Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Premier. Mr. Speaker, I have no problem in having services done in the French language. I think every language, either Inuktitut, other aboriginal languages, English, French and others are God-given languages. Each and every person has the right to that in Canada. Mr. Speaker, my problem is, in my community there are about 300 people who use Inuktitut as a first language; there are about 10 people in that community who use English as a first language; and, about two people in that community who use French as a first language, Mr. Speaker.

As I indicated earlier, I have no problem. But this seems to be a little odd to me. Especially when this government, through the Premier, lays off the government liaison officers, executive service officers who, in my community, in most cases, are used by the Inuktitut-speaking people who are not able to find interpreters and translators. My question to the Premier, Mr. Speaker, is who pays for the provision of French services for offices which have no French speaking employees? Thank you.
