520 | |a"French explorers began exploring the land in what is now the Northwest Territories starting in the 1600s and continued to be active in charting the territory and creating fur trade routes into the 18th and 19th centuries. English became the sole official language by law in 1892, and French was not re-established as one of the Northwest Territories’ official languages until 1984. The Association culturelle franco-ténoise was created in 1978, and later became the Fédération franco-ténoise. In 1999, more than half of the Northwest Territories separated to become the new territory of Nunavut. Because the vast majority of the population of Nunavut speak Inuktitut and English, the proportion of French speakers increased following the creation of the new territory"--History, p. [1]. |
