Abstract
Exposes the legal and ideological changes that occurred regarding the Francophone minority educational system before and after 1982 in Canada. The article concludes that providing minorities with strong constitutional guarantees regarding their language's official status allows them to develop their own voice in democracies although these guarantees are subject to ideological power games.
