Société des Acadiens v Association of Parents is a Supreme Court of Canada decision on minority language rights under section 19(2) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The majority of the Court held that in civil cases in the New Brunswick courts, the parties have the right to use either French or English in all submissions and pleadings. However, they do not have a right to have the matter heard by a judge who understands them in the language they choose to speak. It is sufficient if there is simultaneous translation. In addition to the majority decision, two other justices of the Court held that the parties did have the right to be heard and understood by the judge in the language of their choice, but on the facts of the case, that standard was met.

| - Société des Acadiens c. Association of Parents est une décision historique de la Cour suprême du Canada sur les droits linguistiques de la minorité en vertu de l'article 19 (2) de la Charte canadienne des droits et libertés. La majorité de la Cour a statué que dans les affaires civiles devant les tribunaux du Nouveau-Brunswick, les parties ont le droit d'utiliser le français ou l'anglais dans toutes les observations et plaidoiries. Cependant, elles n'ont pas le droit de faire entendre l'affaire par un juge qui les comprend dans la langue qu'ils choisissent de parler. Il suffit qu'il y ait une traduction simultanée. En plus de la décision majoritaire, deux autres juges de la Cour ont statué que les parties avaient le droit d'être entendues et comprises par le juge dans la langue de leur choix, mais d'après les faits de la cause, cette norme était respectée.
