Quebec 's language watchdog has changed its tune on whether it’s acceptable to use the word “go” to cheer on sports teams.
In a new guideline posted in its online dictionary, the Office quebecois de la langue francaise says allez’ is the preferred term.
The flip-flop comes after the office took a hard line with Montreal ’s transit agency, pressing it for months in 2024 to scrub "go" from the electronic signs on city buses.
The office confirmed it had changed its position after The Canadian Press obtained a series of emails through access to information legislation.
The language office has received at least two other complaints about the word “go” in the last five years .
In 2023 , someone complained about the slogan “ Go Habs Go ” appearing on an outdoor billboard.
A similar complaint in 2021 targeted the hashtag #GoHabsGo outside the Bell Centre in Montreal .
