Education in English: It's about you! Know your rights! Language Rights Support Program: for the clarification and advancement of constitutional language rights in Canada
Your education rights:
Know them! Use them!

 
The LRSP's awareness campaign on constitutional language rights in education has been launched!

Since the end of February, informative messages are being broadcast in French throughout radio stations that are members of the Alliance des radios communautaires du Canada. Starting the 2nd week of March, English-language messages will be broadcast throughout several community radio stations in Quebec. These radio messages will be available online soon.

During the month of March, check your community newspapers for the LRSP's special insert in English in Quebec and in French in provinces and territories outside Quebec.
