Title
Do you speak English? Traitement sociopolitique de l’accessibilité aux services en santé mentale pour les anglophones du Québec
Abstract
In 1977, the Government of Quebec adopted the Charter of the French Language - Bill 101-, which (among other things) changed the management of language in the delivery of health and social services. The authors point out that at the same time, numerous reports, study committees and policies transformed institutional and community practices with respect to people with mental health problems. The authors question what impact this period of great change, when policy responses were implemented to address linguistic concerns, had on the mental healthcare of Quebec Anglophones. The authors trace the overall evolution of the sociopolitical process that has surrounded the issue of the accessibility of mental health services for Anglophones, paying particular attention to the situation in Montreal.
