- Canada Supreme Court finds Crown representatives must be bilingual in New Brunswick
The Supreme Court of Canada ruled that New Brunswick's Lieutenant Governor must be bilingual to uphold the province's linguistic rights. The court found that appointing an anglophone to the role violates the equality of French and English, as guaranteed in New Brunswick's constitution. This decision overturns a previous court ruling that individual bilingualism was not required.
