A Brief Presented to the Parliamentary Committee on Cutlure and Education on Bill 14 (an Act to Amend the Charter of the French Language, the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms and Other Legislative Provisions) - Quebec Federation of Home and School Associations (QFHSA) (2013)
On December 5, 2012, the Honorable Diane De Courcy, Minister responsible for the Charter of the French Language, introduced Bill 14, An Act to amend the Charter of the French Language, the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms and other legislative provisions to the National Assembly. The decision to amend the Charter of the French Language and the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms follows the recent minority win of the Parti Québécois in the National Assembly on September 4, 2012. QFHSA questions the need for this legislation when we are at a time of general peace in terms of language relations.

La décision d’amender la Charte de la langue française et la Charte des droits et libertés suit la récente élection minoritaire du Parti québécois à l’Assemblée nationale, le 4 septembre 2012. La FQAFE s’interroge sur la nécessité d’une telle législation au moment où nous vivons une période plutôt paisible en matière de relations linguistiques.

The Decline of the English School System in Quebec - Bourhis, Richard Y.; Foucher, Pierre (Canadian Institute for Research on Linguistic Minorities (CIRLM), 2012)
With the adoption of the Charter of the French Language by the Parti Québécois in 1977, Quebec Anglophones were most concerned about the erosion of their educational institutions resulting not only from the out-migration of Anglophones and Allophones to the rest of Canada (ROC), but also from the Bill 101 law stipulating that international immigrants to Quebec could no longer choose to send their children to English schools (Mallea, 1984). Thus, following Bill 101, Quebec Anglophones could no longer count on immigrants to maintain the demographic base necessary to keep open key English medium schools across the province (McAndrew, 2002). However by 1982, Anglophones, as English mother tongue “rights holders”, could now count on their right to English schooling in Quebec as enshrined in Article 23 of the Canadian Constitution.

L'économie créative et les communautés anglophones au Québec: Rapport préparé pour Industrie Canada par Tracy Zhang - Zhang, Tracy (Quebec English-speaking Communities Research Network (QUESCREN), 2012)
L’économie créative et les communautés anglophones au Québec présente les résultats préliminaires d’une étude comprenant un groupe de discussion, des entrevues privées avec des intervenants clés et des recherches documentaires. Le rapport démontre que l’idée d’économie créative est utile au suivi du développement culturel et économique des communautés anglophones du Québec (CAQ). Les anglophones québécois constituent la plus importante communauté minoritaire de langue officielle provinciale au Canada. Au cours des dernières décennies, la composition de cette population est devenue de plus en plus complexe et multiculturelle. Parallèlement à ces changements démographiques, l’influence de la culture anglophone québécoise a aussi évolué. On dit qu’une proportion particulièrement élevée d’anglophones est engagée dans le secteur des arts, de la culture et du patrimoine. Dans ce contexte, les organismes du secteur jouent un rôle croissant dans le développement socioéconomique des CAQ. Le présent rapport révèle les préoccupations grandissantes des représentants de certains organismes de ce type qui ont participé à l’étude en ce qui a trait à la manière d’appliquer la théorie de l’économie créative de façon à créer des modèles de développement culturel et économique efficaces pour les CAQ.

The Creative Economy and the English Speaking Communities in Quebec : Report Submitted to Industry Canada by Tracy Zhang on Behalf of the Quebec English-speaking Communities Research Network (QUESCREN) - Zhang, Tracy (Quebec English-speaking Communities Research Network (QUESCREN), 2012)
The Creative Economy and English-Speaking Communities in Quebec presents preliminary research results based on a focus group, private key informant interviews, and bibliographical research. It demonstrates that the concepts of the creative economy are useful in charting cultural and economic development for the English-speaking communities in Quebec (ESCQ). The English-speaking population in Quebec forms the largest provincial Official Language Minority Community in Canada. In recent decades, the composition of this population has become increasingly complex and multicultural. Parallel to this demographic shift, the influence of English-language Quebec culture has also evolved. English-speakers are said to have a high participation rate in the arts, culture and heritage sectors. In this context, organizations from these sectors are increasingly involved in supporting the socioeconomic development of the ESCQ. This report reflects growing concerns on the part of representatives of some of these organizations who participated in the study over how to apply the creative economy theory to generate effective models of cultural-economic development for the ESCQ.

In October of 2008, The Centre for Community Organizations (COCo) began a community research project to help develop a better understanding of the diversity of groups working for social change in Québec. The study, “In the Know: Identifying multiple aspects of Québec’s community sector”, was supported by the Secretariat à l’Action Communautaire Autonome et aux Initiatives Sociales (SACAIS) and aimed to survey English-speaking, bilingual and ethno-cultural community groups across Québec over a three year period. The research was carried out between 2009 and 2012.

Understanding the Literacy and Essential Skills Needs of Quebec’s Anglophone Adults,1 Phase 1, was a project designed to deepen knowledge and understanding of the literacy and essential skills (LES) needs of Anglophone adults living in Quebec as a basis to more effectively serve Englishspeaking communities across the province. The issue was first identified in a publication by Statistics Canada of the 2003 IALSS results for Canada’s official language minorities (discussed in detail in Sections Three and Four) which showed large disparities in literacy performance among Quebec Anglophones (Corbeil 2006: 20). The findings suggested differences in needs from one community to another that may require targeted services.

What is the impact of this emerging clientele on community programs? Where do community resources refer persons in difficulty? How should programs be adapted to address the new challenge? What are the policy and program responses of government and the public health and social services?

Language Training Program : Frame of Reference 2010-2013 - Dialogue McGill (2011)
The McGill Training and Retention of Health Professionals Project seeks to contribute to Government of Quebec initiatives aimed at ensuring that English-speaking Quebecers have access to the full range of health and social services in their language. To this end it proposes a series of measures to train, hire and retain an adequate workforce for delivering health services and social services in English. The Project objectives are to a) improve the capacity of the health and social services network to serve English speakers in their language and b) increase the participation of English-speaking professionals in Quebec’s health and social services system. The achievement of these goals depends on a solid partnership between McGill University and the ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux (MSSS). A MSSS-McGill joint committee has been formed to oversee the implementation and monitoring of the various Project measures.

Le Projet de formation et de maintien en poste des professionnels de la santé de l’Université McGill se veut une contribution aux initiatives du gouvernement du Québec pour assurer aux Québécois d’expression anglaise l’accès dans leur langue à la gamme de services de santé et de services sociaux. À ce titre, le Projet propose diverses mesures visant à former, à embaucher et à maintenir en poste une main-d’œuvre suffisante capable d’offrir des services de santé et des services sociaux en anglais. Les objectifs du Projet sont d’améliorer la capacité du réseau de la santé et des services sociaux de répondre aux besoins des personnes d’expression anglaise dans leur langue et d’accroître la participation des professionnels d’expression anglaise dans le système québécois de santé et de services sociaux. L’atteinte de ces objectifs repose sur un partenariat entre l’Université McGill et le ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux. Un comité conjoint MSSS-McGill est formé afin d’assurer la mise en œuvre et le suivi de l’ensemble des mesures du Projet.

Understanding Literacy and Family Literacy Needs of Anglophone Adults in Quebec : Research Summaries - The Centre for Literacy of Quebec (CFL) (2011)
The Understanding literacy and family literacy needs of Anglophone adults in Quebec project aimed to deepen knowledge and understanding of the literacy and essential skills (LES) needs of Anglophone adults living in Quebec as a basis to more effectively serve English-speaking communities across the province. The issue was first identified in a publication by Statistics Canada of the 2003 IALSS results for Canada’s official language minorities which showed large disparities in literacy performance among Quebec Anglophones. The findings suggested differences in need from one community to another that may require targeted services. This project set out to fill this knowledge gap and to insert LES into the ongoing discussion about Anglophones in Quebec. All Quebec English-language umbrella groups stand to benefit from the findings in terms of proposing better policy, planning new services and using resources more efficiently. There may be opportunities for new partnerships to develop solutions to some challenges not previously seen as linked to literacy. The project will also provide a useful road map for identifying promising new research avenues that would assist LES organizations in getting a more detailed picture of the communities they are aiming to serve.

Baseline Data Report 2010-2011 : English-language Health and Social Services Access in Quebec - Pocock, Joanne (Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN), 2011)
The 2010-2011 Baseline Data Report relays the health and social service findings of the 2010 CHSSN-CROP Survey on Community Vitality Survey and compares them with the findings of the 2005 survey. In order to facilitate the five year comparison the design of the present report reproduces, as much as possible, that of the 2005-2006 BDR. The commonalities and distinct features of regional communities within the English-speaking provincial population are delineated as well as sub-groups defined by gender, age, household income, health status and level of bilingualism. While this report is limited to the health and social service sector, the Survey on Community Vitality also collects the opinions, perceptions and expectations of a representative sample of English-speaking Quebecers in each region of Quebec with respect to issues in education, manpower development, culture and communications. The 2010 study replicates a previous survey conducted by CROP in 2000 for the Missisquoi Institute and again in 2005 for the CHSSN. A survey was also done among a representative sample of French-speaking Quebecers on the same issues. These results are not presented in this report.

This study revealed several opportunities to increase the quantity and quality of production, which have previously been overlooked, because of a lack of consistent/persistent consultations with a variety of interlocutors. These include: CRTC, Canada Media Fund, Telefilm and Société de développement des enterprises culturelles (SODEC), as well as television broadcasters, including Vidéotron/VOX, which have a responsibility to support or produce community-based television for its English-language subscribers. This study also revealed that a good deal of radio production with strong local content is being created, which could be more widely distributed via the web. A web-based cyber portal could be created to aggregate existing content and make it available to all English-speaking communities throughout Quebec.

Bill 103 : Collective Rights and the Declining Vitality of the English-speaking Communities of Quebec - Bourhis, Richard Y.; Foucher, Pierre (Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN), 2010)
The first part of this brief deals with the declining vitality of the English speaking communities of Quebec (ESCQ) and the strength of the dominant Québécois francophone majority in the Province. We argue that a key premise of Bill 103 is based on the erroneous notion that the French language and its speakers are threatened in the Province of Quebec. This false premise brings the current government to draft Bill 103 with regulations making it virtually impossible for Allophone and immigrant children to be approved as pupils in the publicly funded English schools of the Province. As the past Education Minister Michele Courchesne stated on June 3rd 2010 “I won’t deny that the objective (of Bill 103) is to have as few as possible (approved)”.

Training and Human Resources Development Project : Final Report - Dialogue McGill (2010)
McGill University’s 2004-2008 Training and Human Resources Development Project sought to contribute to improving English-speaking Quebecers’ access in their own language to the range of health and social services offered to the general population. The 2004-2008 Project was funded through Health Canada’s program to support Quebec initiatives for improving access to health care and social services for English speakers. It was sponsored by McGill University’s Faculty of Arts and administered by its English and French Language Center in conjunction with its School of Social Work. The budget allocated for the 2004- 2008 period was $ 11,757,828. The project had two objectives: to ensure effective communication between English-speakers and the health and social services workers serving them and to increase the participation of English-speaking professionals in the Quebec health and social services network.

It has been designed to help communities assess their capacity to work with and support entrepreneurs, and to foster business growth. The BVI has been employed in communities across Canada (and recently in Australia) by a team based in Nelson, BC. The CIEL/BVI Team has been nominated for BC’s top award in community economic development and most recently won an award as the region’s most innovative organization. The BVI measures the perceptions of community leaders, business people and citizens about the current business environment in the community and compares the scores to those from other communities using a unique graphical index (the Business Vitality Index).

Our brief deals with the declining vitality of the English-speaking communities of Quebec (ESCQ) and the relative strength of the Francophone majority. The QCGN‟s goal is to demonstrate that our minority communities are not a threat to the majority, but a constituency that strengthens Quebec society. We expose the detrimental effect that Quebec's habit of emphasising an exclusionary notion of its society has on its minority population. Finally, we seek to attain official recognition of the historic and ongoing contributions our minority makes to Quebec society and achieve legal protection of minority rights and freedoms.

Soumis au Comité spécial Mourir avec Dignité par Le conseil catholique d’expression anglaise - The English Speaking Catholic Council (ESCC) (2010)
En 1980, nous, un group d’individus représentant divers secteurs de la communauté Catholique anglophone et ses organisations, nous sommes réunis dans le but de consolider nos ressources humaines et matérielles, en vue du développement de notre communauté. Cela a mené, en 1981, à la création du Conseil catholique d’expression anglaise (CCEA), ayant le mandat d’agir comme point central dans la coordination de la communauté Catholique anglophone de la région urbaine de Montréal. Au cours des ans, l’CCEA a assumé un rôle plus proéminant, élargissant son activité à toute la province et au-delà. S’inspirant de la compréhension Catholique contemporaine du rôle de la communauté laïque dans le monde moderne, Le conseil catholique d’expression anglaise aide à promouvoir les valeurs de sa communauté, et défend ces valeurs dans le processus de résolution des problèmes ayant un impact sur cette communauté. Le conseil d’administration se compose d’hommes et de femmes du secteur public et privé, tous bénévoles, qui s’engagent à appuyer leur communauté dans les domaines de l’éducation, de la santé et des services sociaux, de l’animation sociale, de la culture et de la justice sociale.

Submitted to the Select Committee on Dying with Dignity - The English Speaking Catholic Council (ESCC) (2010)
In 1980, a group of individuals who represented various sectors of the English-speaking Catholic community and its organizations met with the idea of consolidating our human and material resources for the development of our community. This led to the formation in 1981 of the English Speaking Catholic Council (ESCC) with a mandate to act as a focal point in coordinating the English-speaking Catholic community of Greater Montreal. Over the years, the ESCC has assumed a higher profile which now extends throughout the Province and beyond. Inspired by the contemporary Catholic understanding of the role of the laity in the modern world, the English Speaking Catholic Council assists in the promotion of its community’s values and advocates those values in the resolution of issues affecting this community. The Board of Directors is made up of women and men from both the private and public sectors, all volunteers, who come together with a commitment to support their community in education, health and social services, community animation, culture and social justice.

Review of Key Documents on the English-language Film/TV/Media Production Industry in Quebec for the English-language Arts Network of Quebec - Magnetic North Associates (English-Language Arts Network (ELAN), 2010)
Responding to anecdotal evidence from their members, the Quebec chapters of ACTRA and DGC commissioned a major study of English-language production in Quebec based on CAVCO data (Appendix I). This 2008 report was titled “Going…Going…Gone: The Decline of English-language Production in Quebec 1996-7 to 2006-7”, and it demonstrated several long term trends in domestic production.

Survey of the English-language Film/TV/Media Industry in Quebec for the English-language Arts Network of Quebec with funding from Telefilm Canada - Magnetic North Associates (English-Language Arts Network (ELAN), 2010)
There has been a significant shift in the demographic profile of the English-Quebec production industry since the last similar survey of English-Quebec producers in 2003. Today’s industry is more female, has fewer immigrants, and is much more bilingual. Sixty two per cent say they speak fluent French. This demographic shift may be caused by the departure of members of the industry with poorer French language skills or an increase in language skills.

Assessing the English-speaking Community's Capacity to Access Arts, Culture, and Heritage in Nine Regions of Quebec : A Report on Phase One of the "Enhancing Access to Cultural Expression" Project (EACE) - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN); Palmer, Lise (2010)
In 2008, the Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) Board of Directors passed a formal resolution to prioritize the development of the Arts, Culture and Heritage sector. This area was prioritized by a majority of members in the Network and was supported by the Board. An Arts, Culture and Heritage working group was created to develop a policy framework in this area to streamline and guide the activities of the Network. The main partners in this endeavour were the English Language Arts Network (ELAN) represented by Guy Rodgers, the Quebec Anglophone Heritage Network (QAHN) represented by Kevin O'Donnell and Dwane Wilkin and the QCGN represented by Sylvia Martin-Laforge. Jane Needles also participated in the working group representing both the QCGN and ELAN. The policy framework, which was completed in November 2008, identified key areas of intervention over the next five years to support the dynamic growth and development of the cultural expression of English-speaking Quebec. The first was a project to access cultural expression through expanded partnerships. This current project “Enhancing Access to Cultural Expression” is a direct result of the prioritization of access to cultural expression. The other areas of priority included recognition and support through visibility - which is currently being addressed through the RAEV project being implemented by ELAN - and the creative economy - an issue yet to be addressed.

The McGill Training and Human Resource Development Project contributes to other Quebec government initiatives aimed at ensuring that English-speaking people in Quebec enjoy equitable access, in their own language, to the full range of health and social services available to the general population. Its two main objectives are to ensure effective communication in English between English-speaking Quebecers and the health and social services workers who serve their needs and to increase the number of English-speaking professionals working in the Quebec health and social services system. The Project involves the implementation of four measures in partnership with stakeholders concerned by the issue of access to health and social services in the English-speaking communities. The 2008-2009 year was an extension of the Project which finished in March 2008.

Local Television Support for the Official-language Minority in Quebec - Magnetic North Associates (2009)
The Anglophone minority doesn’t lack access to English-language channels via satellite and cable distribution, but it is underserved in “regional reflection” and “local expression”. That is especially the case for the 200,000 Anglophones outside the greater Montreal area who have virtually no “regional reflection”. The reason for this inadequate regional programming can be traced to the lack of regional services available to the official language minority community (OLMC) in Quebec. There is no English-language educational channel, similar to TFO in Ontario, nor is there an English regional channel, or community channel.

Déclaration sur le projet de loi 21 : Loi sur la laïcité de l’État - The English Speaking Catholic Council (ESCC) (2009)
Le Conseil catholique d’expression anglaise a été fondé en 1981 avec la mission d'agir comme catalyseur, rassembleur et facilitateur de l'action collective pour la communauté catholique anglophone au Québec. En tant qu'organisme inspiré par l'enseignement social catholique, le Conseil se préoccupe du bien commun et s’inquiète donc des implications du projet de loi 21 (Loi sur la laïcité de l'État) pour le bien-être social et civique de la société québécoise. Pour l’essentiel, les objections du Conseil à l'égard de la législation actuelle sont semblables à celles que nous avons exprimées dans notre mémoire de 2013 sur le projet de loi 60 (Charte affirmant les valeurs de la laïcité d'État, de la neutralité religieuse et de l'égalité entre les femmes et les hommes, et fournissant un cadre pour les demandes d'accommodement).

Statement on Bill 21 : An Act Respecting the Laicity of the State - The English Speaking Catholic Council (ESCC) (2009)
The English Speaking Catholic Council (ESCC) was founded in 1981 with the mission to act as a catalyst, convener and facilitator of collective action for the English-speaking Catholic community of Quebec. As an organization inspired by Catholic social teaching, the Council is concerned for the common good and is apprehensive as to the implications of Bill 21 (An Act respecting the laicity of the State) for the social and civic welfare of Quebec society. In the main, the objections the Council have regarding the current legislation are similar to those we expressed in our 2013 brief on Bill 60 (Charter affirming the values of State secularism and religious neutrality and of equality between women and men, and providing a framework for accommodation requests)1 However, there are a number of critical differences between the 2013 legislation and that introduced in 2019.

High-quality Teachers and Administrators for English-language Schools in Québec : Preparation, Induction and Support - Advisory Board on English Education (2009)
The Advisory Board on English Education begins by commending the teachers and principals of the English-language schools of the province for the crucial work they do in educating the future citizens of Québec, Canada, and the world. Education has always been an important preoccupation of English-speaking Quebeckers. Graduates of English-language schools have contributed greatly to the institutions of the province, and the schoolhouse has traditionally provided a focal point for rural populations of the community. Worldwide, there is a recognition that education must change to accommodate the needs of twenty-first century graduates, and that therefore the curriculum and teachers must also change. Many countries have developed initiatives that aim to prepare, support, and retain teachers more effectively than in the past, and to encourage young people to become teachers, especially in disciplines such as science and mathematics, seen as necessary for living in contemporary society. Our goal in this brief is to respond to the preoccupation that the English-language schools of Québec need even more good teachers and principals who, in turn, need more appropriate preparation and more support so that they do not leave the profession but continue to develop within it.
