Thank you, Mr. Chair.
If I have any time left, I'll gladly give it to my colleague, Mr. Williamson. However, when you're passionate, sometimes you don't see the time go by. I hope that I'll be able to give him the floor.
I have a few questions, but I'll start by thanking the representatives of three organizations who came to speak today.
I'll start by asking Mr. Dupuis a question.
Mr. Lefebvre referred earlier to the previous Conservative government for political purposes. I, for one, am very proud of what the Conservatives did for the francophonie. I'll ask you a very simple question, Mr. Dupuis.
A budget was tabled last week. Since the start of this meeting, you have referred more than once to the importance of creating opportunities to use French in everyday life. Of course, these opportunities must be available in post-secondary institutions, but you also talked about the pre-school years.
Have you suggested to the current government that, as part of the child care program, the provinces be required to open French-language daycares in provinces with French-speaking minorities?
Has this been proposed to the government?
