Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I want to thank my colleagues here present, both in person and virtually.
My first question is for Ms. Montreuil.
You raised a very important point. It's true that research conducted in French is on the decline in Canada and around the world and isn't proportionally representative of the global francophone population. The vice-chair and I are also discussing that issue.
We're trying to determine how to stimulate scientific research and establish incentives so that it's published more extensively around the world. I know there are excellent researchers in Canada. The aim of these discussions is also to give them access to French-language infrastructure and vehicles and francophone universities, or at the very least enable them to dialogue in French.
How can that aspect be linked to Bill C‑13?
Then I'll discuss positive measures with you.
