Title
Priority Setting Steering Committee Phase II Recommendations to the Department of Canadian Heritage
Abstract
In March 2018, the Government of Canada renewed its official languages strategy, called the Action Plan for Official Languages 2018-2023: Investing in Our Future. Amongst other investments in the Action Plan, the Department of Canadian Heritage (PCH) announced increased funding for English-language minority community organizations in Quebec. This increase is to be delivered through the Official Languages Funding Programs in two sub-components:
1) Cooperation with the Community Sector
2) a new Development Fund established specifically for English-speaking Quebec.
In May 2018, the Minister of Canadian Heritage requested that representative organizations provide input on behalf of Canada’s official language minority communities, on principles and priorities for action and to guide decisions on the allocation of new financial resources for programs and projects undertaken by and for these communities through her Department. The Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) – English-speaking Quebec’s official interlocutor with PCH – accepted this task, and at a special meeting of its Board of Directors on June 16, tasked the Priority Setting Steering Committee (PSSC) with undertaking the work.
