Government & Public Sector Translation
NATIONS has a long and established history of providing premier translation services to private companies, but we also understand - and cater to - the unique needs of government agencies and other public sector entities.
Throughout our 30+ year history, NATIONS has worked with numerous federal departments, Crown corporations, provincial associations, and municipalities. This experience has given our translation team unparalleled insight into the distinct challenges and objectives of translation in the public sector.
We understand that public sector teams need language service providers who are efficient, transparent, dedicated, and capable - delivering projects on time and on budget without compromising on quality.
At NATIONS, we offer translations in over 100 languages, 24/7 client support, industry-leading turnaround times, seamless workflows with in-built quality controls, and specialized subject matter experts. Whatever your content, audience, or medium, we can help your organization elevate its communications to share information across diverse audiences.
Translation and real-time interpretation
We provide translation in the official Canadian languages of French and English, as well as 34 Indigenous languages and over 90 other languages.
What makes us different is our attention to detail, context, and cultural nuances. Our translators go beyond word-for-word translations to ensure your communications accurately mirror the intent and message of the source language.
We also offer real-time interpretation services, providing On-Demand Over-The-Phone Interpretation for call centres and other public-facing services, as well as interpretation for live events such as conferences and seminars.
Our government and public sector services include:
Specialized knowledge of all levels of federal, provincial and municipal governments
Translation for technical & regulatory documents
Real-time translation & interpreting for government events
Translation into any Indigenous language from most other languages
Indigenous language translation services
As Canada continues to pursue Indigenous reconciliation and outreach, public sector agencies are increasingly aware of the need to uplift Indigenous voices. We can help you reach these historically-marginalized communities with translations that speak to them in their own language.
NATIONS is Canada’s largest Indigenous-owned language service provider and is proud to represent our First Nations communities and support language preservation efforts. We offer translations in 34 Indigenous languages including:
Algonquin (Ontario and Quebec dialects)
Assiniboine (Stoney/Nakota/Alberta)
Cree (Plains, Swampy, Woodland)
Inuktitut (North Baffin, South Baffin, and Labrador dialects)
Mohawk/Iroquois Languages (Quebec and Ontario Dialects)
Ojibwe (Eastern, Western, Northern, & Minnesota/Wisconsin dialects)
Our focus on empowering First Nations communities makes us the perfect partner to fulfill both your translation needs and your ESG goals.
Legal translations, financial translations & more - translators with specialized expertise
Government and public sector clients often require expertise across a number of niches and disciplines. Our team is equipped to handle materials of all kinds, from complex regulatory documents to confidential financial statements.
NATIONS has assembled a handpicked team of talent so we can offer our clients not just top shelf translations but also specialist knowledge in other areas, such as finance or law. Each project is matched with the translator and project manager best suited to the required skill set so clients receive exceptional support and service.
Over the years, NATIONS has worked with clients from all levels of government, handling large volumes of government data and material. We’re highly experienced at handling these sensitively and adhering to all security protocols. That’s one of the many reasons we’re a trusted vendor for our longstanding government clients - some of whom are involved in high-level defence projects requiring stringent security and quality controls.
