For years, every francophone advocacy group in this country has been making two essential requests of the government of the day: first, centralize the power to implement and enforce the act within the Treasury Board; and second, strengthen the powers of the Commissioner of Official Languages.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7429109\" data-originallang=\"fr\">My question for the minister is simple. Will she act on these two essential demands that are being made by all stakeholders across the country?</p>",
