According to the Supreme Court, Section 23 of the [Canadian] Charter [of Rights and Freedom] was designed to correct on a national scale the progressive erosion of minority official language groups and to give effect to the concept of the equal partnership of the two official language groups in the context of education. The Supreme Court also ruled that where numbers warrant, Section 23 of the Canadian Charter [of Rights and Freedoms] gives parents of the linguistic minority a right to manage and control educational institutions attended by their children.
