Official Languages committee  There has been phenomenal growth in the number of schools offering French-language immersion programs outside Quebec, particularly since 1975. What is clear is that many parents are interested in ensuring that their children can converse in both official languages. However, I would like to go back to what you said in your first statement regarding the higher level of education and socio-economic status.

Official Languages committee  The linguistic provisions of the Criminal Code are very clear on that point.

Official Languages committee  As I mentioned in my remarks, we have a lot of contact with various federal and community partners. It is quite clear that, in the context of the roadmap, Statistics Canada has received many requests for data and information for the purpose of gaining a clearer understanding of what is going on. I talked about immigration, which is definitely a very special case.

Official Languages committee  It offers games and learning resources for students and tools specifically designed for teachers. The general public will also have access to legal informational matters of law in clear and simplified language. Once the information from the other provinces is validated, the French-speaking population in these provinces will also have access to the same information the Franco-Ontarian population has.

Linda DuPont

Industry committee  I think the concern around co-badging has certainly led to the provisions in the code and what folks viewed as the unhealthy trajectory we were on. There was confusion on both sides. The consumer wasn't sufficiently informed with clear choices, and the merchant wasn't sufficiently informed and able to make clear choices that both of those would prevail.

House debate  I will now address some of the climate change comments by the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of the Environment on February 7 as they are relevant to the discussion at hand. First, I want to make it very clear that the Kyoto protocol is a seminal agreement in modern environmental diplomacy and is the only legally binding framework for greenhouse gas emissions. I am enormously proud that my party signed it.

Bill C-11 committee  Most clients will use it in the private sector, let's say, and they will be pleased to do that, and we have no problem with that. It will help them to do that. It's clear in the law that it's possible for them to use it. Our problem is more in the non-commercial sector where it could go commercial and non-commercial. Most people in their private life won't be affected by that.

Canada-Panama Economic Growth and Prosperity Act  I think he came up with a really good solution. Considering Panama's history and reputation on these matters, it is pretty clear why this kind of agreement is absolutely necessary before signing a trade deal. This deal also fails to take real action on addressing Panama's record on the environment and workers' rights.

Bill C-11 committee  Sometimes a person could make a reproduction of 50, and it wouldn't be a problem. Each case has to be defined by itself. That's why the wording might not seem very clear, but it is for us. First of all, that wording comes from Bill C-11, from another part of Bill C-11, where they tried to define “non-commercial” for purposes other than photography. Somebody has thought about that and defined the term “non-commercial”.

Bill C-11 committee  I think it may be possible for a very few elite blind Canadians to do it, but it isn't even clear that these tools will be accessible for any blind Canadian. We may not be able to exercise the right at all.

February 27th, 2012Committee meeting

Marc Workman

Bill C-11 committee  The issue that I raise is that I suspect it will be difficult to find access to those tools. It's not clear that the tools will be accessible, so I believe it will be a right that can't easily be exercised by the average blind Canadian.

Marc Workman

Canada-Panama Economic Growth and Prosperity Act  We are talking about something that is important to the lives of Canadians, their jobs and their ability to support their families. I think my debate has been clear. It is as though the Conservative government is like a chef that has prepared a very tiny snack of a few peanuts and spent the same amount of time for which that chef could have prepared a healthy meal for a family.

Agriculture committee  I think we've been pretty clear. We think the problem lies within supply management.
