Obviously we are eagerly awaiting for Justice Hogue to show us her work. I do not know if this happened, but I note that the Bloc Québécois leader offered to consult the confidential documents.

The Minister of Official Languages, who is an extremely important and influential minister in the government, will carry out the necessary coordination, because Canadian Heritage, the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages, and the Treasury Board will each have a role to play. A coordinating role is needed to make sure the job gets done.
