Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question.
As I mentioned in my own speech, it is important to protect the French language everywhere. It would be despicable if a province acted in retaliation and decided to subject its francophone minority to a law to protect the English language. French is a linguistic minority in North America, not just in Canada, while English is in the majority everywhere.
We hope that this bill will help francophones across Canada stand tall and demand equal rights.
