The objectives of the 1969 Official Languages Act include:

  1. Mandating English as the sole official language

  2. Promoting bilingualism and biculturalism in Canadian society

  3. Promoting equality of French and English in Canadian society

  4. Restricting the use of French in federal institutions

The correct answer is: Promoting equality of French and English in Canadian society

This is because the 1969 Official Languages Act aimed to promote the equality of French and English in Canadian society, rather than mandating one language as the sole official language. Options A and D are incorrect because they go against this objective by either mandating one language or restricting the use of another. Option B is also incorrect as it only mentions promoting bilingualism and biculturalism, but does not specifically address the equality of languages as stated in the act.
