Title

Report of the 2021 Review of the Official Languages Act of New Brunswick: Organization, Communication and Commitment

Abstract

The Official Languages Act has been part of the New-Brunswick landscape for over 50 years. It guarantees the equality of the official languages and the linguistic communities and ensures that New Brunswickers are served by their government in the language of their choice. In February 2021, two commissioners were appointed by the Premier to lead the review of the Official Languages Act (the Act). The objective with this first report is to provide Government and the people of New Brunswick with an action-oriented reference document to improve the provisions of the Act and ensure its proper implementation. The document presents 8 recommendations, among which the 5th and 6th target health services and nursing homes respectively.
