Apply inclusive French writing rules without retyping ministry contact blocks

Ontario public servants drafting bilingual communications repeat author name, ministry, and contact information on terminology requests and publication approval forms while applying inclusive French writing standards. This guide is an example of storing them once in hivi.

Official form and source

Start from the official source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:

• Service page: Ontario government terminology (ONTERM) — ontario.ca
• Form (Central Forms Repository): Summary of the French inclusive writing recommendations — on00482

What this form is about

Form on00482 summarizes French inclusive writing recommendations — pair it with ONTERM and ministry style guides on ontario.ca.

Before you start: what to gather

• Draft French text requiring inclusive language review.
• Ministry or program name in English and French.
