Mr. Speaker, that is not at all true.
We know that a more bilingual public service is what will best meet the needs of Canadians. Receiving government services in either official language is a fundamental right.
We continue to protect and promote the French language. We are determined to foster a work environment that is conducive to the use of French and English.

Mr. Speaker, I am also speaking with the commissioner. I have held discussions with him, with everyone in our government and in our country to tell them that, as President of the Treasury Board, I am committed to implementing parts IV, V and VI of the Official Languages Act in federal institutions. It is very important work.
As I said, we are committed to fostering a work environment conducive to the use of English and French in the public service.

Mr. Speaker, I am an anglophone, but I speak French.
What did he say? I can speak French in the House and I can speak with all representatives of public services in French or English.
I am going to continue trying to implement parts IV, V and VI of the Official Languages Act. That is my responsibility and our priority.
