They know what their funds are going to be right now. I'm sorry.
First of all, for education that's what we're doing. We concluded a four-year agreement exactly because of what you're saying, exactly because they needed money for strategic planning. That's the whole thing in education. We're talking about $1 billion.

No. This is education. Education is not for next year. Education is for four years, and it's $1 billion we're putting into education for four years.
As far as communities are concerned, they have their budget now. They know what their budget actually is. Because of the action plan, they know it could have an added value of 4%. They know that; they can plan on that; it's there. The only thing is, now they really want an increase in their funding for next year, so what we're saying is that we are going to build a case for them.

I'm going to tell you about the Protocol of Agreement and Hubert will talk about the terms of payment. An individual agreement was signed with the provinces for this year, 2004-2005; funds can therefore be paid until June. Most of the provinces customarily do the cash management, but the money is there for this year.
Our challenge was to sign a long-term agreement with all the provinces on education, which is a provincial jurisdiction. All the terms and conditions had to be met. We weren't talking about the long term for this year. When I arrived, we could only talk about one year, since the long-term agreements were being prepared. Today, the Protocol guarantees our long-term participation, for the next four years. The funds for this year are consolidated; next year and in the following three years, there will be an automatic payment based on the Protocol.

The people responsible for the colleges said they had money for this year, but that they didn't know what would happen next year and thereafter. All that definitely depended on the signing of the Protocol.
The long term — because you have to ensure the long term — also depended on signing and on the agreement we had with the Council of Ministers of Education. That's obviously our first stakeholder, since education is a provincial jurisdiction.
So we had to negotiate. Those negotiations were extremely intense. I had to talk to the ministers of education on a number of occasions. We talked about the Protocol and all the bilateral negotiations. But today...

Yes. Today I can tell you that the Protocol has been accepted. The long-term, four-year plan has been accepted. Every two years, we sit down with our main partners, that is to say the provinces, to determine whether there are any adjustments to be made.
The communities are pleased. The provinces have accepted. Honestly, it's normal for it to be intense because we negotiate with the 10 partners, plus the territories. You'll also have to agree on terms and conditions. Our partners agreed at the outset to consult their groups, that is to say the school boards, the colleges and so on. They agreed to make sure there was a dialogue with their groups. That's in the Protocol of Agreement. They also agreed to report to the public on progress made each year with regard to minority language education and second-language instruction.

There are two things for the communities. They have an increase under the action plan. The communities are telling us now — you heard them, as I did — that they are the watchdogs in the community and that they need more. They say the needs are growing, perhaps because, in a way, they are the victims of their own success. Needs are increasing. More and more minority Francophones are joining the groups.
We've made this...

I think so. We've done a tour. I was in Manitoba last week. I think their needs are justified.
Do they amount to $10, $18 or $20 million? That's what we have to know. The Action Plan for Official Languages currently provides for a 10 percent increase, which amounts to roughly $2.5, $3 or perhaps $4 million. We want to take care of community radio stations because we think that's fundamentally important. However, a month and a half before the budget, we can't say we think we need $18 million, when we're evaluating certain groups to determine whether the contribution of all the groups we support is significant and whether other groups should be supported.

It wasn't done this morning: on March 31, the texts were approved by officials and the Chair of the Council of Ministers of Education, Jean-Marc Fournier. However, the text of the Protocol also had to be officially approved by all the ministers. Last week, two ministers had not yet signed, and only one was left yesterday. Nunavut signed last night, and that's why I can announce it today.

First of all, the Protocol is a framework for action, and that's why it was important to sign it. I'm going to let Hubert give you the details on the figures. At bottom, there's $655 million. How is that divided? I'll leave that to Hubert. The negotiations were completed and the provinces ratified the agreement.
The Protocol constitutes the action plan under which money will be paid. Where there is a Protocol and money, there are also responsibilities. The communities were asking us for more responsibility and tighter accountability. They also wanted to be consulted. All that is also part of the Protocol itself. We also had to agree with the provinces and the provinces had to accept it, which they willingly did.
That's why, every two years, as provided in the Protocol, we have to sit down and see whether there are any things to correct, in order to be sure that the terms and conditions of application are being met.

As regards Canada Day, I'm going to answer you immediately. I readjusted the budget, and the provinces, including New Brunswick, will receive much more money this year, first of all.

Give me the time; I just got here.
Second, for the communities, there was an increase of approximately $4 million in 1999-2000. Right now, we're talking about a 10 percent increase, which would represent $3.5 million this year. We're talking about that.
We're talking about a significant increase. We have to be able to tell the communities, after conducting the evaluation... We don't do the community evaluation ourselves; they have to do it as well. I've gone to New Brunswick quite often, to Manitoba as well, and people who are very involved in those communities tell us that some associations, some groups deserve to be funded, and others less so, because times are changing. Some groups should also work together, or else merge. It's not up to us to do that; it's up to the communities to take that in hand. We'll present them with our evaluation and ask them what they think of it.
