Madam Speaker, the minister talked a lot about the importance of protecting French in minority situations, in other words, outside Quebec. I would like to hear her opinion on whether French is also in jeopardy in Quebec. Can she point to even a single measure in Bill C-13 that improves the status of French specifically in Quebec?

Mr. Speaker, I congratulate my hon. colleague on her speech. She said she agreed with the principle that French is a minority language in Canada. What does she think of the fact that all of the Quebec government's requests have been refused or else accepted but in a very ambiguous way? Does she understand that Quebec should be allowed to implement its own territoriality policies? I see that as a condition for ensuring the future of French in Quebec and in North America.

Madam Speaker, my question will be similar to the one I asked earlier. We have heard a lot about francophone minority communities, but I would like to speak more specifically about Quebec. Can my colleague name a single positive measure that provides further protection for Quebec? I want to forestall a potential answer and clarify that giving people the right to work in French in Quebec is not a positive measure and does not improve the situation of French in Quebec.
