Conservatives to end bilingualism?

"...Scott Reid, an Ottawa area MP and the Conservative candidate for the riding of Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington, was quoted in the Moncton Times and Herald News as saying he supports removing Ottawa's obligation to offer bilingual services across much of Canada and that the senior civil servants no longer should be required to speak both of the country's official languages...The Liberals jumped all over the article earlier in the day, saying that the Conservative Party "shows us its true colours in regards to bilingualism by bringing to light the old reform policy of offering bilingual services solely in isolated areas in Ontario and New Brunswick..."
