What I wanted to see written into the bill, Mr. Godin, is that the federal government does its work according to its areas of jurisdiction, and that Quebec, obviously, does it within its own area of jurisdiction. We have the same objectives, that is, to ensure the vitality of the French fact, but the primary job of the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship is to promote the French fact outside Quebec, and then to work with Quebec within its jurisdiction. My answer is yes.
