Mr. Chair, first I'd like to say hello, because we haven't seen each other since last year.
I would also like to point out that I'm pleased to be back with the committee. This committee must do painstaking work to protect both official languages. I emphasize that they are English and French.
If I may, I'd like to highlight the statement made by your Liberal Party colleague Francis Drouin, who simply expressed the opinion of many francophones living outside Quebec regarding the importance of working to protect both official languages.
With respect to amendment CPC‑8, I'd simply like to say that it's a matter of terminology and that the subamendment was very relevant.
If there are no comments, we could put the question to it.
