Mr. Speaker, first of all, that would depend on whether there is a request that has been submitted by the parents of that particular community for a French first-language school. Secondly, it would depend on whether the submission and proposal meets the criteria that have been established under the languages agreement between this government and the Government of Canada. Generally speaking, the Government of Canada is totally responsible for paying for the issue of French first- language education. We would have to work out the terms and conditions with the Government of Canada.
