QCGN Looks Forward to Champion for All Official Language Minority Communities
Montreal, June 7, 2017 – The Quebec Community Groups Network is appreciative that Madeleine Meilleur has decided to withdraw her name from consideration as Canada’s next Commissioner of Official Languages. We hope an open, transparent and inclusive process is enacted to choose a Commissioner of Official Languages
“We congratulate Mme Meilleur for her wisdom and grace in withdrawing under difficult circumstances,” said QCGN President James Shea. “Despite years of yeoman service to Francophone minority communities in Ontario and across Canada, it was increasingly evident that she did not have enough of an understanding or a deep commitment to our English minority community here in Quebec.”
