Quebec's Language Watchdog Launches Anonymous Visits

Quebecs language watchdog initiates anonymous visits to businesses across the province to study everyday language use, gathering data on French as the main language of service. While businesses support the push to protect French, they highlight challenges in implementing changes. Past studies show positive results, with French offered nine times out of ten without prompting. The project aims to provide a fresh snapshot of French in public life, informing future reports to the government.
