Below is the letter TESL Ontario sent on May 4, 2015 to TESL Canada regarding the current Memorandum of Agreement (MOA).
The Centre for Canadian Language Benchmarks (CCLB) is pleased to announce the publication of Canadian Language Benchmarks: ESL for Adult Literacy Learners (ALL). It is a comprehensive document to support program administrators, curriculum developers and teachers in the instruction of English as a Second Language (ESL) to adult learners with limited or no literacy skills — as well as ESL learners who are literate in a non-Roman alphabet. The development of the document was funded by the Government of Manitoba and Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
CCLB is currently seeking project funding to trans-adapt the document into French.

The following books are available free of charge to anyone to download and reproduce:
