“The world was ending so we formed clans and battled. They were all students. I died — a knife was thrown at me and stabbed me in the heart.”

- Alicia Hall, third-year commerce

“I was in my bedroom but it was twice as big, with another bed at the end of the hall. My brother was in the bed wearing a banana costume yelling at me because my dictionary was more expensive than his.”

The University of Ottawa will be the managing institution for the Harper administration’s Language Rights Support Program (LRSP), according to an announcement by the Minister of Canadian Heritage, James Moore, on Sept. 9. 

The appointment of a managing institution represents the need for a third party.  The LRSP uses its budget to support court cases in which an individual, group, or organization may challenge someone’s language rights.
