I'm sad to say I don't know about Canadians across the country, but I do feel that our colleagues—our confreres—in the the francophone community in the rest of Canada need the support of the Canadian government to ensure their existence, to ensure their continuity, to ensure their vitality and to ensure that they have access to French-language services.
We don't object to that. Not only do we not object, but we support that. We think it's important. Yes, you're right; it's important.
I'm proud of bilingualism in Canada. I'm proud of being able to speak in both languages, and I wish all Canadians were able to do that.
