Official Languages committee When did I meet Mr. Fraser? --last summer-- It was in the summer, when he came to the meeting of agency heads. In fact, it wasn't a face-to-face meeting.

Official Languages committee We could do that. We worked very closely, Mr. Fraser and I, when I was president of the Council of the Network of Official Languages Champions. Yes, absolutely, we can meet. Moreover, we are going to analyze the results because we ourselves were surprised. We're not pleased with

Official Languages committee Yes, I believe so. I think the commissioner does very useful work that sends very useful messages about how we work.

Official Languages committee No, the act is right. What I'm saying is that, even with the act, we have to go further personally. It's also a matter of people, individuals, who have to get involved in this linguistic duality. That was my message.

Official Languages committee We honestly haven't had to discuss it with Heritage at any.... We're quite autonomous in the way we administer our act, and this was not subject to discussion.

Official Languages committee I'm aware of that difficulty, of course. However, once again, I'm a bit surprised at the results because, since I've been at the head of the organization—and even before that, when Mr. Wilson was there, because I was very close to the subject as well—all employees wrote in the la

Official Languages committee My answer is yes. I encourage it and I know that my management committee encourages it as well.

Official Languages committee Yes, but as I am an agency head, I don't attend the deputy ministers' breakfast on Wednesday. We have lunch once a month on themes—

Official Languages committee There haven't been since I've been there. There have been at the meetings of the small agency heads. There have been at that time.

Daniel J. Caron
Official Languages committee Yes, we have bilingual resources and we also have bilingual profiles. I was a bit surprised, and that's why we're going to conduct some slightly more sporadic audits based on the commissioner's methodology. We were surprised by that mark. Our resources are bilingual, and we aren
