Mr. Speaker, I assure my colleague that the Conservatives will work in support of the French language.
Not a week goes by without us hearing a story about this government's contempt for official languages. Last Thursday, the Parliamentary Budget Officer revealed that, in response to his inquiries, three departments refused to disclose their planned expenditures pertaining to the modernization of official languages. This was this first time that this officer of the House of Commons has not gotten a response.
What excuse does the Prime Minister have this time?
