Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I had a question for Madam Boyer with regard to the understanding of proposed section 45.1 in terms of this idea of co-operation. I seem to see a contradiction, and I'm going to explain myself. It reads:
taking into account the diversity of the provincial and territorial language regimes that contribute to the advancement of the equality of status and use of English and French in Canadian society,
Then I look to proposed paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d). As mentioned, (a), (c) and (d) speak to the constitutional element of both English and French. Proposed paragraph (b) only speaks to the Quebec Charter of the French language, which makes it only French. Do you not see a contradiction in terms of the writing of proposed section 45.1, when we're trying to state the advancement of the equality of the state of both French and English?
