Mr. Chairman, the Languages Commissioner has already said that where it is reasonable, that language should be used. In her opening statement she introduced her staff. I do not see any staff there that speak the Dogrib language, nor the South Slavey, nor the Chipewyan language. Those are the people who are being affected by the Languages Commissioner's office. Why did she choose to do the opposite of her mandate with regard to reasonable use of language in this case?
