Okay. I move the following:
That the committee report to the House its deep condemnation of the CBC using a Paris-based audio studio to record a podcast, choosing it over a Quebecois-based recording studio to avoid the Quebec accent. Considering that this may have offended many Quebecers, the committee invite the following individuals to provide testimony on this matter: Catherine Tait, CEO of the CBC; Cesil Fernandes, Executive Producer of CBC Podcasts; Émilie Brazeau‑Béliveau, CBC/Radio-Canada's first Head of Advertising, Marketing, and Radio and Audio Public Relations; as well as the Minister of Official Languages.
Mr. Chair, I will be very brief. This situation is completely unacceptable. Canada has two official languages and we do not have to justify the place in the world of the Quebec accent, of Canadian French or of the francophonie in Canada. If we cannot be proud of our language in Canada, we have a serious problem.
This is obviously a very serious insult to Quebec, Canadian, francophone and francophile society. I could go on, but I will stop now since we do not have a lot of time.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
