Hon. Claude Carignan: My question is for the Leader of the Government. Leader, the government’s official languages track record is a disaster. We saw further evidence of that when the Commissioner of Official Languages tabled his 2022-23 annual report a few days ago.

The report shows that, between 2013-14 and 2022-23, there was an increase of over 300% just in the number of admissible complaints about institutions that serve the travelling public. Compared to the previous year, it is an increase of 500%.

The reason for this is not just that there have been more complaints about Air Canada. There have been more complaints about all of the other services, including the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority, the airports, VIA Rail and the Canada Border Services Agency.

Can you explain why this government is doing such a terrible, disastrous job on official languages?
