Under the Official Languages Division, one of your responsibilities is the revitalization of languages. As you know, the group I represent —especially the Gwich’in language — is being threatened. Now you have the responsibility that used to be under the onus of the Languages Commissioner.
Have you enhanced those dollars to go to the different cultural organizations, and is there a top-up to those organizations that have language difficulties to ensure they’re able to salvage those languages that are being threatened? I’d just like to know that. Is there ability for those groups to receive more money based on these different programs because of the circumstances they find their languages in?
