Mr. Speaker, we will not be drawn into a fight about the French language.
We in the Liberal government have been clear for a very long time. We will be there to protect the French fact in Quebec and across the country. Not only will we do so here in Canada in the context of our duties as a government, contrary to what the Conservatives will say, but we are also doing this around the world. We can be very proud that the president of the Assemblée parlementaire de la Francophonie is Canadian.
I thank my colleague from Glengarry—Prescott—Russell for his work.
