KIDS Summer Camp - Keats, Shannon A. (Coasters Association, 2016)
In the summer of 2006, a six (6) week summer camp pilot project was undertaken in the Municipalities of Bonne Esperance and St. Augustine to provide a Summer Camp for youth. The summer camp entitled Kindness, Inspiration, Determination, Spirit, “KIDS”, has proven to be a great success. The mission of KIDS Summer Camp is to nurture and develop a safe and healthy environment in which youth can improve their health and obtain skills that will assist them in their future lives, through physical activities, mental development, artistic growth, environment awareness and community/family participation. In 2007, the Coasters Association expanded the KIDS Summer Camp to two (2) additional communities (La Tabatiere, and Blanc Sablon), as well worked in partnership with, and supported, the Eau-Naturelle Discovery Camp in Chevery, and the two (2) camps already established were maintained. In 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 the five camps were in operation and ran very well.

Access to Justice for Minority Populations : Focus on the English-speaking Communities of Quebec: 2000-2016 - Shohet, Linda (Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN), 2016)
The objectives of this project are to research access to justice issues experienced by English-speaking Quebecers from their perspective, to establish metrics for measuring access to justice that fit the needs of community members, and to make recommendations to mitigate or overcome gaps and challenges for the English-speaking community of Quebec. The guiding question is: What is the lived experience for an English-speaking Quebecer in accessing legal and judicial information and services or in interacting with any of the social services that are now understood to be implicated in the broader concept of access to justice? This literature review is the first deliverable from Phase 1 of the project with an expectation that the findings will inform the second deliverable — a research plan to fill gaps in knowledge about the reality of access to justice for the anglophone population of Quebec.

Brief to the House of Commons Special Committee on Electoral Reform - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) (2016)
The QCGN is concerned that the Government of Canada has not provided Canadians a specific electoral system on which to be consulted. Arriving at a recommended electoral system has been delegated to this Committee, with the decision on which system to pursue resting with the government. Members of the Committee undoubtedly understand the complexity of various systems under consideration, and the esoteric nature of the material. Indeed, so far the discussion at this Committee has been dominated by specialists, a term used broadly to include technical experts, and people and groups with an ongoing interest and specialization in electoral systems. This should come as no surprise when beginning with a blank sheet of paper, and indeed, the Committee is mandated to seek out expert testimony.

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.

Mémoire à la Commission de la culture et de l’éducation : Consultations particulières et audiences publiques sur le projet de loi no 105 : Loi modifiant la Loi sur l’instruction publique - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) (2016)
Le Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) est un organisme qui représente quarante-huit (48) groupes communautaires d’expression anglaise, répartis dans l’ensemble du Québec. Le QCGN reconnaît que le système scolaire public anglais du Québec est une institution qui joue un rôle de premier plan dans la communauté d’expression anglaise de la province – une communauté linguistique minoritaire. La gestion et le contrôle de ses institutions sont une question de gouvernance sujette aux droits à l’instruction dans la langue de la minorité. Enchâssés dans la Charte canadienne des droits et libertés et dans la tradition démocratique québécoise, ces droits sont également énoncés et garantis par la Charte des droits et libertés de la personne du Québec.

The Community Learning Centre Initiative : Framework for Action - Smith, William J. (Leading English Education and Resource Network (LEARN), 2016)
In the province of Quebec, English language-minority communities do not always have equitable access to education, health and/or social services. This challenge is particularly acute for English educational institutions and communities, especially in those regions where Anglophones make up a small percentage of the total population and the English school is the only English- language public sector institution in the community. The Community Learning Centre (CLC) Initiative helps to address this gap by building partnerships between English schools and organizations/institutions in their communities. These partnerships, facilitated by a Community Development Agent (CDA), leverage resources that benefit students, their families and the broader community. Recognizing the value of the CLC Initiative, the Association of Directors General of English School Boards of Québec (ADGESBQ) has supported its development since its inception.

L'accueil bilingue dans les institutions fédérales : parlons-en! - Canada. Employment and Social Development Canada (2016)
L’objectif de l’étude était de déterminer, du point de vue des employés, les facteurs personnels, organisationnels et sociaux ayant une incidence sur la décision de faire ou non une offre active. Ces facteurs peuvent, par exemple, avoir trait aux interactions individuelles entre les employés de première ligne et les clients, à la culture, aux structures ou aux processus organisationnels, ou encore à la composition et aux dynamiques linguistiques des communautés où se trouvent les bureaux du gouvernement fédéral. L’étude portait précisément sur le moment où une offre active doit être formulée, c’est-à-dire au premier contact avec un client. La disponibilité et la qualité des services bilingues n’ont pas été examinées.

Bilingual Greetings in Federal Institutions : Let's Talk About It! - Canada. Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages (2016)
The purpose of the study was to better understand employees’ perspectives on the individual, organizational or social factors that influence whether an active offer is made. For example, these factors may relate to the individual interactions between front-line employees and clients, to organizational processes, structures or cultures, or to the linguistic makeup and dynamics of the communities in which federal offices are located. The study focused specifically on the moment when an active offer must be made, i.e., the moment of first contact with the client.

The State of the Profession of the Spiritual Care, Guidance and Community Animation Service in the Province of Quebec - Gagnon, David-Roger; Lofeodo, Frank (2016)
The 25% cuts to the Spiritual Care, Guidance and Community Animation Service, and the un-dedicating of Mesure 30070, known as Mesure 15120, had a significantly negative impact on the service to students. We would like to respectfully request that the government reconsider the 25% budget reductions imposed on the Spiritual Care, Guidance and Community Involvement Animation Service. (We refer to this work as Spiritual & Community Animation). Boards within the English Sector have always remained faithful to the Spiritual & Community Animation service as outlined in Bill 118 and see the 25% cut as inequitable. As an example of this commitment, English School Boards have invested significant amounts of money for the past 19 years in this service for aspects such as: Initial transitional work from Pastoral to Spiritual Care with Concordia University; for on-going Professional Development and training; and to staff teams of full-time Spiritual & Community Animators. Our boards have maintained the vision of Bill 118 since its inception in 2000

Keeping the Door Open for Young English-speaking Adults in Québec : Language Learning in English Schools and Centres - Advisory Board on English Education (2016)
During a committee hearing in April 2015, Premier Philippe Couillard responded to a question from Mr. David Birnbaum (MNA for D’Arcy-McGee) about “what our government has done and plans to do to ensure that young anglophone Quebecers are full and valued participants in building our future,” by saying that he wanted to hear from the English-speaking community. About the same time, then-Minister of Education Bolduc asked the Advisory Board on English Education (ABEE) to advise him on how to encourage English-speaking youth to remain in Québec. In May 2016, Premier Couillard identified the English educational sector as a model for the system as a whole, and the Board proposed some reasons for this success in its most recent brief. It should be noted that students in the English sector achieve this success while receiving instruction in two languages from kindergarten onward. The ability to function in two languages is recognized as a crucial socio-economic skill for young Anglophones, and has an impact on their decision whether or not to stay in Québec. How can the education system contribute to developing this skill? This brief is respectfully presented to the Minister of Education with recommendations that respond to this question.

Ouvrir grande la voie aux jeunes adultes anglophones du Québec : Apprentissage linguistique dans les écoles et les centres de formation anglophones - Advisory Board on English Education (2016)
En avril 2015, pendant les débats de la Commission des relations avec les citoyens, M. David Birnbaum (député de D’Arcy-McGee) a demandé au premier ministre « [TRADUCTION] ce que le gouvernement a fait et prévoit faire pour que les jeunes anglophones du Québec participent à part entière à l’édification de notre avenir et que leur contribution soit appréciée ». Le premier ministre Philippe Couillard a répondu vouloir entendre la voix de la communauté anglophone. À la même époque, M. Bolduc, qui était alors ministre de l’Éducation, a demandé à la Commission de l’éducation en langue anglaise (CELA) de lui suggérer des moyens d’encourager les jeunes anglophones à demeurer au Québec. En mai 2016, le premier ministre a présenté le secteur anglophone de l’éducation comme un modèle pour le système dans son ensemble, et la CELA a suggéré dans son plus récent mémoire quelques raisons pouvant expliquer ce succès. Il est à noter que les élèves du secteur anglophone obtiennent d’excellents résultats alors qu’ils apprennent l’anglais et le français dès la maternelle. Cette capacité de fonctionner dans les deux langues, considérée comme une compétence socioéconomique essentielle pour les jeunes anglophones, influe sur leur décision de rester ou non au Québec. Comment le système d’éducation peut-il contribuer à l’acquisition de ces compétences? Les recommandations formulées dans le présent mémoire, respectueusement présenté au ministre de l’Éducation, répondent à cette question.

The Notion of 'Institutional Completeness' in Canada : The Contribution of the Judiciary Towards New Avenues of Non-Territorial Autonomy - Mathieu-Bédard, Raphaëlle (European Centre for Minority Issues, 2016)
This working paper will first expose the concept of IC as it was first coined by Raymond Breton in the 1960s, its explanatory potential and will provide an overview of the academic commentary and criticisms that are addressed to the concept and its application in the literature. Then, the paper will explore different Canadian case studies where the concept of ‘institutional completeness’ has been used in academic literature, before turning to an exploration of a parallel trend in jurisprudence and to the contribution of the Canadian judiciary to the revival of IC in recent years, to its more modern interpretation and recent applications in court judgments as well as in legislations and a few non-judicial agreements.

ELAN Quebec’s core objectives over the next four years are to cultivate and expand upon communication, research, and market-access networks that the organization has already initiated in the English-speaking communities of Quebec (ESCQ). ELAN will execute its network-development strategy through the pursuit of numerous concurrent activities that involve existing and future partnerships with different stakeholders. Activities have been devised across two broad phases: Phase 1 focuses on cultivating and strengthening various networks within Quebec. Phase 2 focuses on expanding the various networks cultivated in Phase 1 beyond Quebec’s borders, to find new audiences for ESCQ culture in Ontario, the Maritimes, and the northeastern United States.

Brief to the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage: Nurturing Media Vitality in Quebec's English-speaking Minority Communities - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) (2016)
English-speaking Quebecers have consistently signalled that access to information in their own language is both a need and a priority. In a world awash with English‑language information through CNN, Time magazine and Hollywood movies galore, this may appear a bit of a contradiction. But the crucial nuance is that English-speaking Quebecers need a full flow of information in their own language about their own local and regional communities. This is becoming increasingly more difficult to achieve and maintain on a consistent basis because of two elements: the francization of daily life in Quebec; and the decline and in many cases the demise of traditional community media.

Mémoire présenté au Comité permanent du patrimoine canadien : Cultiver la vitalité des médias dans les communautés minoritaires d’expression anglaise du Québec - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) (2016)
Les Québécois d’expression anglaise ont toujours exprimé leur besoin impérieux et prioritaire d’avoir accès à de l’information dans leur propre langue (sondage CROP réalisé pour le Réseau communautaire de santé et de services sociaux [RCSSS], diverses années). Cette affirmation peut sembler quelque peu contradictoire dans un monde inondé d’informations de langue anglaise par CNN, le magazine Time et la profusion de films hollywoodiens. Une nuance importante est que les Québécois d’expression anglaise ont besoin d’informations dans leur langue concernant leurs propres communautés locales et régionales. Il s’agit là de quelque chose qui est de plus en plus difficile à obtenir de façon régulière dans le contexte de la francisation de la vie quotidienne au Québec et de la disparition des médias communautaires traditionnels.

Women in the STEM Sector - Jedwab, Jack (2016)
Gender-based analysis (hereafter GBA) is defined by Status of Women Canada “a method for examining how an issue is affected by sex, gender, and other intersecting identity factors. It involves examining disaggregated data, as well as social, economic, and cultural conditions and norms.” (GBA: Gender-Based Analysis Plus, SWC 2015). The goal of this project is to conduct a gender-based analysis of the barriers and opportunities faced by women in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math sector (hereafter STEM), notably when it comes to advancement in their careers. GBA uses sex and gender as entry points to examining an issue, while situating these factors across various identities and experiences. In this report, we focus on the STEM sector, a highly educated group of women from diverse backgrounds, in the Montreal area. We examine this group in relationship to the broader community, as well as focusing on differences across this group, namely in terms of experience within the field.

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 and level of bilingualism. This report from the 2015 survey is intended as a companion to the 2015-2016 Baseline Data Report entitled English Language Access to Health and Social Services in Québec, which includes a summary of results from Focus Group sessions conducted in several regions around the province.

Baseline Data Report 2015-2016 : English-language Health and Social Services Access in Québec - Pocock, Joanne (Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN), 2016)
This 2015-2016 Baseline Data Report relays the health and social service findings of the 2015 CHSSN/CROP Survey on Community Vitality. 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 (2005, 2010, and 2015) also collects the opinions, perceptions and expectations of a representative sample of English-speaking Quebecers in most regions of Quebec with respect to issues in education, human resource development, justice, culture and communications. The 2015 study replicates previous surveys conducted by CROP in 2000 for the Missisquoi Institute and again in 2005 and 2010 for the CHSSN.

Community Models for Health Promotion and Public Partner Engagement - Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN) (2016)
Health promotion is an activity that community organizations can adopt to enhance visibility and credibility in their communities. Health promotion activities can respond to real needs of different groups and create opportunities to engage the public system with the community organization and the constituencies it serves. For the public network, a community organization that has established a health promotion role has the potential to become a prime partner in helping an institution better serve its target population. In recent years, community networks have developed health promotion programs that have reached thousands of community members and can now demonstrate positive results. The Forum will discuss how this development is resulting in promising and best practices, and inspiring a range of public and community interests to engage in health promotion for English-speaking communities.

A Brief on Bill 86 : An Act to Modify the Organization and Governance of School Boards to Give Schools a Greater Say in Decision-making and Ensure Parents' Presence Within Each School Board's Decision-making Body - Quebec Federation of Home and School Associations (QFHSA) (2016)
To say that the English‐speaking community dislikes the proposed Bill 86 would be a gross understatement. To say the English‐speaking community views Bill 86 as an attack on its continued existence in Quebec is the more accurate view of the community’s feelings about this “projet de loi”. The community senses, with this bill, a fundamental shift that seeks to completely submerge and eradicate any public sign of the presence of the English‐speaking community in Quebec. The community feels threatened not only about the future of its schools, but equally about its continued existence as an entity. The impression is that the present government is pursuing a systematic dismantling of the public institutions serving the English‐speaking community and increasingly diminishing its role in the public life of the province. The importance of the presence of our public institutions cannot be understated either, as they are an extremely important social construct acting as central pillars or anchors on which our community is built. The dictionary defines an institution as follows: “an organization, establishment, foundation, society, or the like, devoted to the promotion of a particular cause or program, especially one of a public, educational, or charitable character.”

Dire que la communauté anglophone n'aime pas le projet de loi n° 86 serait un euphémisme. Une vue plus précise des sentiments de la communauté sur le projet de loi serait de dire qu’elle voit le projet de loi comme une attaque contre son existence au Québec. La communauté entrevoit, avec ce projet de loi, un changement fondamental qui cherche à submerger complètement et à éradiquer tout signe public de la présence de la communauté anglophone au Québec. La communauté se sent menacée non seulement dans l'avenir de ses écoles, mais également dans sa persistance en tant qu'entité. La communauté a l'impression que le gouvernement actuel poursuit un démantèlement systématique des institutions publiques desservant la collectivité anglophone et réduit de plus en plus le rôle qu’elle joue dans la vie publique de la province. L'importance de la présence de nos institutions publiques ne peut pas être sousestimée non plus, car elles sont des constructions sociales extrêmement importantes agissant comme piliers centraux ou ancres sur laquelle est bâtie une communauté. Le dictionnaire définit une institution comme suit « une organisation, création, fondation, société, ou autre – en particulier de caractère public, éducatif ou caritatif – consacrée à la promotion d’une cause ou d'un programme spécifique, ».

This portrait has been completed by Townshippers’ Association and the Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN), in collaboration with the Centre de santé et des services sociaux Val-Saint-François and the Richmond & Region Community Learning Center. Townshippers’ Association is a non-profit, non-partisan community organization focused on promoting and supporting the interests of the English-speaking minority community in the Eastern Townships region of Quebec. The Association was founded in 1979 to ensure the English-speaking community would remain visible despite a declining population. Through a variety of initiatives, Townshippers’ works to strengthen the community and culture of English-speaking Townshippers, open doors of opportunity for youth and promote access to health, social and other services in English. Townshippers’ also strives to encourage the active participation of English-speakers in all aspects of the greater community, in order to help the English-speaking community of the Eastern Townships build bridges with their French-speaking neighbours. The main objective of this portrait is to contribute to a more in-depth understanding of the English-speaking community of Richmond and the surrounding area, in order to inform future actions.

Le Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) est un organisme à but non lucratif constitué en société en vertu d’une loi fédérale.

Le QCGN est un centre d’expertise fondée sur des données probantes, dont l’action collective est axée sur des enjeux stratégiques ayant une incidence sur le développement et la vitalité du Québec d’expression anglaise. Un certain nombre de membres du QCGN ont exprimé leur inquiétude sur les incidences du projet de loi no 56 — la Loi sur la transparence en matière de lobbyisme — sur leurs activités. Malheureusement, la voix du secteur à but non lucratif au service de notre communauté a été largement absente des consultations publiques antérieures et en cours sur la question, ce qui entraîne beaucoup de malentendus à propos de cette législation au sein des organismes d’expression anglaise.

Brief to the Committee on Culture and Education : Quebec and the Minority Language Educational Rights and Canada’s English Linguistic Minority Communities: A New Partnership - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) (2016)
Voting in elections is an intrinsic right for all Quebecers. It is beyond democratic tradition for government to capriciously remove these rights without a pressing and substantial reason. 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.

Mémoire à la Commission de la culture et de l’éducation : Le Québec et les droits à l’instruction dans la langue de la minorité, et les communautés d’expression anglaise en situation minoritaire au Canada : Un nouveau partenariat - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) (2016)
Voter aux élections est un droit intrinsèque pour tous les Québécois. Mais le gouvernement va à l’encontre de sa tradition démocratique en révoquant capricieusement ce droit sans aucune raison impérieuse ou importante. Le système d’écoles publiques anglophones du Québec est une institution qui joue un rôle clé au sein de la communauté d’expression anglaise de la province — une communauté linguistique en situation minoritaire. La gestion et le contrôle de ces institutions sont une question de gouvernance qui touche les droits à l’instruction dans la langue de la minorité, ces droits étant enchâssés dans la Charte canadienne des droits et libertés et dans la tradition démocratique du Québec, ainsi qu’exprimés dans les droits politiques garantis par la Charte des droits et libertés de la personne du Québec. Le gouvernement du Québec a le devoir de reconnaître sa communauté linguistique minoritaire et de travailler en partenariat avec elle afin de garantir la gestion et le contrôle efficaces du système d’écoles publiques anglophones.

Brief for Official Language Policy Review 2016 - English Language Arts Network (ELAN) (2016)
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.

Provincial Resource Team Report 2015-2016 - Leading English Education and Resource Network (LEARN) (2016)
Over the last ten years, English schools in Quebec have increasingly embraced the dual role of supporting student perseverance and contributing to the vitality of their English-speaking communities. With more than 80 schools and adult education centres across the province now part of the Community Learning Centre (CLC) network, it is evident that School Boards are adopting a new way of thinking about school and community partnerships. This “integrated focus on academics, services, supports and opportunities leads to improved student learning, stronger families and healthier communities. Schools become centers of the community”
