The Quebec government has been recognizing organizations that have contributed to the promotion of French.
The Office québécois de la langue française presented Regulvar with an award at the Gala des Mérites du français for its remarkable achievements in the promotion and use of French in the workplace, in the business and information technology category.
On this occasion, Marie Montpetit, Minister of Culture and Communications and Minister responsible for the Protection and Promotion of the French Language, stated: “I congratulate the winners selected by the Office québécois de la langue française at the 2018 Gala des Mérites du français. By highlighting achievements that demonstrate the vitality of our language and anchor it in the reality of citizens, this evening illustrates the commitment and passion of a multitude of Quebecers who are proud to protect and promote the French language. Tonight’s event demonstrates that together we can speak positively about the richness of our common language.”
For his part, Robert Vézina, President and CEO of the Office québécois de la langue française, noted: “Every year, I am pleased to see that the francization of the workplace has a special place in the hearts of organizations and businesses in Quebec. Indeed, many of them have taken concrete action and have shown creativity and determination to generalize the use of French in their activities. I salute their work and their contribution to ensuring the vitality and quality of French throughout Quebec. My sincerest congratulations to the individuals and organizations that are finalists and winners of the 2018 Mérites du français!”
