CRTC Discussion Group

Background

The CRTC-OLMC Discussion Group was established in 2006 as a means for implementing section 41 of the Official Languages Act (OLA). Its activities are aimed at helping the CRTC, within the limits of its mandate, to enhance the vitality and support the development of OLMCs and to promote Canada’s linguistic duality.

Terms of Reference

The Discussion Group is a forum for exchange, communication and co-operation where the OLMCs and the CRTC can identify ways and ensure the follow-up required to maximize the communities’ participation in the CRTC’s public processes and take their realities into account in the CRTC’s analysis and discussions leading to decisions, policies and other initiatives in which the CRTC’s role in respect of OLMCs is engaged.

Activities

The discussion group is committed to meeting at least three times a year. These meetings are generally held at the CRTC’s headquarters, with arrangements for participation via conference call or videoconference.
