Roadmap for Canada's Linguistic Duality 2008-2013

Context

The Roadmap for Canada's Linguistic Duality follows the 2003-2008 Action Plan for Official Languages, which ended on March 31, 2008. It reaffirms the Government's support for Canada's linguistic duality, as set out in the 2007 Speech from the Throne and the Budget 2008.

The Roadmap was developed after listening to Canadians on issues pertaining to linguistic duality and the development of official-language minority communities. These views were obtained during consultations held in December 2007 and January 2008.

Content

The Roadmap for Canada's Linguistic Duality is the Government of Canada's official languages strategy for the period from April 1, 2008, to March 31, 2013. Although the strategy outlines the Government's major policy directions, it is not the only action being taken. The Roadmap is just one of the many components making up the Government of Canada's Official Languages Program.
