Quebec’s Bill 101 language law turning 40 years old
MONTREAL — A group that defends the French language is urging the Quebec government to do more to enforce Bill 101 as the 40th anniversary of the landmark language law approaches.
Partenaires pour un Quebec francais says the government is failing in its mission to adequately defend the language.
Its members, who include prominent labour leaders as well as the head of the main artists’ union, held a news conference Tuesday — four days before the 40th anniversary of the law coming into effect.
They said not enough is being done to ensure the law is being applied in its entirety.
