You raised a very good point regarding the language of work, especially in technological areas. That's always a challenge. In my opinion, it's particularly important that these employees don't lose the right to work in French in workshops or other Air Canada work places which, because of restructuring, belong to Jazz. It's important that that right be underscored and maintained.
You are indeed right. According to my understanding of the restructuring, Air Canada serves the major national and international routes, and Jazz is the link between more isolated places or communities that have more difficulty, as you said. I believe that the company has an important role to play in those communities.
With regard to other airlines, I've answered in part by telling Ms. Barbot that in some places in Canada, there was no opportunity to work in French, even within the federal government.
For example, if we were to impose all the provisions of the Official Languages Act on a company based in Calgary, that would mean that company would have significant recruitment problems. I don't think we should necessarily take for granted that by imposing rules in situations where there's no natural link with an existing community, we will necessarily contribute to respect for both official languages.
In my opinion, if we don't take into account the fact that there are unilingual communities in this country, we run the risk of having more problems than solutions.
