The report suggested the government give Quebec a policy in which the general objective would be to make French the common public language of all Quebecers, that is to say, a language which, being known to everyone, could be used as a Lingua Franca in communicational contact between francophones and non-francophones. To achieve this goal, the commission recommended the Quebec government make French the sole official language of Quebec and declare French and English the national languages of Quebec. The report also included some 31 measures devised to re-inforce the position of the French language in the workplace. Following the presentation of this report, the National Assembly Of Quebec , then under a Liberal government, passed the Official Language Act . The Act was ultimately supplanted by the 1977 Charter Of The French Language . SEE ALSO
