Résumé
For French‑speaking minorities outside Quebec, the ’school question’ entailed more than the episodic confrontation involving the status of separate schools and/or French language instruction. In the case of Saskatchewan’s French minority, ’the school question’ encompassed a host of problems associated with providing an adequate level of French language instruction for their children. The recruitment of teachers capable of teaching French was a central concern and to resolve the perennial shortage they created l’Association Interprovinciale in 1917. In addition to being handicapped by its limited financial resources, this organization also had to deal with a government that appeared to be interested only in the English language curriculum. The recruitment of bilingual teachers was but one facet of the activities the French in Saskatchewan had to undertake to enhance the standards and status of French language instruction in schools.
