Quebec’s message to anglophones: we’ve been down this road before, TALQ says

TALQ Director General Sylvia-Martin Laforge says Christine Fréchette’s message to the English-speaking community needs to be followed by concrete action.

TALQ says Premier Christine Fréchette’s recent message of reassurance to anglophones must be backed up by concrete action, not just words.

Martin-Laforge highlights ongoing concerns within the anglophone community about their place in Quebec’s language and identity debates, and calls for tangible policy measures to ensure that commitments to inclusion are actually implemented.
