Thank you very much, Mr. Desjardins.
I'm going to use the time I have left for Mr. Deveau and look at the subject from another angle.
You talked about the essential role of international students. We know that the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship announced a few weeks ago that Canada was would be reducing the number of international students it receives. Unfortunately, we didn't hear any promise that French‑language institutions would be granted an exemption. Representatives of the Association des collèges et universités de la francophonie canadienne told us that they were very concerned about this situation. Our institutions and communities depend on international students. What's very concerning is that the international community has already heard this announcement, and people are already thinking of studying elsewhere instead of coming to Canada.
Can you share your views and recommendations with us? Do you think it would be important to have an exemption for students who will be studying solely in French?
