Survey on Vulnerability in the Context of Fatherhood : Preliminary Report - Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN) (2022)
The Regroupement pour la Valorisation de la Paternité (RVP) brings together more than 250 organizations and individuals from the 17 administrative regions of Quebec. Its mission is to value the role of fathers and to promote their importance in the family and in society for the development and well-being of children, in a perspective of equality between parents. The RVP has enlisted the services of SOM to consult Quebec fathers of children under 18 years of age in order to better understand the concept of vulnerability in the context of fatherhood, particularly from the perspective of the diversity of parental experiences and pathways. In partnership with the Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN), this report was based on a subsample of 400 respondents who completed the questionnaire in English.

The Network Model : Influencing Public Policy for Social Change - Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN) (2017)
The case studies being presented in today demonstrate that the development principles are at work every day and are now being pressed into new areas of action. The values underpinning the network model include promoting the identity of our communities, promoting social inclusion and advocating for equity in the broader society in its treatment of communities. These values can support network strategies to enter the “next level” of participation in societal initiatives setting broad policy goals. The reward for such effort can be societal recognition that the programs that define Quebec’s commitment to social progress also include our communities.

Black in Quebec Presents : In Focus - Davids, John; Fang, Xiaoyan (Black Community Resource Centre (BCRC), 2021)
Due to the Information Gaps pertaining to the well-being of the ESBC, the project collected detailed, qualitative information from members of Quebec's ESBC through conducting Focus Groups. These were meant to better inform the project about different aspects of the community such as the challenges facing the ESBC and solutions which should be considered. This process occurred in two parts, one-on-one interviews with members of the ESBC as well as group discussions with members of the seniors in the ESBC. Ultimately, upon conducting the Focus Groups, the Black in Quebec team was provided with a large amount of detailed, qualitative data derived directly from community members. This document presents the findings from the Focus Groups which are organized in two parts: challenges identified and solution based responses. Given that the Focus Group discussions were semistructured and participants offered varying levels of details, the findings reflect distinct issues or solutions identified by the participants in no particular order but were categorized thematically. Certain findings may have overlapped more than one theme.

Memo : Bill 96 and Cégeps - Dawson Teachers' Union
In the Fall, the CAQ government proposed Bill 96 (projet de loi 96) to update elements of the charter with regards to the French language, certain aspects of which target cégeps. More recently, there have been several amendments to the proposed law that have direct and severe implications for anglophone cégeps. This issue has been discussed at recent FNEEQ meetings and the FNEEQ Executive has been meeting with the Ministry of Higher Education, the Fédération des cégeps, and student associations on this topic. As the largest anglophone cégep in the network, Dawson will be directly impacted by many of the elements of the proposed law. Below, we outline some of the key aspects as well as how they might impact Dawson.

La santé mentale à l’ère des réformes en santé : l’importance de l’accès aux services et la langue - Dialogue McGill (2023)

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.

Language Training Program : Overall Profile 2009-2013 - Dialogue McGill (2013)
The Language Training Program, Measure 1, has three components. The first two pertain to English and French for professional purposes courses offered through the regional language training projects designed and implemented by Quebec’s 18 health and social services agencies (the "agencies"). The third covers support activities for the trainers giving language courses in the regions and the learners who take those courses. These activities are developed and offered by the McGill Project team. The Program structure and content were developed by the McGill Project team and are described in Language Training Program – Frame of Reference 2009-2013, which also describes the target users; the Program objectives, partners and conditions; the parameters of the call for proposals for regional training projects; and regional allocation of the funding envelope. A coordinating mechanism, the MSSS-McGill Joint Committee, implements and monitors the Program, as prescribed in the Implementation Framework that the two organizations signed onto in November 2009.

Le projet constitue un outil additionnel favorisant l’application et la bonification des programmes régionaux d’accès aux services de santé et aux services sociaux en langue anglaise, conformément à la Loi sur les services de santé et les services sociaux. Ce Projet a pour objectifs précis de susciter des initiatives de formation et de maintien en poste qui fourniront aux professionnels de la santé et des services sociaux l’occasion d’améliorer leur capacité d’offrir des services en anglais, ainsi que l’occasion de travailler là où ils seront en mesure de répondre aux besoins des populations d’expression anglaise du Québec. Le Projet vise également à promouvoir la recherche et le partage de l’information quant aux approches visant à réduire les barrières en matière d’accès aux services de santé et aux services sociaux pour les Québécois d’expression anglaise.

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.

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.

Training and Human Resources Development Project : Measure 1 : Language training program - Dialogue McGill (2005)
The language training program presented is part of the Training and Human Resources Development Project that McGill University is to implement. This project is designed to ensure that English-speaking Quebecers obtain equitable access, in their language, to the range of health and social services offered to the entire population. The project has been elaborated against a backdrop of sociodemographic changes affecting Québec’s English-speaking communities, the adoption of new legislation modifying the organization of work, and the modernization of the health and social services system. It will be geared to clinical projects now being prepared pertaining to the organization of services. The project is an additional means of reviewing and implementing regional programs of access to health and social services in the English language, as stipulated by the Act respecting health services and social services.

The Best-Treated Minority in the World : Historical and Discursive Analysis of a Cliché - Donovan, Patrick (Quebec English-speaking Communities Research Network (QUESCREN), 2022)
Politicians, polemicists, and others have long referred to Quebec’s Englishspeaking community as the “best-treated minority in the world.”1 This loaded phrase has also been used to describe other minorities: French speakers within Canada as a whole, Indigenous peoples in Canada, and religious groups and minorities in many European and colonial contexts. Through a historical overview and discourse analysis, this paper traces how the phrase has been used and abused, justified, and criticized over time. The particular focus is the Quebec context. There, we see a shift from a largely consensual use of the phrase across all language groups to one that becomes increasingly divisive and problematic from the 1980s on. This shift parallels the English-speaking community’s evolving sense of itself as a minority in decline.

ELAN was conceived in November 2004 at the Quebec Arts Summit held in Montreal. More than 120 artists and other representatives of the English-speaking arts milieu, as well as government officials, came together to discuss ways to support artists and cultural workers in Quebec’s official language minority community (OLMC). With the support of sister organizations the Quebec Drama Federation (QDF), the Quebec Writers’ Federation (QWF), and the Association of English-Language Publishers of Quebec (AELAQ), ELAN was created to give a united voice to minority English-language artists of all backgrounds, working in all disciplines, and living in all regions of Quebec. Through networking events, a monthly email newsletter (ELANews), needs assessment surveys, and major projects such as the Arts Alive! Québec community festivals, ELAN has worked to bring Quebec artists closer together and spread their work far and wide.

Brief Submitted to the National Assembly of Quebec’s Committee on Culture and Education by the English Language Arts Network for the General Consultation and Public Hearings on Bill 14 : An Act to Amend the Charter of the French Language, the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms and Other Legislative Provisions - English Language Arts Network (ELAN) (2013)
This brief was prepared by the English-Language Arts Network (ELAN), an incorporated not-for-profit organisation that represents 8,000 English-speaking artists in Quebec. ELAN is a meeting place for English-language artists and cultural workers of all disciplines from every region of Quebec, where they can share expertise and resources, build audiences and alliances, seek support, advocate for their interests, and make common cause with the Francophone arts community.

Comments on the Canada Media Fund's English Regional Production Policies by the English-language Arts Network of Quebec - English Language Arts Network (ELAN) (2009)
The Canadian Television Fund (CTF) has made the English-language regions synonymous with the official-language minority in Quebec. While regional policies overlap with official-language policies in many ways, they are each distinct and need to be addressed differently. The Official Languages Act gives the English-language minority in Quebec the same status as the French-language minority outside Quebec. However, the CTF has not recognized that the official-language minority community (OLMC) in Quebec has the same rights and legal status as the French-language minority outside Quebec. Thus, Montreal production is not given regional status for the BPE, nor is there a Quebec OLMC production fund similar to the production fund (FLPOQ) available to the French-language minority outside Quebec.

Cultural Brief Presented to the City of Montreal February 11, 2005 as Part of the Development Process for the New Culture Policy - English Language Arts Network (ELAN) (2005)
Montreal is one of the world's major French-speaking cities. It is also home to a large and active population of English-speaking artists that is stimulated by the city's dynamic cultural environment. The vast majority of English-speaking artists live in and around the Metropolis. Therefore they have a vested interest in actively participating in Montreal's development.

What is Bill C-32? - English Language Arts Network (ELAN) (2010)
Bill C-32 is officially known as the Copyright Modernization Act. It was an attempt at a “Balanced Copyright” act introduced in Parliament on June 2, 2010, by the Conservative Party — Honourable Tony Clement, Minister of Industry, and the Honourable James Moore, Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages. It contains changes to Canadian Copyright Law that are hotly contested by artists and authors of cultural media. The Bloc, NDP and Liberal parties are opposed to the act being passed in its current state, and are calling for amendments to be made.

The Effects of the Pandemic on the Arts & Creative Sector in Québec : How Anglophone Artists, Creators, and Performers are Faring in a Time of Adversity - Eraso, Cecilia (Youth for Youth Québec (Y4Y Québec), 2022)
The arts, entertainment, and recreation sector is infamous for being in a state of constant flux. The experience of consecutive short-term contracts and annual seasonal employment terminations is a familiar reality for many creators, producers, and performers in Québec (Jeannotte, 2021). What is unique for some Québec artists is the experience of a linguistic divide in the provincial arts sector. In 2016, English-speaking artists in the province earned less than their Francophone counterparts, on average, making a median income of “85 cents for every $1 made by Francophone artists’’ (Hill, 2020). On the national level, statistics from the 2016 Canadian Census show that Anglophone artists from Québec have a lower median income than the rest of Canadian artists. These findings are especially surprising when considering that, nationally, English-speakers in Québec represent a significant portion of Canadian artists. Anglophones in Québec account for 4.6% of all Canadian artists, despite only representing 2.8% of the Canadian labour force (Hill, 2020). The data indicate that two factors, occupation and language, are related to discrepancies in income levels in Québec.

Études postsecondaires dans la langue de la minorité - Forest, Mariève; Deschênes-Thériault, Guillaume (2021)
Ce rapport présenta les résultats d'une étude qui visait à brosser un portrait de l'education postsecondaire dans la langue de la minorité, ainsi que des enjeux liés à l'éducation postsecondaire en français en contexte minoritaire. D'abord, il propose une description quanititative des étude postsecondaires en anglais du Québec et de celles en français à l'extérieur du Québec. Cette description puise dans diverses sources de Statistique Canada - notamment le Recensement de la population (2016), l'Enquêtenationale auprés des diplômés (END) (2018) et le Système d'information sur les étudiants postsecondaires (SIÉP) (2018-2019) - et dans des banques de données administratives. Ensuite, partant de la littérature et d'entretiens menés auprès de plus de 25 personnes oeuvrant dans l'administration de l'éducation postsecondaire, il présente une analyse de dynamiques et des particularités de l'éducation postsecondaire en français à l'extérieur du Québec.

Postsecondary Education in the Minority Language : An Overview and Analysis of the Issues - Forest, Mariève; Deschênes-Thériault, Guillaume (2021)
This study provides an overview of postsecondary education in the minority language, as well as the issues related to postsecondary education in French in a minority context. To do so, this report sketches a quantitative portrait of postsecondary education in English in Quebec and in French outside Quebec by drawing on various Statistics Canada sources – Population Census (2016), National Graduates Survey (NGS) (2018), Post-Secondary Student Information System (PSIS) (2018-2019) – and administrative databases. Based on the literature and interviews with more than 25 people involved in the administration of postsecondary education, this report provides an analysis of the dynamics and characteristics of French-language postsecondary education outside Quebec.

Retention Program for the McGill University Training and Retention of Health Professionals Project : Evaluation of the retention program measure and recommendations - Gagnon, Marie-Pierre (Dialogue McGill, 2014)
This report presents an evaluation of the activities implemented under the Retention Program, in relation to the Support for Health and Social Services Institutions and Support for Educational Institutions in order to highlight the main strengths and areas for improvement. The mandate was to identify strategies that could help to increase the impact of the internship program on the retention of health and social services professionals in the health and social services network. The evaluation would then contribute to the ongoing improvement of this program, by providing some direction to guide the actions of those responsible for the McGill University Training and Retention of Health Professionals Project and project partners.

The McGill Retention Bursary Program: Evaluation Report : Training and Retention of Health Professionals Project - Gagnon, Marie-Pierre; Lampron, Amélie (CHU de Québec Research Centre, 2015)
An evaluation of this bursary program was conducted, focusing on the components of the program (e.g. eligibility criteria, selection process, etc.) and its outcomes (e.g. recipient intention to return to or stay working in a selected Quebec region at the end of their training, potential impact of the bursary program on retention of health professionals in English-speaking communities, etc.). The objectives of the evaluation were 1) to describe the current processes related to the functioning of the McGill Retention Bursary Program; 2) to explore recipients’ experience of this bursary program; 3) to explore community networks’ experience regarding their collaboration with this bursary program; 4) to assess the effectiveness of the bursary program; and 5) to propose potential improvement strategies for the bursary program currently in place.

The First English-speaking Community : Global Development Plan 2004-2009 - Grundy, Susan (Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN), 2003)
The English-speaking Community of Quebec (ESC) represents multiple communities that are diverse, multicultural and multiracial in nature. The Community includes English-speakers who choose to speak or use the English language, for example, for delivery of services. The Community also includes those citizens who identify with, or have an interest in, the English language. The first step taken by the Global Development Planning Steering Committee was to review the need for a Plan to revitalize the English-speaking Community of Quebec. Why are we doing this? Is a Global Development Plan necessary? What do we hope to achieve?

Understanding the Long-term Care Experience of Official Language Minorities in Canada: An Environmental Scan - Hsu, Amy T.; Ménard, Alixe; Scott, Mary (2022)
Members of minority and racialized communities across Canada commonly experience disparities in health and healthcare. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, minority and racialized individuals have been found to report poorer health outcomes and added barriers to healthcare access. While there is growing understanding of the impact of COVID-19 on individuals who live and work in residential long-term care (LTC) homes and other congregate care settings, little attention has been directed at examining inequities in the care experience and care-related outcomes that equity-seeking groups, including Official Language Minority Communities (OLMC), face within LTC. It’s clear that there is a need for systemic change within LTC; the pandemic, especially in its first two waves, highlighted several pre-existing issues within this sector. To ensure high-quality and equitable care for all aging Canadians, these system-level changes must be informed by evidence.

Comprendre l’expérience des soins de longue durée des minorités de langue officielle au Canada : état des lieux - Hsu, Dre. Amy T; Ménard, Alixe; Scott, Mary (2022)
Les membres des communautés racisées et en situation minoritaire du Canada vivent souvent des disparités en matière de santé et de soins de santé. Dans le contexte de la pandémie de COVID-19, on a constaté que les personnes membres d’une minorité et les personnes racisées signalaient de moins bons résultats de santé et des barrières supplémentaires à l’accès aux soins de santé. Bien que l’on comprenne de plus en plus l’incidence de la COVID-19 sur les personnes vivant et travaillant dans des établissements de soins de longue durée (SLD) et dans d’autres établissements de soins collectifs, on a porté peu d’attention à l’examen des inégalités dans l’expérience des soins et des résultats liés aux soins auxquels font face les groupes en quête d’équité, y compris les communautés de langue officielle en situation minoritaire (CLOSM). Il est clair qu’il faut apporter des changements systémiques au sein du secteur des SLD; la pandémie, surtout au cours de ses deux premières vagues, a mis en lumière plusieurs problèmes préexistants dans ce secteur. Pour assurer des soins de grande qualité et équitables pour tous les Canadien(ne)s âgés, ces changements au niveau du système doivent être fondés sur des données probantes.

The Importance of Resurrecting English-speaking Healthcare Services in Québec - Jackson-Cappuccino, Ella (Youth for Youth Québec (Y4Y Québec), 2021)
French is the first language of 71.2% of Quebecers. For the remaining 27.9%, communication outside of this language can be difficult, especially in regard to health care (Ouimet et. al 3).This is of concern as those who seek medical attention or health resources may not be provided adequate care given the linguistic barrier. Particularly, it is Québec’s Englishspeaking minority that is most affected by this issue (Ouimet et. al 3). Within this minority, there are still hundreds of thousands of English-speaking individuals who desire to seek health services in their first official language. The wish does not simply arise due to a lack of bilingualism. Evidence shows that in times of crisis - when individuals look to communicate a matter of importance - they most often revert to their mother tongue (Silver 686). Without resources designed to cater to the English-speaking population, the government subjects this linguistic minority group to unequal health care services.

Self-Employment and Employment in Quebec's English-speaking Cultural Communities and Visible Minorities : Prospects and Problems - Jedwab, Jack (Youth Employment Services (YES), 2006)

The question is considered in this report in view of the ongoing challenges that some members of English-speaking visible minorities and cultural communities face in the current economy. The specific aim is to improve our understanding of factors which prevent members of Quebec’s English-speaking visible minorities and cultural communities from achieving self-employment and employment goals.

French-language Support for Québec's English-speaking Professionals - Juste, Catherine-Laure (Provincial Employment Roundtable (PERT), 2022)
French-language barriers can be a challenge for professionals who are English speakers and must practice their profession in accordance with French-language policies. Despite high levels of English-French bilingualism among Québec’s English speakers, French remains a challenge for some who require additional profession-specific French-language training. Not only is French-language proficiency a requirement for membership in Québec’s professional orders, but professionals who do not meet language criteria must also pass a French-language competency exam administered by the Office québécois de la langue française (OQLF). Additionally, professional orders can mandate all their members to take French-language professional competency exams throughout their careers.

Soutien en langue française pour les professionnelles et professionnels d'expression anglaise au Québec - Juste, Catherine-Laure (Provincial Employment Roundtable (PERT), 2022)
La langue française peut représenter un obstacle pour les professionnelles et professionnels d’expression anglaise qui doivent exercer leur profession en respectant les politiques linguistiques en place. Malgré un haut niveau de bilinguisme parmi les Québécois·e·s d’expression anglaise, le français demeure une embuche pour certain∙e∙s. Ces personnes professionnelles bénéficieraient de formation linguistique additionnelle en lien avec leur métier. Non seulement la maîtrise du français est un prérequis pour se joindre aux ordres professionnels québécois, mais, dans certains cas, les personnes qui ne satisfont pas aux critères linguistiques doivent aussi passer un examen de français de l’Office québécois de la langue française (OQLF). En outre, les ordres professionnels peuvent demander à leurs membres de se soumettre, durant leur carrière, à des examens de compétences linguistiques en français.

Did the Black Lives Matter Movement Help English-speaking Black Young Adults in Quebec Recover from the Damaging Psychological Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic? - Koestner, Richard; Holding, Anne C. (Quebec English-speaking Communities Research Network (QUESCREN), 2021)
The historic events of the spring of 2020—the collision of the worst public health crisis in a century and the largest Black civil rights movement in half a century—offer a unique opportunity to examine how the frustrations and hopes of English-speaking Black young adults were affected. We sought to understand the potentially competing impacts that the public health and social justice crises have had on the young adults in their communities. Quebec has the second largest Black population in Canada (after Ontario), with 27% of Canada’s total Black population. Quebec’s Black population has doubled in size in the past 20 years, with 325,000 people currently living here. This population is predominantly French speaking (80%), and it is concentrated in the Montreal metropolitan area (over 90%). The Black population tends to be younger than the Canadian average, and its members are more likely to be first-generation Canadians.

The adoption of three linguistic laws in less than ten years, under three different governments, testifies to numerous social and political changes experienced in Quebec since the onset of the quiet revolution. Bill 63, (1969), Bill 22, (1974) and, more recently Bill 101, (August 1977) attest to the rapid advancement of the Francophone community's demands re: language which are applicable to all of the residents of Quebec. For many this evolution exemplifies the need for self-assertion and identity long held in check by a system of social values which favored the introversion of the French Canadian collectivity thus keeping it aloof from the socio-economic mainstream of Canadian life in North America.

Programme d’accès aux services de santé et aux services sociaux en langue anglaise pour les personnes d’expression anglaise : 2012-2015 - Labrecque, Edith; Paquette, Brigitte (Jeffery Hale - Saint Brigid's (JHSB), 2012)
En novembre 2010, le ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux (MSSS) demandait aux agences de procéder à la révision du programme d’accès aux services de santé et aux services sociaux en langue anglaise pour les personnes d’expression anglaise de leur région respective. Le dernier programme d’accès, élaboré par l’Agence de la santé et des services sociaux de la Capitale-Nationale, avait été approuvé par ce même ministère en décembre 2007. Conformément à la loi, ces programmes doivent être révisés tous les trois ans, ce qui implique la mise en place d’une démarche permettant d’assurer leur actualisation. Ce travail permet donc de revoir la situation prévalant actuellement dans la région à l’intention de la population d’expression anglaise, d’apporter les bonifications nécessaires afin de mieux répondre à leurs besoins, et ce, en matière d’accessibilité, de continuité, de complémentarité et de qualité dans les services offerts. Il implique nécessairement un grand nombre de partenaires provenant de divers établissements de la région.

Secondary School Exchanges : A Promising Way of Fostering Bilingualism in the Next Generation - Lai, Edward; Orme, Charlie; Fleming, Scott (Y4Y Québec, 2018)
In Quebec, it is a basic fact that a solid grasp of the French language is essential to finding work, participating fully in the political process, and integrating into society. While statistics show that bilingualism is very common among the Englishspeaking minority, and especially so among youth, problems nonetheless arise. Young English-speakers frequently report that they do not feel confident enough in their ability to speak French, while others remark that their written French is not strong enough to land a job. Inadequate knowledge of French is a contributing factor to the higher unemployment rates experienced by young English- speakers. A lack of work, and a hampered ability to take part in public life in general, lead to the disenfranchisement of members of this community. Given the high demand among young English- speakers for more French-language training, policy makers must come up with new and creative ways of meeting the demand.

Programme d’accès : aux services de santé et aux services sociaux en langue anglaise pour les personnes d’expression anglaise de la Capitale-Nationale : 2012-2015 - Laroche, Daniel; Blais, Sébasitien; Paquette, Brigitte (Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de services sociaux de la Capitale Nationale, 2016)
En décembre 2015, le ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux (MSSS) demandait au Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de service sociaux de la Capitale-Nationale de procéder à une mise à jour du Programme d’accès aux services de santé et aux services sociaux en langue anglaise pour les personnes d’expression anglaise 2012-2015 (programme d’accès) de leur région respective. Le dernier programme d’accès élaboré par l’Agence de la santé et des services sociaux de la Capitale- Nationale avait fait l’objet d’une approbation par le Ministère en 2012. La démarche de mise à jour vise un portrait actuel des services de santé et des services sociaux en langue anglaise considérant le contexte actuel de la réorganisation du réseau de la santé et des services sociaux entamé depuis l’adoption de la LMRSSS, Loi modifiant l’organisation et la gouvernance du réseau de la santé et des services sociaux notamment par l’abolition des agences régionales.

Le présent rapport donne une vue d’ensemble du Forum et des principaux messages à retenir.

Postsecondary Education in the Minority Language : An Overview and Analysis of the Issues - Mariève, Forest; Deschênes-Thériault, Guillaume (Sociopol, 2021)
The advocacy efforts of Francophone minority communities (FMCs) that followed the adoption of the Official Languages Act (1969) and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (1982) led to the development and implementation of the provincial and territorial minority-language elementary and secondary school systems. In Quebec, the implementation of the Englishlanguage elementary and secondary school system did not meet with the same level of resistance as that faced by the French-language school systems in FMCs.

Explorer les effets de la langue comme obstacle à l’accès aux soins, à l’utilisation des services et au bien-être pour les familles anglophones du Québec - McGill Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology; CareLab
La langue a été nommée comme obstacle à l’accès et à l’utilisation des soins de santé pour les anglophones du Québec et pour une multitude d’autres minorités linguistiques partout dans le monde. Plus précisément, ces obstacles se manifestent par la difficulté d’accéder à un professionnel de la santé, par exemple pour prendre un rendez-vous dans la langue de son choix, le manque de choix quant aux traitements et services nécessaires, la difficulté à comprendre le plan de traitement et les résultats d’examens et le manque de services dans la langue de son choix lorsqu’on est orienté vers un spécialiste de la santé.
