I can refer to part VII of the Official Languages Act, which talks about the desire to restore the proportion of francophones outside Quebec to 6.1%, which is what it used to be. To do that, the preferred tool is immigration. However, from 2003-04 to about 2022-23, the government met its target only once, in the last year of the program.
It's all well and good to set a target of 7%, 8%, 9% or 10% of francophones outside Quebec, or even more, but for that to happen, all the necessary elements and structures must really be in place to support those people.
When you're an immigrant, your situation is very complex. You leave one country and arrive in another country with a host society. Programs must be put in place to ensure that those people have a job, housing and access to education. It's not enough to recruit x number of people who speak French or English. All the necessary support has to be put in place for those people.
In francophone minority communities, it is even more important to ensure employability, housing, access to education and so on for those people, as otherwise they will leave for the larger centres. So that is extremely important.
