Pro-French rules and regulations are nothing new in Quebec, a province of about 8.7 million that’s home to the largest concentration of French-speaking people in the U.S or Canada. The country’s unique constitution, drafted in the 1860s, gives provinces a lot of power over language and cultural policy, and Quebec’s leading politicians haven’t been afraid to use it.

The language law will leave customers with the burden of asking for translations, though there is an exception for business that’s done outside of the province. Those powers are what worry Jack McDonald, president of PreciKam Inc., a manufacturer of high precision plastic parts in Baie-D’Urfe, a Montreal suburb.

“The law is not clear,” said Dominique Babin, a partner at BCF Business Law, a Montreal law firm. “It would not make sense to require all companies to serve all their clients in French all the time.”
