Madam Speaker, the basis of today's motion is contempt, the denigration of Quebec French. We sometimes see it in the House when members who represent majority francophone ridings in Quebec speak mainly in English. There are some members I have never even heard speak French, despite the fact that they represent majority francophone ridings. This contempt and denigration can be heard in a lot of places.
The Liberals have an odd habit. Every time official languages are mentioned in their legislation, they are actually referring to protecting minorities. In Quebec, that means protecting the anglophone minority. This minority is extremely well treated in Quebec. As we know, my colleague from La Pointe-de-l'Île even wrote a report about it. The money that the Liberals send to Quebec is not intended to protect or promote the French language, but to help Quebec's minority.
When will the Liberals understand that, if they respect and really like Quebec, they should start protecting the French language and stop interfering in Quebec's business?
