I propose that Bill C‑13, in clause 2, be amended by replacing lines 37 to 41 on page 2 with the following:
the importance of remedying the decline in the demographic weight of French linguistic minority communities, including by fostering the re-establishment and growth of their demographic weight;
And whereas the Government of Canada recognizes the importance of francophone immigration in enhancing the vitality of French linguistic minority communities, including by fostering the re-establishment and growth of their demographic weight;
Mr. Chair, do you also want me to talk about the rationale for this amendment?
