Official languages commissioner concerned by Quebec’s plan to expand Bill 101 to federal businesses
Raymond Théberge, Canada’s commissioner of official languages, says he has reservations about the desire of Quebec and three federal parties to extend the application of the province’s French language charter — commonly known as Bill 101 — to businesses in Quebec that are under federal jurisdiction.
“The question I ask myself is: what will be the impact of this decision?” asked the commissioner in a recent interview with The Canadian Press.
