Abstract
As part of Quebec’s English-speaking community, as artists, storytellers, dramatists and performers embedded in and contributing to Quebec’s cultural life, we are deeply troubled by the character, spirit and content of Bill 96, and the negative impact it threatens to have on Quebec’s English-language arts community.
