Check out the website for Èducaloi [1] [English version [2]], Quèbec’s legal education in plain language institution. The site is very attractive, with lots of eye-catching leads into the usual bodies of law relevant to most citizens. Something so simple as a site map [3] is handled with style, showing again how good design facilitates good understanding. An almost comparable institution in Ontario would be CLEO [4] (Community Legal Education Ontario), which is aimed more at “low-income and disadvantaged people” than Èducaloi seems to be (and which could do with a complete overhaul of its website).
I only wish one could pronounce it e-du-ca-loy, which comes off my tongue at least more pleasingly than the cal-wah ending the real language requires.
