Thank you.
My thanks to all the witnesses for their testimony. Their passion for the issue is very clear.
Last week, we were told that, in 1982, when the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms was created, 37% of secondary students continued to post-secondary level. Today, that figure is 72%. Many more secondary students are continuing their studies to post-secondary level.
However, the Charter protects the language rights of students at secondary level, but not those of students at post-secondary level. This is a problem that concerns us all.
Could you tell us more about the vitality of the communities and the number of registrations in francophone post-secondary institutions in Ontario? Last Tuesday, we heard from representatives of the Campus Saint‑Jean and they reported an increase. Has there been a drop, is it stable or has there been an increase?
Mrs. Cardinal, do you have any comments on the subject?
