Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague again for the opportunity to speak to this extremely important issue.
Like him, I share the sentiment that the right to work in French in the public service is an absolutely essential right.
However, unlike him, I recognize that we are working very well and very productively with the Commissioner of Official Languages. We will continue to do so because he is vital to ensuring that the public service always completely respects freedom of choice of language and the ability to work in the language of one's choice.
