Symposium

Welcome!

On March 2, 3 & 4 2004, the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages, in partnership with Canadian Heritage, Intergovernmental Affairs and Canadian Parents for French, organized a symposium on official languages. This symposium, entitled Vision and Challenges for the 21^st Century, brought together stakeholders from various sectors of Canadian society to discuss issues, and propose solutions, with regard to achieving one of the objectives of the federal government’s Action Plan for Official Languages. This objective is to double by 2013 the number of young Canadians with a knowledge of their second official language.
