The Supreme Court has taken some weird stances lately on accessibility of their jurisprudence — ignoring decisions from the Commissioner of Official Languages is not the only one.

>Until very recently, the OLA was not interpreted as requiring the Supreme Court to translate its old decisions. However, in 2021, in response to a [complaint](https://ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/1834453/langues-officielles-traduction-cour-supreme-plainte-commissaire) filed by lawyer Marie-Andrée Denis-Boileau, the Commissioner of Official Languages, Raymond Théberge, held that the Court was in breach of the OLA by publishing unilingual decisions on its website, on the grounds that they constitute communications with the public by a federal institution.
