Title
Brief to the Committee on Culture and Education : Special Consultations and Public Hearings on Bill 105, An Act to Amend the Education Act
Abstract
The Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) represents forty-eight (48) English-language community groups across Quebec. QCGN recognizes that Quebec’s English public school system is a key institution of the English-speaking community of Quebec - a linguistic minority community. The management and control of these institutions is a matter of governance subject to minority language educational rights contained in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and Quebec’s democratic tradition, expressed in the political rights guaranteed by the Quebec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms.
