About Us

Our Strategic Goals

The Office of Acadian Affairs has evolved over the years, and is guided by strategic direction. Our strategic goals are as follows:

  • Create a sustainable framework within government including regulations, policies and guidelines to support the French-language Services Act.
  • Increase the amount of direct services offered to government in order to help it provide services in French to the Acadian and francophone community; these include advice, translation services, and communications support.
  • Insure that the needs of the Acadian and francophone community are considered in government initiatives, programs, policies, and services.
  • Increase government's capacity to provide services in French.
