Yes. I wouldn’t go so far as to say that it has led to a rift, but it definitely had an impact. Earlier, Mr. Godin mentioned that the French language was a sensitive issue. It is sensitive, but I also think that everyone around the table agrees that that the French language should be protected and defended, at least I hope so.
In my opinion, the Official Languages Act really divided francophones across Canada when it was enacted in 1969. The Société Saint‑Jean‑Baptiste de Montréal has a fund, the Fondation pour la langue française, which originated from the Fonds Langelier. Every year, we support organizations outside Quebec that defend the French language. This fund is intended to be a link that we are creating to continue trying to counter, in a way, this more questionable episode.
