During the fiscal year beginning in 2023, the Standardization Committee is focusing on standardizing the legal terminology pertaining to Indigenous Peoples.
During the standardization process, consultations are planned with a User Committee in order to help confirm that the French equivalents recommended by the Standardization Committee for the English terms that were subject to review are valid.
The role of the User Committee is to provide comments regarding the French equivalents recommended by the Standardization Committee. For example, if a member of the User Committee does not agree with the choice of a French equivalent, they may express their reservations and explain why such an equivalent is problematic. These comments contribute to the advancement of the work of the Standardization Committee by encouraging its members to think things through in greater depth.
