Download the Language Portal of Canada icon content begins

Would you like easy access to a wealth of high-quality language resources available on the Language Portal of Canada? Nothing could be simpler! There are two ways to do it:

• Create a shortcut to the Portal on your desktop
• Download the Portal icon to your Web site

How to create a shortcut to the Portal on your desktop

1. Make your current screen small enough so that you can see it and part of your desktop at the same time.
   
   
2. Place your cursor over the hyperlink you want below, based on your language preference. Right click your mouse (left click if you are left-handed), and drag the hyperlink directly to your desktop.
   
   Note that the Language Portal of Canada and the Portail linguistique du Canada have content that is similar but not identical, because language problems are different in English and French.
   • For a shortcut to the page where you can choose your language, click Language Portal of Canada / Portail linguistique du Canada
   • For a shortcut to the English home page, click Language Portal of Canada
   • For a shortcut to the French home page, click Portail linguistique du Canada

How to download the Portal icon to your Web site
