Mr. Speaker, to a degree I find the minister's reply reassuring or encouraging. But according to our information, and the minister is well placed to tell us if it is incorrect, the department is getting ready to try and have the court disallow the official language commissioner's application.
Why has the minister decided to take the same approach as his predecessors who, for 26 years, have refused to allow francophones on military bases access to services in French, although it
knows the disastrous consequences this will have for these families?
