Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Ms. Paré, for being with us. I believe your expertise will be very helpful in our study.
I want you to know that, at the Standing Committee on Official Languages, we’re here to find a balance between the protection of French and the survival of businesses that are, in part, within the ecosystem of French song broadcasters.
You talked about Billie du Page and how she was very happy to be at the top of the charts. I’m happy for her too. A long time ago, we used to listen closely to compilations on Sundays. It gives away my age, but back then, those rankings were very important. I can therefore understand all the pride she must have felt.
Earlier, you said that, according to Numeris, 84% of Canadians listened to the radio.
Is that right?
