Hon. Claude Carignan: My question is for the Government Representative in the Senate. On May 18, I filed a complaint with the Commissioner of Official Languages for non-compliance by the Public Order Emergency Commission with respect to the translation, on its website, of the English documentation submitted by the Prime Minister’s Office and the Privy Council, including an extremely important document, a far from insignificant one, namely the memorandum invoking the Emergency Measures Act, which was the basis for cabinet’s decision.

This memorandum was written in English only. It is redacted, in part, but the part that’s not redacted is in English only, which isn’t very useful for francophones.

Minister Petitpas Taylor said that this was unacceptable. If that’s so, will the government commit to producing the French translation of the English documentation that is on the Public Order Emergency Commission website and was submitted as evidence?
