Introducing 'Between the Lines: The Capital Language Report'
A New Report for National Capital Region's Language Professionals
In a changing industry, staying current is everything.
If you’re an editor, translator, or writer in Canada today, you know the ground is shifting beneath our feet. AI tools are evolving at a dizzying pace. Client expectations are changing. The very business of language work is being redefined.
Keeping up can feel like a full-time job on its own. We’re often so deep in our projects—wrestling with a tricky translation, polishing a final manuscript, or crafting the perfect sentence—that it’s hard to find the time to look up and see the bigger picture.
That’s why we’re launching Between the Lines: The Capital Language Report.
It’s the essential briefing you’ve been missing, a curated report built by language professionals, for language professionals, arriving in your inbox every two weeks.
What is Between the Lines?
Think of us as your trusted colleague who spends their time sorting through the noise to bring you what truly matters. We are Editors Ottawa-Gatineau new publication focused on the news, insights, and developments essential for language professionals in Ottawa-Gatineau, and the broader Canadian community.
