A Policy for the English-speaking Community of Quebec - Alliance Quebec (AQ) (1982)
We are almost one million English-speaking Quebecers. We regard Quebec as our home. Our community has participated in more than two hundred years of Quebec's history. We have contributed to the building of one of the world's most stable, prosperous and culturally rich societies. We believe that the interplay of the influences of Quebec's French-speaking and English-speaking peoples has been mutually enriching.

Working Papers on English Language Institutions in Quebec - Schachter, Susan (Alliance Quebec (AQ), 1982)
This project was designed to provide a resource for Quebec's English-speaking community and others who feel the need for information about themselves and those institutions usually identified as "English". The decision that such a resource was needed was based on both objective and subjective criteria. Objectively, the English-speaking population of Quebec is, and always has been, an unstable one; that is, large numbers of English-speaking people have always been among those moving to and from the province, Ieaving behind a relatively small core of their fellows with deep roots in Quebec. This high turn-over in population has affected the continuity of the English-speaking community. Such a state of fluidity has made it difficult to evolve a distinctive English-speaking cultural identity with Quebec as its focal point. On the other hand, it has Ied to a discontinuity in the knowledge of our economic, political and cultural role in Quebec. Hence, the need for a resource such as this.

English-speaking Communities of Quebec : Needs Identification Document - Alliance Quebec (AQ) (1981)
"If Quebec's Anglophone - or better, non-Francophones - feel isolated and insecure, it is precisely because they are not the monolithic and plutocratic leviathan of popular culture. And if they do not avail themselves much of the Official Languages Act, it is not because the federal performance in Quebec is impeccable, but becuase the relevance of the law to their situation has been very slow to get through." (1979 Annual Report of the Federal Commissioner of Official Languages, page 24).

Les buts de cette conference etaient de sensibiliser le public en general (Noir et Blanc) c'est-a-dire, les parents et les enfants, les etudiants et les enseignants, les organisations gouvernementales et para-publiques au racisme et au sexisme, qui existent dans les manuels scolaires de trouver des solutions aces problemes et d'utiliser notre force collective afin d'effectuer les changements sociaux constructifs.

National Regional Committee National Congress of Black Women Report - Montreal Regional Committee National Congress of Black Women (1981)
The objectives of this Conference were aimed at sensitizing the general public (Black and White) i.e. parents and children, students and teachers, governmental and para-public organizations, to the racism and sexism found in the textbooks used in our school system, to develop solutions to these problems and to use our collective strength to bring about constructive social change.

1980 Annual General Meeting : Book of Reports - Quebec Federation of Home and School Associations (QFHSA) (1980)

A Rationale for Changing Bill 101 - La Commission des écoles catholiques de Montrèal (1979)
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.

A Position Paper on Measurement & Evaluation to Department of Education Province of Quebec - Quebec Federation of Home and School Associations (QFHSA) (1974)
The Quebec Federation of Home and School Associations welcomes the opportunity to express its concerns on the subject of Measurement and Evaluation. It is pleased that the Depatment of Education desires to assume a greater role in facilitating communication among "the various members of the educational community" as well as providing them with services to aid them in their individual responsibllities.

Tabulation of Grass-roots Opinions Re Proposed Re-Structuring of Education in Montreal Presented to Council for School Reorganization - Quebec Federation of Protestant Home and School Associations (1968)
At the request of the Council for School Reorganization, Quebec Federation of Home & School Associations secured answers to a questionnaire based upon specific recommendations of the Royal Commission on Inquiry on Education, better known as the Parent Commission. Quebec Federation feels that the results, presented below, give a valid summary of opinions. Locals in all parts of the island took part, representing all socio-economic levels, and the results should reflect the views of a representative cross-section of the membership.

Report of Sex Education Committee - Quebec Federation of Protestant Home & School Associations (1967)
The term "sex education" as used in the terms of reference has been interpreted by the committee to mean education in which sexual, biological and physiological facts are only disclosed in the full context of human relations. It must be made clear at the outset therefore, that sex education, in our opinion, cannot consist of less than education in Human Relations in which sexual growth is seen as part of the whole growth of the individual and in which basic sexual facts are discussed in the context of the growing boy and girl in their development into manhood and womanhood.

A Response to the Question "What is the Nature of the Protestant School System as this Time?" for the Protestant Committee of the Superior Council of Education - Quebec Federation of Home and School Associations (QFHSA) (1965)
Quebec Federation of Home & School Associations (QFHSA) is pleased to be part of the consultation process with the Protestant milieu on the nature of the Protestant school, undertaken this year by the Protestant Committee. Time did not permit us to circulate widely the question "What is the Nature of the Protestant School System in Quebec at this Time?", but it was discussed by the Board of Directors and a representative number of our local association members were consulted. It is also important to point out that while the membership by local association in QFHSA is within the Protestant school system, as defined by our Letters Patent, individual family membership is open to all. Both the WFHSA Constitution and that of its parent organization, The Canadian Home and School and Parent-Teacher Federation, states what we are non-sectarian. Having said that, we are well aware of the role that Home and School Associations play in the Protestant school system where parent volunteers are in close contact with students, teachers, and administrators who make up the system known as Protestant.

Black Community Archive of Montreal - Bayne, Clarence S
The human social system is a complex adaptive system. It consists of a network of live and non-live agents interacting and responding to continuous change in the agents and system itself: a change I any agent causes other agents to change. This causes the system to change, which causes further changes in agents, and the process continues infinitely.

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.

Socio-demographic Profile of Children Aged 0 to 5 and Their Parents RTS de l'Estrie - Pocock, Joanne (Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN))
Early child development (ECD) is a cornerstone of human development and childhood and is considered to be the most important developmental phase of an individual’s lifespan. The developmental outcomes of this early phase of life impact the level of health and well-being enjoyed by a population in its future. Early child development is a social determinant of the health of communities and it is a process that is particularly sensitive to social determinants like the socio-economic status of families with children aged 0-5 and their social environment, access to health and social services, communication competency and literacy and access to local social support networks.

Socio-demographic Profile of the Population Aged 65 and Over - Province of Québec - Pocock, Joanne (Community Health and Social Services Network)
These profiles draw from the 2016 Census of Canada to provide pertinent socio-demographic information on the seniors aged 65 and over of Québec’s English-speaking communities and their families in accordance with Québec’s RTS (réseau territorial de services) territories. They include information on their numbers, where they live, family structures they are part of, socio-economic issues they face, their status as recent immigrants to Québec, aboriginal identity and their likelihood to be members of a visible minority. Each regional profile includes tables, graphs and information bullets that provide provincial and regional statistics for selected characteristics as well as comparisons between French- speaking majority and English-speaking minority populations within these administrative territories.

Aller de l'avant : Renforcer les capacités de recherche en lien avec les aînés d’expression anglaise du Québec - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
La population canadienne vieillit plus rapidement aujourd’hui que jamais auparavant. En 2011, on estime que cinq millions de Canadiens étaient âgés de 65 ans et plus. On s’attend à ce que ce chiffre double d’ici à 22-25 ans pour atteindre 10,4 millions en 2036. Ici au Québec, les défis et les opportunités de la population vieillissante sont amplifiés. En 2011, près de 1,3 million de personnes vivant au Québec étaient âgées de 65 ans et plus. Parmi ces derniers, environ 160 000 étaient âgés de 85 ans et plus. Comme les baby-boomers (nés entre 1946 et 1966) continuent à vieillir, on estime que le nombre de personnes âgées de 65 ans et plus augmentera de 16 % de la population en 2011 à 26 % en 2031. Ceci représente un million de personnes âgées additionnel au Québec d’ici aux 30 prochaines années.

Bill 10's Impact on Access Programs : Info sheet no.6 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) (Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN))
Access Programs have been part of the process of making government funded health and social services available in English in Quebec since the 1980s. Essentially an Access Program is an inventory for a given region of which services are available in English, and where they can be accessed.

Bill 10's Impact on Advisory Committees : Info sheet no.7 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
Bill 10, provides for a new volunteer committee available, if requested, to each and every merged institution under the responsibility of a Centre Intégré (CI). The committee is known as an Advisory Committee for the specific merged institution. The role of an Advisory Committee is to make recommendations to the board of the CI into which the former institution was merged with respect to preservation of the cultural, historic, linguistic, and local characteristics of the merged institution. When applicable it also establishes the necessary ties with the foundation related to, and with the persons responsible for research activities in the merged institution. For more about the reorganization of health institutions see Info sheet no. 1 on Bill 10’s impact on the status of public institutions.

Bill 10's Impact on Foundations : Info sheet no.8 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
Many public health and social service institutions have been supported in their work over the years by a foundation, often named after the institution it supports; for example, the Batshaw Youth and Family Centres Foundation, the St Mary’s Hospital Foundation, or the Jeffery Hale-Saint Brigid’s Friends’ Foundation. In the English-speaking community some of these foundations have existed for many decades and are part of the history and identity of those groups within the English-speaking community that founded them. Bill 10 did not directly change anything that affects the legal foundation or the governance of such foundations, but the consequences of Bill 10 do have direct and real impacts on the way foundations interact with the institution they support which is now merged into another, new institution with a different name.

Bill 10's Impact on Institutional Property Ownership : Info sheet no.9 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
The institutions merged under Bill 10 into a Centre Intégré (CI) were merged by amalgamation or by grouping. Under merger by amalgamation the merged institution loses its legal identity and therefore no longer exists as an institution. The new CI assumes all of the responsibilities, liabilities and assets of the merged institution, including human resources and property. Under merger by grouping, the institution keeps its legal identity and therefore continues to exist. The new CI assumes all of the responsibilities, liabilities and assets of the grouped institution, including human resources but not property. The grouped institution keeps the ownership of its property.

Bill 10's Impact on Regional Access Committees : Info sheet no.5 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
The Government of Quebec has created Regional Access Committees on the delivery of health and social services in English. Each of Quebec’s Health Regions (two Aboriginal Health Regions excepted) is required to have a Regional Access Committee. The committees are referred to simply as Regional Committees in the legislation.

Bill 10's Impact on the Provincial Committee on the Delivery of Services in English : Info sheet no.4 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
The Government of Quebec has created a Provincial Committee (PC) on the delivery of health and social services in English. The committee is sometimes referred to as the Provincial Advisory Committee, but ‘Advisory’ is not part of its official title.

Bill 10's Impact on the Right to Complain : Info sheet no.11 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
Adoption of Bill 10 did not modify the complaints regime established by the Act respecting health services and social services. However, mention of the complaints regime is included in these Info sheets to remind interested readers that it exists, and can be used with respect to issues related to access to health and social services in English. The number of reported complaints on this topic is quite low. This may be because users are satisfied with access to services in English. But other information1 suggests that there is a level of dissatisfaction with respect to access to certain types of services, and in certain institutions that exists but is not manifested by official complaints.

Bill 10's Impact on the Status of Public Institutions : Info sheet no.1 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
Bill 10, adopted in February 2015, substantially changed certain provisions of Quebec’s Health and Social Service Act (S 4.2). In particular, it radically altered the way in which Quebec’s public health and social services system is administered. It had far-reaching effects on the status of the institutions that deliver health and social services, merging almost all institutions into 22 Centres Intégrés that now deliver all of the regionally based services. The only exceptions are seven highly specialized hospitals (five in Montreal, two in Quebec City), one institution that already resembled a Centre Intégré (in region 10), and five institutions that deliver services to the Cree, Inuit and Naskapi communities (located respectively in regions 18, 17 and 09).

Bill 10's Impact on Users' and Residents' Committees : Info sheet no.10 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
One way in which those required to utilize the services of the health and social services network administered by the province can ensure that their rights are respected, including their access to services in English, is by referring to and/or participating in a Users’ Committee or a Residents’ Committee (also know as in-patient committees). These committees may also exist in private institutions. The committees are comprised of volunteers elected by users or in-patients.

Community Development Plan for the English-speaking Communities of Quebec 2005-2010 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
Profound social, economic and political changes have transformed Quebec society during the past forty years. As we enter the 21st century, we are far enough away from the most intense upheaval and emotional turbulence to look back with a measure of objectivity. As we plan for the future, it is opportune to reflect upon past conditions that brought us to where we are today. Our minority community feels vulnerable. Demographic trends are disturbing and seemingly irreversible. We often feel that the majority neither understand us nor will make any serious effort to defend us. We have to fight for our survival.

English-speaking Community Representation in Network Governance : Info sheet no.3 - Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN)
Bill 10 adopted in February 2015, did not replace the Health and Social Services Act, often referred to as S 4.2. But it substantially changed certain of its provisions. In particular, it radically altered the way in which Quebec’s public health and social services system is administered. It changed the identity of the institutions that deliver health and social services, the composition and manner of appointment of board members, and for the first time created the possibility for at least one person coming from the English-speaking community to have a seat on each one of the 22 Centre Intégrés (CI) which now deliver all of the regionally based services. There is one CI per region where CIs exist, except Gaspé which has two, Montérégie which has three, and Montréal which has five.

Portrait of the English-speaking Population of the South Shore : Montérégie-Centre - Richardson, Mary (Community Health and Social Services Network)
This community portrait is a project of the Assistance and Referral Centre (ARC) and the Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN), in collaboration with the Centre intégré de santé et de services sociaux de la Montérégie-Centre. ARC is a community-based organization that promotes access to services in English through networking; information and referrals; and supporting the development of community-wide initiatives. The main objective of this portrait is to contribute to a more in-depth understanding of the English-speaking community of Montérégie-Centre, in order to inform future actions. To do so, we present a brief introduction into community development and its connections to health and well-being. Then we provide an overview of the South Shore region (Montérégie-Centre), including some history of the English-speaking community. This is followed by some key statistics on the English-speaking population, using the health territory divisions. Finally we present some complementary information on healthy habits among youth and adults.

Policy Brief : Mental Health and Suicide Prevention - Nunavik, Quebec - Youth for Youth Québec (Y4Y Québec)
In recent years, communities across Nunavik have received attention for other reasons than their young demographic: a growing suicide epidemic. In fact, remote and northern communities in Canada have consitently experienced the most significant effects of suicide in the country, with general incidence rates staggering at ten times the national average and as much as 24 times the national average (National Observer, 2019) for Inuit youth across Nunavik. Although there was a window between 2009 and 2013 when suicide was on the decline, the tendency has been consistently increasing for the past seven years (CBC, 2018).

Recommendations to Help Alleviate the Effects of Linguistic Insecurity - Youth for Youth Québec (Y4Y Québec) (Y4Y Québec)
In 2014, the Fédération de la jeunesse canadienne-française (2018) began a mandate to investigate “linguistic insecurity” and its existence amongst French-speaking youth in Canada. While French-speakers’ experience often belies an internal conflict between the various Frenchspeaking communities of Canada, linguistic insecurity is also a phenomenon experienced by English-speaking Quebecers.
