Joyce Wright is concerned how the Act is affecting Charlotte County in striving to provide a 50% bilingual workforce in every provincial place of employment.
Wright says this doesn't make sense in Charlotte County where almost 92% of the population is English only.
She says as new positions become available they are posted as bilingual mandatory adding their english-only citizens are being denied jobs simply because they speak english only.
Wright says everyone deserves the right to be served in the language of their choice -- but there are other ways of accomplishing it -- like using technology, instead of denying jobs to English-only people.
Wright has started a petition on the issue, to contact her call 1-506-466-2431 or email at djwright@nbnet.nb.ca
