And you're entirely right, Minister. However, I've read Bill C‑13, and it makes no provision for any tools or means for a minister, prime minister or government to compel the appointment of a specific percentage of francophones to the boards of federally regulated institutions in Canada.
I understand that you rely on people's good faith, but, as we've seen in the past, Air Canada hasn't demonstrated any willingness to include francophones in its senior management over the past 45 years. What obviously happens is that this attitude trickles down through the organization.
These organizations have a lot of problems. Earlier you mentioned leadership. You rely on the good faith of those managers. Isn't that an error on the government's part?
The past is an indication of what the future holds, and we've seen what's been done.
