Madam Speaker, I thank the hon. member for his thoughtful series of questions. I could say as to when and how this has been discussed I was a member of the commission Gendron. I spent four years hearing representations throughout Quebec on the educational system, among other things.
There were very learned studies. Since I also taught in Quebec over a period of five years including at one French language university, it was very much a subject of discussion. Although it may appear strange outside Quebec, as something new and different, it has been very much a part of Quebec thinking.
