Madam Speaker, three days after the federal government's big show about protecting French, nothing has changed on the ground.
CBC/Radio-Canada revealed that, in its job posting, the federal government said that fluency in both official languages would be preferable. For a museum in Quebec that serves a large population of Franco-Ontarians and that is supposed to hire employees who speak French, fluency in French is not preferable; it is essential.
After all of the debates we have had this year about the decline of French, how can the federal government still be so negligent?
