New Brunswick's official languages commissioner received dozens of complaints from people who could not receive service in French on the province’s eVisitNB health platform.

Shirley MacLean said users who tried using the site in French received messages such as, “Unfortunately I am not able to understand your request well enough to provide treatment.” The legislature committee on official languages is scheduled to meet next week to discuss her findings.
