Okwuobi v Lester B Pearson School Board, 2005 SCC 16, is a leading Supreme Court of Canada decision on minority language rights. The Court held that parents in Quebec who are denied access to English schools for their children must apply through the Administrative Tribunal of Quebec (ATQ), which holds exclusive jurisdiction to hear appeals regarding minority language rights, and cannot bypass the tribunal by applying to the courts. In examining the intent of the Quebec legislation, the Court found that the tribunal also had the power to hear constitutional questions.

- Okwuobi c. Commission scolaire Lester-B.-Pearson est un arrêt de principe de la Cour suprême du Canada rendu en 2005 sur les droits des minorités linguistiques. La Cour a jugé que les parents du Québec qui se voient refuser l'accès aux écoles anglaises pour leurs enfants doivent s'adresser au Tribunal administratif du Québec (TAQ), qui détient la compétence exclusive pour entendre les appels concernant les droits linguistiques de la minorité, et ne peuvent contourner le tribunal administratif en s'adressant au tribunaux judiciaires. En examinant l'intention de la loi québécoise, la Cour a conclu que le tribunal avait également le pouvoir d'entendre des questions constitutionnelles. (fr)
