Official minority-language education policy - Toronto : IPAC, Spring 2003
This article argues that Section 23 of theCharter, litigation and judicial decisions have played key roles in expanding and homogenizing official minority-language education (OMLE) policy outside Quebec. The importance of looking beyond Charter jurisprudence to the broader policy impact of litigation and judicial decisions is revealed. The Supreme Court's Mahé decisionwas particularly important in putting OMLE policy on the agenda and for providing Francophone groups with important legal, political and symbolic resources that were effectively exploited to generate policy change
