James Moore: Linguistic Duality

Federal Budget Cuts Dept: Linguistic duality is one area of spending that has survived federal budget cuts, according to CBC. Moore started his cross-Canada tour by meeting with Acadian groups in Dieppe on Tuesday and federal Heritage Minister James Moore has launched a series of country-wide consultations on how to best promote bilingualism when the federal government s five-year plan ends next year. For me, it's about nation-building, it's about respecting our past and present and our bilingual future, said Moore, who is also the minister responsible for official languages.
