A Statistical Story

Information requests

In the period covered by this sixth annual report, the Commissioner’s Office received a total of 38 requests for information on a wide range of topics. The majority of the requests had to do with French-language services, obligations specified in the French Language Services Act, and interpretations of the Act.

Many citizens also requested information about the process of designation under the Act. Others contacted the Commissioner’s Office to obtain statistical data on the Francophone community.

The Commissioner’s Office handled these requests within a reasonable timeframe by either referring the client to the appropriate office or providing the desired information.
