Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Prime Minister.
In Kelowna, British Columbia, the Heritage Canada office is designated bilingual, but no public servant there is capable of providing service in French. A study was carried out in order to identify those employees suited to learning French. The Kelowna office of Heritage Canada will therefore be providing services in French in two years.
Will the government admit that it must respond to the Fédération des francophones de la Colombie-Britannique and provide services in French to the francophones of that province earlier than two years from now?
