Therefore, we will wait until Wednesday to discuss the motions.

As for the representatives of the Association franco-yukonnaise, we will tell them to wait a little because for the time being we are taking a more comprehensive approach.

At this point, we know that we will be meeting with the judge on Tuesday, May 3, at a dinner.

Mr. Choquette, you have the floor.

Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I don't believe I have the dates for the appearance of the Commissioner of Official Languages and the Treasury Board representatives. May I ask the Clerk to update the calendar, or have you already sent it?

I think it would be appropriate to do so in order to refresh everyone's memory.

The Clerk can send the calendar of upcoming and already scheduled work. All of you will receive these documents.

Are there any other questions or comments? Apparently not.

Thank you very much.

I would like to invite all of you, if you so wish, to join the French delegation. The meeting will be held in my office. Cocktails will be served from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. in Room 100 of the Justice Building.

Thank you very much and see you on Wednesday.
