Thank you for being here, gentlemen, Ms. Drzystek.
First, please excuse me for arriving 10 or 15 minutes late.
I am really full of admiration for you. In my eyes, you are like missionaries. You are anglophones and you are promoting French language and culture in areas like education.
Mr. Bentley, just now, you said that you take living in French for granted, that it is normal for you. On this committee, our concern is trying to catch children when they are very young, preparing them to go to elementary school in French and to ensure that they take it for granted.
What do you think about someone living in a francophone bubble at a very early age? Does the direction that children take in their subsequent studies, or the ease with which they can continue in French and English, depend on the fact that they have been immersed in French culture, or that they will be able to learn in French?
That was a long question. Do you want to answer it, Mr. Anderson?
