The Official Languages Day is an opportunity to promote official languages and to celebrate the rich linguistic heritage found all across the country. Marked every year, it highlights the central role official languages play in forging Canadian identity and the values of the public service.
With the theme “Uniting Around Canadian Books,” this event will focus on the diversity of Canadian voices and the importance of literature in discovering, learning about and building bridges between the major language communities.
Participants will meet people with diverse talents, discover books that reflect different Canadian realities and gain new insights into the role of literature in intercultural Canadian dialogue.
This event is organized by the Council of the Network of Official Languages Champions in partnership with the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat and Canadian Heritage and with the collaboration of the Linguistic Duality Network.
