The president of the FIQ, Julie Bouchard, indicated that she will not grant an interview before Monday. She says she wants to talk to her members first. In a press release released Friday, the president acknowledges that this agreement in principle will not resolve all of the network's problems and we are fully aware of this. It is the result of sometimes heartbreaking choices and the delegates were able to express themselves freely on its content over the last two days.
