One of the initiatives that I am trying to put into practice in regards to this is providing students through our webpage with quick information as to the post-graduate benefits of studying languages in regards to increasing their employment potential. Does anyone know of a good government or non-government website (preferably Canadian, but from another country would also be good) that contains information regarding this? It seems strange to me that the Government of Canada would not at least have a website on the benefits of bilingualism for employment within Canada as a method of encouraging students to pursue the goal of bilingualism. As of yet, I haven't been able to find one, but I may not be looking in the right places. Would anyone be able to help me with this quest? Thanks so much! I would also be willing to share any information that I find in this regard with any other interested parties. Thanks again!
