Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for his question. Our government remains firmly committed to protecting and promoting French across the country. The decision to appeal the ruling of the Court of Queen's Bench does not in any way compromise our commitment to protecting and promoting linguistic duality, which includes our modernization of the Official Languages Act. Going forward, our government is committed to appointing bilingual lieutenant governors in New Brunswick, starting with the next appointment process.
