I don't know what else I can say. I just felt it was important for me to try to deal with the problem situation involving language. That was more important than trying to deal with something where I was not even asked to mention the word official languages. Yes, I was invited as Languages Commissioner because I speak French. But I was not asked to deal with official languages in any way. Other than the fact that I was going to speak French there, it really wasn't promotion or increasing anybody's awareness or anything else.
