Hello, I would like to obtain all reports, briefing notes, presentations and administrative directives concerning the use of official languages in the Parliament of Canada, including the House of Commons and the Senate over the past 5 years (2019 to 2023). The use of official languages touches on the following subjects: the experiences/stories of employees (political and non-political) and parliamentarians (MPs and Senators); the staffing of bilingual and non-bilingual positions, the right to work in the official language of one's choice, the right to an offer of services in both official languages, interpretation in parliamentary proceedings, translation of parliamentary documents and the formulation of bills in both official languages. Thank you in advance for your consideration of my request.Organization: Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages

Last year’s annual report included an update to the Black experiences report based on additional interviews.
