Youth
One Charter, Two Languages, A Thousand and One Voices
On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages developed a teaching guide for secondary teachers along with a video where young adults share their thoughts on linguistic duality.
The Magic Mural tells the story of two individuals, one who speaks English and the other speaks French. The moment they meet, a great adventure in the imaginary world of the magic mural begins. This video is geared towards children ages 4 to 7.
