We benefit from active listening. We have an ongoing consultation process that touches every facet and dimension of the entire Canadian cultural sector. As I've already said, the process is far from over, and a very important step is just around the corner.
As my colleague Mr. Quinty explained earlier, it's the CRTC website that informs us of upcoming consultations. On March 25, we met with the CRTC as part of its focus group. At the time, we were given to understand that we would soon be very happy and privileged, because an important public consultation phase was being prepared that would address our concerns in greater detail. Since then, information has been updated on the site. An entry entitled “Summer 2024” indicates that it refers to an exceptional activity aimed at strengthening the CRTC's commitment to official languages, but it does not mention public consultation per se.
We have recently expressed our concern about this watered‑down language, but we have received all the preliminary assurances that the intention is still to consult us regarding the new section 5.2 of the Broadcasting Act, which has strengthened the way in which we are to be consulted, precisely, and has provided details on how to proceed. We're very much looking forward to this stage. We need to know when it's going to happen so we can prepare properly.
