New Brunswick’s official languages commissioner has announced she will be retiring in July.
Katherine d’Entremont has spent 37 years in the public service, including the last five as commissioner.
In her letter of resignation, d’Entremont says it’s time for her to take on other pursuits.
D’Entremont says in a statement that protecting and promoting New Brunswickers’ language rights has been one of the most rewarding aspects of her career.
“I wish to express my appreciation to all New Brunswickers who call on the services of the Office,” says d’Entremont. “Their complaints allow us to highlight problems with the administration of the Official Languages Act and make recommendations aimed at ensuring public services of equal quality in both official languages.”
We would like to thank language commissioner, Katherine d’Entremont, for her many years of service to our province. We wish her all the best in her retirement.
