 Previously, Canada had been nominated for French-language films only, since films shot in Canada's other official language (English) were ineligible for consideration for the Foreign Language Film category.Before the rule change, Canada had submitted two films in different languages—the invented-language film "A Bullet in the Head" in 1991 and the Inuktitut language film "" in 2001.Inuktitut, one of the country's aboriginal languages, is not official throughout Canada, but was (and still is) official in Nunavut and the Northwest Territories.
