<p><span style="font-size:16px"><span style="font-family:Georgia,serif">The Council of the Network of Official Languages Champions is pleased to launch the ''Dare'' newsletter, a new biannual publication intended for Official Languages Champions. The purpose of this newsletter, which consists of brief articles and vignettes, is to inform you about current official languages files, community initiatives and upcoming events. It will also feature interviews with Official Languages Champions who will talk about the innovative activities they have implemented in their organizations, as well as a section on the new resources that have been added to the Official Languages Champions’ Toolbox.<p><p>
<br>
<p><span style="font-size:16px"><span style="font-family:Georgia,serif">Why was the title “Dare” chosen? The Council has been using this slogan for over a decade to encourage employees to take risks and dare use their second official language, as well as to promote a true culture of bilingualism within the federal public service.
