Official Languages committee  Yes, definitely. I must tell you that, at a meeting of the board of directors, an annual general meeting held yesterday, we ratified the appointment of a representative from Nunavut to the board. This is the first time we have had a Nunavut representative at RDÉE, and I believe it's a good start.

Official Languages committee  There are human resources forums. We try to help small and medium enterprises that may not have any personnel training expertise. We have courses. In some provinces, we have cooperation forums, either with the university or with other economic development agencies, to respond to the needs of small and medium enterprises.

Official Languages committee  I can give you the figures by province for the period from 2008 to 2011. The amount was $520,000 for Prince Edward Island, $750,000 for New Brunswick, $520,000 for Newfoundland and Labrador, $520,000 for Manitoba, $2 million for Ontario, $334,000 for Nunavut, $519,000 for British Columbia, $520,000 for Alberta, $520,000 for Saskatchewan and $334,000 for the Northwest Territories.

Official Languages committee  There were various projects in certain provinces. In Nova Scotia, we worked a lot in the tourism field and with entrepreneurs. For example, there are lobster fishermen in my region. They are the best lobster fishermen in Canada.

Official Languages committee  We also worked with young fishermen to form businesses, cooperatives and find better markets. As you know, that's good for consumers, but the price of lobster won't be very high, depending on what we can see on the Nova Scotia market these days. I hope that will be reflected in Toronto and that you can eat some.

Official Languages committee  The same is true for me. Without Radio-Canada, without that means of communication... It is important in the regions, especially in the rural regions, as Ms. Gagné said. The community radio stations are there, but that doesn't meet the full range of our needs. I'm not aware of the comments, but a cut in services to Canada's francophone population would be unacceptable.
