Navigating the changes taking place with respect to language
laws in Canada can be a challenge for businesses across the
country. New requirements as proposed in An Act Respecting
French, the Official and Common language of Quebec, could mean
significant amendments to the Charter of the French
Language (Bill 101). If adopted, some of these changes will
affect all businesses operating or having employees in Quebec.
Understanding and implementing the new laws, as proposed, will
be critical for business entities in order to remain compliant. In
a recent webinar series presented by Osler, partners of our
Litigation, Labour & Employment and Pension & Benefits
groups provide important insights. You can also, find out more
about the public consultation process in the first webinar, with
the participation of Ms. Monique Jérôme-Forget, former
Québec Minister of Finance.
