Thank you, Madam Chair.
I'd like to welcome the witnesses who are with us for the second hour of our study.
Mr. Labrie, you have had an impressive career, particularly as an expert on bilingualism, language policy and the humanities. You have highlighted issues that are crucial for the future of French in Canada. You have closely observed the dynamic between language and research throughout your career, both as part of your work on linguistic pluralism and as head of the Fonds de recherche du Québec.
Given your many years of experience and your commitment to the francophone community, how do you perceive the vitality of French in the scientific field today, and what specific measures do you suggest to strengthen its vitality, particularly through the new capstone organization?
