    No you see the only groups that get to use the government to hurt other groups is the groups I personally like.

    Humans are “meant” to be multilingual. That is norm for us. I still remember the small shock I felt when we were visiting my wife’s homeland for the first time and it turns out there is a language with under 6 million people, spoken only in one small region, that she knew plus the most common language of her country.

    So yeah this is a group being punished for speaking their own language on land that they originally owned, plus anyone who wants to study there and doesn’t speak French. This is freedom? This is a just society? This is education? Schools are supposed to teach not force monolithic thought and punish people for being born “wrong”.

      First Nations have no French requirements and are allowed to get service in English in Quebec if they want to, that’s a protected right.

      Also very very funny that you would go from saying “Humans are meant to be multilingual” to “I can’t believe they have to learn a second language!”

      It’s incredible how easy it is to point out the the Anglo hypocrisy.
