Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Yes, we can consider other languages. I will also advise the honourable Member that section 70 deals with the recognition of the official languages. Section 71 deals with language of instruction --which we deferred --and section 73 deals with additional languages as subjects. That's what it is. I can advise the honourable Member that in lqaluit, programs are being offered in English, French and Inuktitut. That is already occurring and can occur in aboriginal communities. In fact, in aboriginal communities, we can also move to teach in aboriginal languages now, under the new act, we are already doing that in some cases. Thank you.
