Language Matters examines whether this remains the case.The contributors present case studies or life histories of diverse associations, from business organizations to groups concerned with social justice. They examine key turning points in the given association's history and explore how its mandate, leadership, relationship to the federal and provincial governments, and shifting options in the political arena shaped its response to linguistic diversity. Language Matters provides a deeper understanding of the language dynamic in Canada and offers solutions to groups and governments trying to manage difference. 606 $aLanguage policy$zCanada 606 $aBilingualism$zCanada 606 $aAssociations, institutions, etc$zCanada 607 $aCanada$xLanguages$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aLanguage policy 615 0$aBilingualism 615 0$aAssociations, institutions, etc. 676 $a306.44/971 701 $aCameron$b David$f1941-$01616575 701 $aSimeon$b Richard$0866230 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811315203321 996 $aLanguage matters$94028349 997 $aUNINA
