English-speaking Quebec and the Modernization of the Official Languages Act : Brief Submitted to the Standing Senate Committee on Official Languages Study on Canadians' Views about Modernizing the Official Language Act
Abstract
The Quebec Community Groups Network (“QCGN”) welcomes this opportunity to contribute to this Committee’s study on modernizing the Official Languages Act (“the Act”). In the spirit of modernization, the QCGN takes this opportunity to present a picture of the contemporary English-speaking community of Quebec. As this Committee noted in 2011, there are certain widely-held myths regarding this community. The QCGN hopes to contribute to a modernized understanding of this community and its role as a unique and important official language minority community in Canada.
