Title
QCGN Analysis of Quebec's Five Orientations to Modernize Canada's OfficialLanguages Act
Abstract
Quebec’s proposal belies a fundamental misunderstanding of the history, purpose, and application of the OLA. It takes direct aim at the division of powers contained in the Constitution Act, 1867, seeking to extend Quebec’s legislative jurisdiction. The Government of Quebec is demanding exclusive authority to act in matters of language, “on its territory”. This poses an existential threat to the official language rights of all Canadians, French and English.
