Thank you. You make a critical point.
That's why recommendation 2 in the brief I submitted highlights the pivotal role of the federal government and applauds the Official Languages Act, because it is quite an achievement in itself. However, there's a little more to do.
The Conseil des écoles fransaskoises recommends that, in accordance with section 41 in part VII of the Official Languages Act, the Government of Canada fully exercise its spending power to support the effective implementation of substantive equivalence.
“Substantive equivalence” refers to the aspect you raised, Mr. Godin. This is to ensure that wherever the provinces are failing, the federal government can step in if, of course, the data, the indicators from the councils and the provinces warrant it.
