I can't really talk about 1993 and 1998. However, I can tell you that it's a bit like when you negotiate a collective agreement. The more partners there are, the more intense the negotiations are, as I said earlier. In addition, there are new funds in these cases. It should be borne in mind that the 1993 and 1998 agreements still apply. There's no problem with the funds that were there at the time; however, since the action plan has new funds, we had to sign a new agreement rather than extend the one we previously had. Of course, in this kind of situation, you sit down at the table with the provinces and territories. In addition, the needs are very different now.
The province of New Brunswick argued that it was the only bilingual province in Canada, which is an entirely accurate argument. You definitely have to adjust to the needs in New Brunswick in a bilateral context. You can't deal with that province in the same way as Saskatchewan, for example.
In Quebec, the minority language is English. That's a different case. As a result of all those differences, you have to negotiate. Some want more, others want less, and that's normal. The parties have to agree amongst themselves. That's why we've signed a four-year rather than a three-year agreement, as was planned.
