Senator Alex White is trying to anticipate where there might be a conflict in the future and where there might be a possibility of two interpretations arising from the two languages, French and English. There can be no doubt that English, being a constitutional language in this country, is the language in which it will be interpreted in the event of that happening. As I stated, I will look at this matter again and we can revisit it on Report Stage.
