From the time it opened in 1971 until it closed in 1985, the Collège Militaire Royal de Saint-Jean was considered as a French language unit and it didn’t bear an English name. When it reopened in 2007, it was considered as a bilingual unit, and that is the reason why its title is translated in English as well. 3, record 2, English, - Royal%20Military%20College%20Saint%2DJean

Il y a lieu de se rappeler que de 1971 à 1985, le Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean a été affilié à l'Université de Sherbrooke, qui décernait les diplômes obtenus à Saint-Jean par les élèves officiers. Cette affiliation a permis au Collège militaire de se développer et d'obtenir en 1985, du gouvernement du Québec, une charte d'établissement d'enseignement universitaire. 1, record 2, French, - Coll%C3%A8ge%20militaire%20royal%20de%20Saint%2DJean
