Some commonsense from those who are charged with overseeing French in Quebec: immigrants shouldn't be forced to learn French (CBC). Preserving a language can't be done through coercion and punitive laws. That's just a way to get the language hated and drive people away from Quebec. The PQ's dictatorial stance on this issue is unjustifiable, yet they still try to defend Bill 195 despite the failings in the French teaching system.
Personally I'd love to learn to speak French better, but I haven't got enough opportunities and time. Does this make me a bad student immigrant?
Come on, pequistes! The intelligent people in the province, all other political parties and even the language watchdog are against you. Plus royaliste que le roi, eh?

Do you also think someone immigrating should not have to learn English? Do they not have to have intention to coexist with the countries citizens? marry
