French-Language Services Annual Report Released

Released on January 31, 2014

The Government of Saskatchewan released its 2012-13 annual report today on French-language services.

“Our government will continue fostering partnerships that ensure Saskatchewan’s francophone communities are vibrant and contributing to the growth of our great province,” Provincial Secretary Wayne Elhard said.  “I also want to thank all partners and stakeholders who have made a contribution to the achievements found in this annual report.”

The report highlights a 15 per cent increase in translations by the provincial government with more than 755,754 words translated in 2012-13.  The increase can be attributed partly to the number of documents translated during the reporting period for the Ministry of Health, Saskatchewan Arts Board and the Saskatchewan Tourism Education Council.

Other highlights include the events marking the centennial of the Assemblee communautaire fransaskoise (ACF), which is Saskatchewan’s umbrella francophone association, the continued promotion of the Fransaskois flag as a provincial emblem, along with a 16 per cent increase in traffic to the Bonjour! website reaching 71,672 visits in 2012-13.

The Government of Saskatchewan’s Francophone Affairs Branch manages the French-language Services Centre, which can be found on the Bonjour! website at www.bonjour.gov.sk.ca.  The Provincial Secretary’s duties include French-language services and engagement with the francophone community in Saskatchewan.

The full report can be found online at: www.ops.gov.sk.ca/FrancophoneAffairs/ServicesPolicy.
