Quebec Community Groups Network
Building Bridges for Quebec's English-Speaking Community
For over 30 years, the Quebec Community Groups Network (TALQ) has been dedicated to passionately defending the interests of Quebec's English-speaking community. Through dialogue, advocacy for rights, and deep community connections, TALQ works to ensure a stronger and more inclusive Quebec where every voice counts.
Advocacy and Rights Protection
TALQ amplifies the voice of 1.3 million English-speaking Quebecers, believing strongly in the power of conversation to build bridges and create meaningful change. The organization actively stands up for rights, strengthens communities, and ensures the concerns of the English-speaking population are heard at every level.
Community Engagement Initiatives
TALQ organizes public assemblies, surveys, and conferences to promote dialogue between anglophone and francophone communities. By transforming everyday concerns into collective action, TALQ encourages community participation, fostering unity and mutual understanding.
Justice, Policy, and Government Relations
The organization takes a clear stance on important issues such as Bill 96, linguistic rights, and equal access to services, always advocating to ensure English-speaking Quebecers are not left behind. TALQ engages regularly with policymakers, presenting work at public commissions and ensuring that the community’s voice is represented when major political decisions are made.
Events and Activities
Educational webinars and legal analyses, such as the recent review of Quebec's constitutional Bill 1, are at the heart of TALQ’s activities. Expert panels help partners and community members better understand critical legislative implications, keeping the community well-informed.
Community Development and Priorities
TALQ actively collaborates with dozens of partner groups, working hand-in-hand to achieve goals that no single organization could accomplish alone. Supported by Canadian Heritage, TALQ is committed to maintaining the vitality of Quebec’s English-speaking community, setting development priorities for 2025-2026, and celebrating the community’s unwavering commitment to its identity, rights, and prosperity.
