La Loi sur les langues officielles et la Charte de la langue française : vers un consensus?
|
Abstract |
The author points out that in their original forms, the federal language policy (The Official Languages Act) and Quebec's Bill 101 (The Charter of the French Language) stand in stark contrast to each other. The former embraces the personality principle, individual rights to language and linguistic equality; the latter, collective rights, territoriality and the priority of the French language. The author notes that in the past twenty years, both policies have evolved, with the result that there are several parallels in practice which indicates that they are ultimately compatible in effect. In this context, he argues that the prospects for the mutual coexistence of the two policies in their present form are more favourable than some critics would suggest.
