My French is not as good as Mr. McCallum's, in fact it's probably worse than most people's in the country, but I will tell you we have a longstanding tradition, in the five years I've been on this committee, that we never accept anything unless it's in both official languages. That's per a promise made to Monsieur Laframboise some time ago, and we have not done so since.
