x I have a theory about that, but I'm not sure I should really put it forward, unless Dr. Miville or Ms. Djiemeni would like to add something.
Well then, I'll say it today. I will dare to say it here.
The federal government really does have good intentions. I believe sincerely in the federal government's good intentions with respect to francophone immigration. There is a genuine desire to move this forward. There is the community of francophone immigrant student networks and all the programs in the community that we work with every day on behalf of francophone immigrants.
Meanwhile, there is an enormous amount of work to do. We take a small step forward and senior officials take a small step forward, but there's really huge gap. Where's the message about political will? Where is the culture of the departments, the culture of work, the frameworks and everything else? When we say we want francophone refugees, does the message get to the people doing the recruitment in the field so that we can bring them to Cornwall?
