I had a chance to speak with Radio-Canada officers Yvan Cloutier and Pierre Ouellette and to discuss what that entailed. They said it was having an enormous impact because it was helping them retain programs and consider new ones. Remember that Radio-Canada wanted to sever its relationship with Windsor at one point. This kind of investment helps guarantee that a place like Windsor will continue to do the job in its community. We had put other projects on ice, not to say in mothballs, because they no longer really believed in them. This major investment gave francophone officers a second wind because it enabled them to move forward with a number of great initiatives. There was also the issue of modernization. That's what I discussed with Mr. Cloutier.
