Montreal will now have its own French language commissioner

“The French language is the one that unites us.”

Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante has announced the creation of a French language commissioner position for the city. The individual chosen for this position will be mandated to monitor the implementation of the action plan to enhance the presence of French in Montreal. The plan, which was introduced in March, was adopted by the executive committee on Wednesday.

“The French language is the one that unites us and that we always want to promote more. This is why we are creating the position of French language commissioner for Montreal.”
