On May 31, 2023 – The Task Force undertook an APPLICATION FOR JUDICIAL REVIEW AND DECLARATORY JUDGMENT to SUPERIOR COURT
​
-
We will challenge Quebec’s attempt to make French supreme over all other rights.
-
The Bergman law firm has been engaged to act as litigation counsel, having regard to the firm’s expertise and solid reputation.
-
Plaintiffs from the general public have come forward and are willing to be in the spotlight for this fight.
-
No other lawsuit has come forward to challenge the law in its entirety from the perspective of English-speaking Quebecers’ individual rights.
-
See below for more on our Strategy and Scope…
On January 17, 2023 – The Task Force undertook an APPLICATION FOR INTERLOCUTORY INJUNCTION.
-
Since Bill 96 encroaches on constitutional and human rights with respect to rights to life, liberty and security; equality; healthcare services; government services; education; employment as well as freedoms of expression and mobility, and freedom from undue state interference, the application has been made for a stay of further implementation.

Our Strategy
Our strategy will be to argue that Quebec exceeds its constitutional authority: Bill 96:
​
-
fundamentally and unilaterally changes the structure of the Canadian federation;
-
creates two classes of Canadian citizens who have different rights and obligations; and
-
overturns the legal status of English in Quebec since the 18th century.
Our Scope
Our scope shall be comprehensive and address the many serious issues not addressed in other Bill 96 litigations in effect. Matters we shall address include, but are not limited to:
-
The supreme collective right to the French identify
-
Private or personal communication
-
Official documentation
-
Post-Secondary education
-
Contracts
-
Commercial and business communications
-
The internal administration of businesses
