The Official Languages Act is 52 years old. In your report, you sound the alarm. You say that French is treated as a language of translation and that there is often a perception that little progress has been made. French is in dramatic decline in the rest of Canada, but also in Quebec.
Isn't it time to question the blueprint for linguistic development behind the Official Languages Act? Obviously, the assimilation of francophones is continuing. It has even gotten significantly worse since the Official Languages Act was introduced, so much so that obtaining services in French in an emergency is very difficult.
