The "Expression of the Week" challenge invites PSC employees to provide the meaning of an expression in both official languages, rather than a word-for-word translation, each week. This fun, interactive activity allows PSC employees to test their knowledge of their second official language and learn new, sometimes comical, expressions.

The goal of the Linguistic Duality 2023 meme contest was to encourage employees to have a little fun with the ups and downs of learning, maintaining and using their second language at work by submitting memes and then voting for their colleagues' best memes. The Official Languages meme contest was a great opportunity to brighten up our employees' day!

This document brings together the legislative framework (and its hyperlinks!) surrounding ESDC’s official Languages activities in one single place. Furthermore, it demystifies the source, scope and precedence of the laws, policies and directives issued by the various authorities.
 +
 +
Members in our official languages teams use it to have a holistic view of the legislative information they need in order to, for example:
 +
<br>
 +
• make recommendations and give advices
 +
<br>
 +
• develop decks
 +
<br>
 +
• support ministerial accountability
 +
 +
This is an evolving tool, which means it can be tailored to the needs of users (e.g., development, modification of policies and directives). This is why the version presented here is not exhaustive, but rather meets a need focused on Part IV. Nevertheless, it is easily adaptable to illustrate any department’s legislative framework and meet everyone’s needs.
