<b><u>Save the date! 2021 Best Practices Forum in Official Languages</u></b><br>
 
<br>
 
The Council of the Network of Official Languages Champions, the Department of Canadian Heritage and the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat are pleased to invite you to the Best Practices Forum on Official Languages, which will take place on <b>March 3, 2021.</b><br>
 
<br>
 
The Forum will be open to all Public Service employees and this year’s theme will be diversity and inclusion.<br>
 
<br>
 
On the agenda are two virtual talks organized in partnership with the Canada School of Public Service:<br>
 
<br>
 
*<b>10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.</b>: A discussion on the tools developed to create a linguistically safe and inclusive workplace.
 
*<b>1:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.</b>: A discussion on leadership in the promotion of English and French.
 
<br>
 
In parallel, various online activities will be organized throughout the week, including the presentation of various kiosks and videos presenting best practices. More details to follow in early 2021.<br>
 
<br>
 
We invite you to contribute to this event in your own way:<br>
 
*Have you developed an innovative initiative that could be showcased?
 
*Did you produce a video on the theme of official languages that could be featured?
 
*Would you like to reserve a virtual kiosk to present your best practices that could be useful to other organizations?
 
<br>
 
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, please fill out <b>[[Media: 2021Forum-Form.docx | this form]]</b> and email it to {{em|OLCEInformationCELO@tbs-sct.gc.ca}} before January 11, 2021.

<b><u>Did you know?</b></u><br>
 
<br>
 
There are 2 main types of French spoken in Canada:  Laurentian French and Acadian French. <br>
 
<br>
 
Canadian French contributed to the creation of a unique language: Michif. The Métis people developed this language, which combines features from French and Indigenous languages, primarily Cree. Michif is unusual in that the nouns are generally derived from French and the verbs are derived, for the most part, from Cree.<br>
