In passing, I know Mr. Lepage well. In examining Bill C‑13 and the current situation, it's also important to look at the hosting structure. As I've already mentioned, three or four months after they arrive in Canada, some immigrants stop receiving services. At the Division scolaire franco-manitobaine, we have what we call cultural agents who go and meet immigrants during the evening to speak with them, to explain how education works in Canada and to tell them that their children will inevitably learn English. The intent is to forge ties within what we refer to as the school community.
It takes money, of course, but also the federal government's resolve, to ensure that services are available in both languages everywhere.
