Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the threat of another Quebec referendum on independence looms, this book becomes important for every Canadian — especially as language remains both a barrier and a bridge in our divided country Canada’s language policy is the only connection between two largely unilingual societies — English-speaking Canada and French-speaking Quebec. The country’s success in staying together depends on making it work. How well is it working? Graham Fraser, an English-speaking Canadian who became bilingual, decided to take a clear-eyed look at the situation. The results are startling — a blend of good news and bad. The Official Languages Act was passed with the support of every party in the House way back in 1969 — yet Canada’s language policy is still a controversial, red-hot topic; jobs, ideals, and ultimately the country are at stake. And the myth that the whole thing was always a plot to get francophones top jobs continues to live. Graham Fraser looks at the intentions, the hopes, the fears, the record, the myths, and the unexpected reality of a country that is still grappling with the language challenge that has shaped its history. He finds a paradox: after letting Quebec lawyers run the country for three decades, Canadians keep hoping the next generation will be bilingual — but forty years after learning that the country faced a language crisis, Canada’s universities still treat French as a foreign language. He describes the impact of language on politics and government (not to mention social life in Montreal and Ottawa) in a hard-hitting book that will be discussed everywhere, including the headlines in both languages.

Book excerpt: The Canadian Constitution does not contain any provisions relating to jurisdiction in matters of language. In a decision rendered in 1988, the Supreme Court of Canada affirmed that "language is not an independent matter of legislation but is rather 'ancillary' to the exercise of jurisdiction with respect to some class of subject matter assigned to Parliament or the provincial legislatures by the Constitution Act, 1867." The power to legislate in matters of language therefore belongs to both the federal and provincial levels of government, according to their respective legislative authority. The first Official Languages Act (OLA) was passed by the federal government in July 1969, in response to the work of the Royal Commission of Inquiry on Bilingualism and Biculturalism. In 1982, the entrenchment of language rights in the Constitution opened a new chapter in the evolution of this issue. The OLA was revised in 1988 to take into account the new constitutional order. The new Act expanded the legislative basis for linguistic policies and programs adopted by the federal government. The OLA was revised again in November 2005 to clarify the duties of federal institutions with respect to enhancing the vitality of official language minority communities and promoting linguistic duality.

Book excerpt: In a 1988 decision, the Supreme Court of Canada affirmed that the power to legislate in matters of language belongs to both the federal and provincial levels of government, according to their respective legislative authority.1 The first Official Languages Act was passed by the federal government in July 1969, in response to the work of the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism. [...] The former coordinates the commitment in Part VII of the OLA to "enhancing the vitality of the English and French linguistic minority communities in Canada and supporting and assisting their development; and fostering the full recognition and use of both English and French in Canadian society."12. [...] Each year, the Department of Canadian Heritage summarizes the actual expenditures for each of the activities undertaken by the federal institutions identified in the horizontal strategies.13 The Senate14 and House of Commons15 Standing Committees on Official Languages follow the implementation of the OLA and its accompanying regulations and instructions, and the implementation of annual reports su [...] All federal institutions are subject to the OLA,16 and some are subject to the obligations relating to communications with and services to the public in both official languages, in accordance with the criteria set out in the Official Languages (Communications with and Services to the Public) Regulations 17 (e.g., criteria relating to significant demand and nature of the office). [...] The Official Languages Centre of Excellence within the Treasury Board Secretariat and the Official Languages Branch within Canadian Heritage oversee the implementation of the Official Languages Program through annual reviews prepared by federal institutions on the achievement of objectives relating to Parts IV, V, VI and VII of the OLA.

With the tabling of this third interim report, the Standing Senate Committee on Official Languages is now halfway through its study on the modernization of the Act. After hearing from young Canadians and representatives of official language minority communities, the committee wanted to take a look at how the Act has been implemented from its inception in 1969 to today. The committee therefore invited people who have witnessed its evolution to give testimony or submit a brief. This report presents the views of individuals who are very familiar with how the Act works and have experienced the effects of its implementation on a day-to-day basis. It summarizes the perspectives of former community organization representatives, judges, commissioners and public servants as well as current politicians, researchers and representatives of the province of New Brunswick"--Report highlights, page v.

Download or read book The Legal Recognition of Sign Languages written by Maartje De Meulder and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the first ever comprehensive overview of national laws recognising sign languages, the impacts they have and the advocacy campaigns which led to their creation. It comprises 18 studies from communities across Europe, the US, South America, Asia and New Zealand. They set sign language legislation within the national context of language policies in each country and show patterns of intersection between language ideologies, public policy and deaf communities’ discourses. The chapters are grounded in a collaborative writing approach between deaf and hearing scholars and activists involved in legislative campaigns. Each one describes a deaf community’s expectations and hopes for legal recognition and the type of sign language legislation achieved. The chapters also discuss the strategies used in achieving the passage of the legislation, as well as an account of barriers confronted and surmounted (or not) in the legislative process. The book will be of interest to language activists in the fields of sign language and other minority languages, policymakers and researchers in deaf studies, sign linguistics, sociolinguistics, human rights law and applied linguistics.
