Greater Sudbury to review its French-language policy
CTV
For the first time in 22 years, Greater Sudbury reviewing its French-language policy.
Ward 6 Coun. René Lapierre asked for the review, with support from Ward 12 Joscelyne Landry-Altmann at a meeting last week.
"I'm looking to see what other municipalities who have French-language services offer, how do they offer it, what's mandatory and what's not," said Lapierre.
"On the HR side, do we have any positions that are designated that should be bilingual versus not. It's complex overall but I think we're already doing a number of good things."
The motion came after a request from L'Association canadienne-française de l'Ontario du grand Sudbury and its executive director, Joanne Gervais.
