Welcome

The institutional activities of the Department of Justice relating to international Francophonie;

The activities of the Department of Justice relating to Canadian Francophonie;

The implementation of Part VII of the Official Languages Act;

The promotion of bilingualism and bijuralism both within the Department and among its partners.

International Francophonie — This component includes two elements, i.e. a reinforcement of legal ties with France, and departmental action in international legal cooperation policies in the Francophonie. In the latter case, the Associate Deputy Minister is the Department's sectional correspondent to the Minister for Foreign Affairs and International Trade.

Justice in Official Languages — This component also includes two elements, i.e. access to justice in both official languages and coordination of the implementation of the government's (and therefore the Department's) commitment to the development and growth of official language minority communities (section 41, Part VII of the Official Languages Act).

Legal Dualism — This consists in promoting within the Canadian legal community the existence of two legal systems in Canada, i.e civil law and common law.
