Certainly I have heard a lot from people who are advocates for deaf and hard-of-hearing people. I wonder if the minister can confirm that she believes that the Senate amendments would adequately address those who have been calling for additional protections for American sign language, <em>langue des signes qu\u00e9b\u00e9coise</em> and international sign language, and, if not, if she has identified any gaps and how those might be addressed in the regulations.</p>",

Des gens ont beaucoup milit\u00e9 en faveur des personnes sourdes et malentendantes. La ministre peut-elle confirmer si, \u00e0 son avis, les amendements propos\u00e9s au S\u00e9nat satisferaient ceux qui ont demand\u00e9 des protections suppl\u00e9mentaires pour le langage des signes am\u00e9ricain, la langue des signes qu\u00e9b\u00e9coise et la langue des signes internationale? Sinon, quelles lacunes a-t-elle relev\u00e9es et comment pourraient-elles \u00eatre combl\u00e9es dans le r\u00e8glement?</p>"
