Yes. The Charter of the French Language (Loi 101 / Bill 101) and its OQLF enforcement framework require that product packaging, marketing copy, employment contracts, and consumer-facing materials be available in French — with Quebec French registers and terminology distinct from Hexagonal France. We translate to OQLF Grand dictionnaire terminologique standards, deliver bilingual French-English packs where the federal market requires both languages, and pair the work with OTTIAQ-certified translation when an OQLF inspector or a Tribunal administratif du travail requires it.

Why Day Translations
Calibrated to Quebec's bilingual civil-law working day.
Since 2007 we’ve been the linguistic operations layer for the Office québécois de la langue française (OQLF) Loi 101 compliance desk, Bombardier’s Montreal aerospace and rail divisions, the Pfizer Pointe-Claire and Merck Kirkland pharma corridor, the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) and Université de Montréal, and Quebec City’s provincial-government ministries. Quebec-French translators distinct from Hexagonal France — joual register where required, standard Quebec French for OQLF and government work; Maghrebi Arabic (Algerian, Moroccan, Tunisian) for Quebec’s largest Maghrebi diaspora in Canada; Italian, Portuguese, Greek, and Vietnamese for the Montreal communities; civil-law terminology trained on the Quebec Civil Code (distinct from Canada’s common-law provinces).
That same Quebec operations layer runs on ISO 17100 quality and ISO 27001 security, with HIPAA-aligned protocols and a SOC-2 readiness program for US-listed clients — calibrated to the province’s actual working day. An OQLF Loi 101 product-packaging audit on Tuesday morning, a Bombardier AS9100 supplier qualification pack Wednesday afternoon, and an MUHC clinical-trial IRB consent in Quebec French that Friday all route through the same audit-ready vendor without you switching providers mid-week.
How we work
From file receipt to OQLF- and AS9100-ready filing.

Signed Statement of Accuracy, bilingual Quebec French-English PDF formatted for OQLF audit submission, AS9100-compliant Bombardier supplier pack, and on-site interpreter dispatch when a Quebec court hearing or an MUHC patient escalation demands it.

Why Quebec
Built for Quebec's bilingual civil-law workflows.
When an OQLF audit window collides with a Bombardier AS9100 deadline and an MUHC patient consent needs Maghrebi Arabic the same week — these are the operational realities Quebec demands, and what we set up our work around.

FAQ
Common questions, answered.
Yes. Quebec is a civil-law jurisdiction governed by the Quebec Civil Code — distinct from the common-law systems of Ontario, BC, Alberta, and the other Canadian provinces. Our Quebec legal linguists are trained on civil-law terminology (obligations, prescriptive periods, notarial acts, hypothecs, and the dual French-English civil-code terminology) and deliver OTTIAQ-certified translation accepted by Quebec courts, notaries, and the provincial ministries.
Yes. Bombardier Aviation and Bombardier Transportation supplier qualification packs, AS9100 technical documentation, and rail-industry manuals are routinely supported. Our aerospace linguists work with sponsor-approved Quebec French and English engineering glossaries, with NDAs, role-based file access, and audit logs for the supplier-qualification discipline that AS9100 demands. Multi-language pairs — French, English, German, Italian, Mandarin — for Bombardier's international supplier base.
Yes. The McGill University Health Centre (MUHC), CHUM, and the Pfizer Pointe-Claire / Merck Kirkland / Sanofi Laval pharma corridor drive a steady share of our Quebec clinical volume. Patient-facing IRB consents, clinical-trial protocols, and pharma QA documentation are produced in Quebec French (distinct from Hexagonal), English, and Maghrebi Arabic for the Montreal patient population — under ISO 17100 quality and HIPAA-aligned PHI handling.
Yes. Quebec hosts Canada's largest Maghrebi community, with significant Algerian, Moroccan, and Tunisian populations concentrated in Montreal. Our Maghrebi-Arabic interpreters are dispatched for community health, immigration, court, and education settings — with the regional dialect (Darija, Algerian Arabic, Tunisian Arabic) matched to the speaker. Italian, Portuguese, Greek, Vietnamese, and Spanish coverage rounds out the Montreal multilingual community work.
