Description

In May 2022, Quebec’s National Assembly passed Bill 96– An Act respecting French, the official and common language of Quebec – which amends the Charter of the French Language from 1977. Bill 96 makes the French language more prominent in Quebec and has a wide-ranging impact on companies with operations in the province, including French proficiency, adhesion contracts, internal and external communications, hiring processes, trademarks, immigration, and more. This attorney panel will explore the legal and compliance challenges faced by businesses as Bill 96 took effect on June 1, 2023.
