Plan to cap spaces in English-language CEGEPs could have unintended consequences
Quebec’s new language reform, Bill 96, proposes to cap the number of places in English-language CEGEPs. It would also give priority to anglophone students.
However, the Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) said the government should be focusing on ensuring students become bilingual.
“(Students) who can fill the needs of business, the businesses already here and the businesses wanting to come in and invest in Quebec,” said QCGN director general, Sylvia Martin-Laforge.
