On December 2, 2025, the Government of Prince Edward Island tabled its 2024–2025 annual report on the French Language Services Act, highlighting the province’s ongoing efforts to expand and strengthen French-language services.

The report shows a notable increase in bilingual capacity within the public service, with the number of bilingual employees rising from 387 to 425, and 162 serving in designated bilingual positions.

This growth reflects a broader provincial commitment to improving service accessibility for Acadian and Francophone residents.

The government also introduced a new “Bonjour Day” initiative to enhance French-language skills among frontline staff.

Additionally, three new designated French-language services were added in education and culture, bringing the total to 43.

The province is considering declaring August as Acadian Heritage Month and is exploring a cooperation agreement with Québec to support cultural and linguistic collaboration.
