Madam Chair, the Government of Quebec has been promising for quite some time to strengthen Bill 101. That could help.
I want to point out to my colleague from Mount Royal that Bill 101 seeks to make French the common language. We did not want to do what English Canada did to francophones when it banned French institutions and education. We maintained English institutions for the historic anglophone community. However, those should be exceptions. Other than that, services should be offered everywhere in French. As a result, newcomers will need to learn French and integrate.
I found it very surprising that a unionist like the member for Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie is saying that incentives are required but not legislative measures, such as requiring a knowledge of French. If newcomers do not think it is essential to speak French, then they will not be interested in French language training initiatives.
It takes both of these things. As with health and safety at work, if there is no incentive, almost nothing happens.
