I’m not sure if an executive order really makes that official or not.
Official means the government has to recognize it.

So, when the Federal Government had no official language, did they not have to recognize anything?
That would be a neat little loophole.

at some point I was in Quebec City, where they don't sell hooka tobacco. well, low and behold I found a place that actually had hooka tobacco, so I bought it... went back to the hotel and loaded it up in the hooka.
Come to find out, it didn't burn or taste much like hooka tobacco at all. So I looked at the packaging, and there before my eyes...
"ugarsay anecay agassebay" + some flavorings.

I'm pretty sure we can say it was de facto the official language already, given that citizenship tests are conducted in English

They don’t make those available in other languages?
Yeah, that’s at least semi-official.
