Official Languages committee  I'm going to ask you to repeat the last part of the question, because I've tried to remember everything. As for the debates, their ratings, I don't have them with me, but I can forward you what we have. We were asked after the first one. It really depends, but it was quite good.

Official Languages committee  That's a very good question. In fact, we actually produce 38 hours of original content per week, and you're right, sometimes it gets pushed when the House sits late.

Official Languages committee  That is a dream. I have to say that it is not up to us. That decision must be made by the different cable companies. Having said that, we are aware of the problem. In Ottawa, for example, given that access to CPAC English audio is on channel 24, people wonder why the French is o

Official Languages committee  You have made many good arguments. I am nodding in approval, because it is music to my ears. Some people might think it is somewhat difficult, but it isn't.
