A group fighting Bill 96 in court is planning a 10-kilometre “rolling procession” through Côte-des-Neiges—Notre-Dame-de-Grâce on Sunday to protest the Legault government’s language policies.
The Task Force on Linguistic Policy says the event — with protesters on foot and bikes and in cars — is one of a series of rallies against the law.
“The Legault government’s promise of a (new) ’50-point plan’ to reduce the so-called decline in French on the backs of anglophones in addition to Bill 96 is proof of plans for a major offensive against our community,” Task Force president Andrew Caddell said in a statement.
