It will be very important for the action plan or the Official Languages Act to provide for giving communities the powers they need to repatriate francophones who study in major centres in regions with fewer francophones.
I assume that, by advocating for a territoriality-based approach, my colleague Mr. Rousseau is not writing off the possibility of adopting measures that encourage small communities that are far from major centres to repatriate those francophones so that they would contribute to the vitality of their francophone community. That is important. However, that repatriation of professionals happens when they are given the option of a healthy francophone community that is a great place to return to.
