The subamendment establishes the guidelines required for the implementation of the duty in question. The federal government does indeed have a duty to ensure that the services actually provided by third parties on behalf of the federal government are offered in both official languages. The wording establishes these guidelines while underscoring the fact that it is understood that a mayor financial contribution from the federal government to a third party is not enough to call for the application of proposed subsection 25(1). We believe that the modified amendment meets the criteria set out by the Supreme Court of Canada in CALDECH, the landmark case for relations between principals and agents.
