyses, which frankly seem to be very accurate, and I am sure that you have taken the time to establish your positions.
Earlier this week, we heard from the representatives of the Language Technologies Research Centre. You are probably familiar with Mr. Barabé and Mr. Bernardi. They warned us about the Portage software and suggested that, if public servants were to use it, they should be told that it is a tool to help with comprehension and not a translation or communication tool. I would like to hear your opinion on that.
They also told us that public servants already use Google Translate extensively. With Google Translate, as soon as a text is submitted for translation, it no longer belongs to anyone and ends up on other servers. I would also like to know what you think about that.
