영문 초록

This study focuses on the language policy in Canada, bilingualism, which means the official use of English and French at Canada’s government agencies. Bilingualism in Canada represents its uniqueness, and the distinctive features of Canada’s bilingualism have made it distinguished from other countries. To find out about Canada’s bilingual features, it is necessary to examine the nature of bilingualism and multilingualism and to study the historical background of bilingualism in Canada. Additionally, it would be meaningful to look into the positive effects on the Canadian society, especially in Quebec, such as economic benefits originating from Canada’s official language policy, bilingualism. Finally, bilingualism in Canada is suggested as a successful model.
