Findings on Rationale and Relevance French Sample Clauses

Findings on Rationale and Relevance French. Language is a priority for the Francophone population and a key to maintaining their cultural identity. The French community expresses this priority through the level of engagement and commitment in the various activities undertaken across the NWT. The Fédération Franco-TéNOise (FFT) distributes the community-based funding among participating organizations on a project basis. Activities are designed to promote French culture and language through cultural, educational and/ or sports events. Many programs are family oriented. The community-based funding provided through the Agreement is a small portion of the total funding received. Still, there is an expressed need for the ongoing funding of activities through the Agreement. Many feel that the Agreement does not appear to be appropriately funded as the level of services in French provided by the GNWT, particularly in communities outside Yellowknife is considered insufficient. The French community has indicated their support of the Agreement ‘intent’ but not its implementation. The Agreement remains relevant, for this reason. It is recognized that the Agreement is a good source of funding and without the Agreement there would likely be very few French services in the NWT. The GNWT provides translation and interpreter services through a number of government departments but struggle to provide more than the basic service. To complement the commitment of the GNWT to the provision of official language services, a number of suggestions were made including: a greater emphasis on projects that allow an exchange of issues between all language communities, the re-establishment of the ‘consultative committee’, clarifying the responsibilities of persons receiving the bilingual bonus, strengthening the role of the departmental language coordinators and an improvement to the overall awareness of official language requirements for all GNWT employees.
