Mr. Speaker, my question is directed to the Minister of Transport. The day before yesterday, in response to a question from the official opposition, the Minister of Transport said that he would check Air Canada's compliance with the Official Languages Act. The minister's record as far as his department's services in French are concerned is pretty shaky, since the air navigation system still does not to provide services in French throughout Quebec's air space.
Could the minister let us know the results of his enquiries with respect to Air Canada and could he give us the assurance that the future privatization of CN and the air navigation system will not be used as an excuse for lax implementation of the Official Languages Act?
