I appreciate that view. That's an important consideration. There are only a few Governor in Council appointments that have a statutory requirement for bilingualism. Those are primarily agents of Parliament. Bilingualism is something that is obviously a preference. It's always good to have bilingual candidates, but it is not.... We do ask for it in the user profile. I do believe that applicants, when they apply for a position, will be looking through the selection criteria that a particular position requires.
