Mr. Speaker, would you like some evidence that francophones are second-class citizens in Canada?
At the RCMP, 16,000 jobs are English essential, but only 19 are French essential. That is so ridiculous and over-the-top that it seems like a joke. An independent Quebec will have a police force that speaks French.
That is Canada, a country that scorns Quebeckers and all francophones. It is shameful.
How can the minister explain this disgraceful situation?
