Senator Fraser: The point made in Quebec City when we were talking about data was that since there
is no longer a full-service English-language hospital in Quebec City for many things, particularly aft
er eight o'clock at night when the Jeffery Hale Hospital emergency ward is
closed, anglophones will go to a French-language hospital and be glad to get the service that they get there, but they would obviously be even be more glad if
...[+++]they could get it in English. However, there is no way to file those people as people whose preferred language is English, so no one knows how many people would be grateful to receive their service in English if they could.
Le sénateur Fraser : À Québec, lorsqu'il a été question des données, on nous a indiqué que puisqu'il n'y avait plus de services complets offerts en anglais dans les hôpitaux dans bien des domaines, particulièrement après 20 heures, quand l'urgence de l'hôpital Jeffery Hale est fermée, les anglophones doivent se rendre dans un hôpital francophone et s'estimer chanceux d'y recevoir des services, même s'ils préfèreraient évidemment être servis en anglais.
