Bill 2: An Act to enable the Parliament of Québec to preserve the principle of parliamentary sovereignty with respect to the Charter of the French language and the Act respecting French, the official and common language of Québec

This bill primarily affects businesses operating in Quebec across all industries — retail, hospitality, construction, professional services, and more — that are already subject to French-language requirements under Quebec's language laws. If you run a business in Quebec, whether as a solo operator or with a team, you are likely already required to conduct signage, internal communications, customer service, and certain documentation in French. This bill reinforces the Quebec government's ability to maintain and enforce those requirements without risk of them being struck down by courts on constitutional grounds, meaning the existing compliance landscape is likely to remain stable or potentially become stricter without the possibility of legal challenge as a relief valve.
