Bilingualism

March 19, 2021
On this International Francophonie Day, PSAC is proud to highlight the importance of French within the Canadian public service. French contributes to the cultural and linguistic diversity of Canada. It lives in every province and territory, spread by francophones, Francophiles and bilingual people. And as such, francophone communities across the country are flourishing. We see it in the increased popularity of French immersion schools and programs, ensuring a bright future for the French-speaking world.

While the Ford government is backing away from its decision to abolish the Office of the French Language Services Commissioner, the Public Service Alliance of Canada believes that the reversal should also include the government’s plans to scrap the creation of a Francophone university. This change in direction comes a few days after the Ontario government announced cuts to Ontario's Francophone institutions, causing dismay across the country.
