Official Languages committee  As you can see, we like to hear ourselves talk. No, I think we've more or less said it all. If you have any more specific questions to ask us later, you know where to find us. For the moment, and to avoid encroaching on other people's time, I have nothing to add.

Official Languages committee  The federal Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages has bases across Canada. It has an office in Moncton. It's under federal jurisdiction. It's not provincial.

Michel Carrier

Official Languages committee  We're all troubled by the populist movement around the world. Everyone has his or her own interpretation of what's happening. I think people in that group feel detached and not heard. They don't feel they're part of the decision-making process. Yesterday, I was listening to an e

Official Languages committee  I'm not sure I understand your question about wearing too many hats and being less effective. As Mr. Boileau said earlier, we are cheerleaders. We're the only ones.
