I’ll start with the good part. Creating an official languages tribunal is a good idea, and I also think using research to better support the implementation of the act is very positive. On the whole, I think the bill is quite good.
However, I would point to a few issues. With respect to consultation, establishing an advisory council under the act is a good thing, but I would have included more community representation. As the proposal stands, the membership of the advisory council would include an FCFA representative, a Quebec Community Groups Network, or QCGN, representative, and a representative from each community. I would have liked to see a truly representative advisory council, one that couldn't serve as a pretext not to consult communities when creating policies.
