Just pointing out the ridiculousness of the “it’s a foreign language” argument.
There’s no universities in a first Nation language and the official language in Quebec is French. I would be the first one to vote in favor of teaching kids a first Nation language, there’s 11 families of them in Quebec alone so a common language is necessary and in Quebec that’s French.
Members of first Nations are still free to go to school in whatever language they choose and the headline is just bad, at university level everyone can go wherever they want, it’s the English universities that will lose financing if they don’t get 80% of students from other provinces and out of country to reach level 5 French (out of 12 levels to be considered perfectly bilingual), that’s just enough French to be able to understand an everyday conversation.
Do you consider that all other provinces do language discrimination because people can’t go to university there without knowing English?
Foreign?
The official language in Quebec is French.
I think he understands that and is calling the French colonists foreigners to the native first nations peoples…
Yes, French is a foreign language to the Americas.
Then so are first Nation languages since we all come from Africa.
Lol, holy shit dude. You’ve lost the plot.
