Federal-provincial agreements, which you discussed earlier with Mr. Théberge, are really important. Having said that, I think asymmetry is the right approach. Yes, it's important that the federal government step in and that there be language clauses in the agreements between the federal government and the other provinces, particularly with respect to access to child care services in French. I believe Ms. Ashton talked about this at the last committee meeting. I agree that it's a very important aspect. However, I support an asymmetric approach in Quebec. The federal government should really let Quebec implement its language policy. I believe that the Quebec government is doing more to protect French, but that our anglophone compatriots are still protected by rights. I feel we've struck a certain balance. There could be more for French, but at least we have a balance.
Therefore, the federal government need not worry about the Quebec government's language policies with respect to the linguistic minority. On the other hand, it should perhaps be more concerned about language policy in the other provinces.
