Mr. Speaker, the answer is simple. We have absolutely nothing to hide on this side of the House. We want to do everything we can to protect and promote the beautiful French language. That is why we are moving forward with an ambitious bill that has more bite. I hope that my hon. colleague and all the parties in the House will work with us to get this bill passed as quickly as possible.

Mr. Speaker, once again, I would like to thank my colleague for his question. As I said, Bill C-13 is now before the House of Commons and committee. Committees have important work to do. Before the bill receives royal assent, we need to do all the work to ensure that it receives royal assent. Afterwards, we can implement the bill, absolutely.

Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question. I also want to thank the Parliamentary Budget Officer for his work. Our modernization of the Official Languages Act is still being debated in Parliament, and it is customary to wait until a bill is officially passed before drafting any accompanying regulations. That is particularly important in a minority Parliament. We look forward to passing the bill as soon as possible. Once again, we hope that all opposition parties will work with us to ensure that it receives royal assent soon.
