In this case, I’m going to talk about settlement services. Your motion talks about settlement services. The needs for settlement services are extremely diverse. There are people who arrive here with a binder full of information about the area where they will settle, while others arrive with a bag only.
In our view, it seems unwise to put a lot of effort, energy and government money into settlement services. Perhaps it would be better to promote the bilingualism of the resources already available in the various Canadian and Quebec communities, in order to ensure a better integration of francophone immigrants in these communities.
