Thank you.
Earlier, you gave a few examples, and we can come back to them later, but I would like the data to be sent to me eventually. I use the data from the Public Accounts of Canada. Other ways to get data are available, but they will not fundamentally change anything.
The fact remains that the federal government's support for official languages in Quebec is granted essentially to promote English. The support is given to groups that promote English. There is no doubt that no group advocating for French receives a penny from the federal government. That is why I believe that at a time when French is more threatened than ever and when we have a new amended version of the Official Languages Act, it is essential that the federal government change its approach.
Let us go back to the use of French. According to the Office québécois de la langue française, of all the workplaces in Quebec, such as banks and businesses, federal institutions are the ones where French is the least used as a common language. It certainly does not help the situation of the French language.
What do you think? Is there a way to change that?
