C-11 - Charter of the French language
Section 35.1
Disposition versions
35.1. The holder of a permit issued in accordance with section 35 shall, as long as the permit is held, maintain knowledge of the official language that is appropriate to the practice of the profession.
The permit holder may not, in carrying on his professional activities, refuse to render a prestation for the sole reason that he is asked to use the official language in performing the prestation. An exception to this rule applies where the permit holder’s professional activities are, by nature, based on the use of a language other than French; in such a case, the holder of a permit issued in accordance with section 35 may not, however, refuse to render a prestation for the sole reason that he is asked to use the official language in his professional relationship with the person calling on his services.
