Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you very much, Commissioner, for appearing before the committee today. I haven't yet had the opportunity to meet you formally, as a member of this committee, but I am fortunate to represent a large community of Franco-Ontarians. They account for 60% of all Franco-Ontarians. Every five years, the census tells us that we are losing ground.
I read the statement you put out on January 28, 2022, regarding the Federal Court of Appeal's decision. My fellow member Mr. Godin mentioned the decision.
What is your reaction, and what do you recommend?
You touched on Bill C‑32, but I'd like to hear your thoughts on how we can protect French through this study.
As far as the commissioner's responsibilities are concerned, what aspects can be strengthened in the bill?
