As for Québec, whether it becomes a country or remains a province, peopley will have to speak French in every day dealings, business or otherwise, no matter how many languages they speak.....am I dreaming?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06095245480718178506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-45329237096941460.post-30924284416823777562017-09-13T10:59:28.689-07:002017-09-13T10:59:28.689-07:00I cannot thank you enough!!

I just found it and from now on it will become my reference when it comes to syntheses Quebec in Canada. CBC should take great notes how well written is your blog. Of course Quebec bashing comfort their audience and it's one of their best seller. But Mansbridge and his doggy newfie joke Rex Murphy should take notes how journalism should be done. After all it will be a better use of our tax money.

So of course the funding will go way beyond what the mother tongue or home language statistics are for English in Quebec.Tony Kondakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18228233599653784361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-45329237096941460.post-25993522953490812452017-08-20T22:38:57.977-07:002017-08-20T22:38:57.977-07:00The authors write:

This is an obvious reference to the New Brunswick School Act. Well, Quebec MPs were going to support a parliamentary motion for the veto but the Church elite in Quebec city along with Messrs. Georges Etienne Cartier and Langevin convinced the government not to.<br /><br />There were similar stories for the Manitoba school crisis in 1898 as well.<br /><br />So the whole story is that English Canada violated the rights of the French provincial minorities with the tacit support, approval, and enabling by Quebec francophones.Tony Kondakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18228233599653784361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-45329237096941460.post-80270401071481191412017-08-17T04:53:19.432-07:002017-08-17T04:53:19.432-07:00C'est vraiment déprimant.C'est vraiment déprimant.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13685424089262947627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-45329237096941460.post-64304260030587451522017-08-16T19:26:37.078-07:002017-08-16T19:26:37.078-07:00I was going to make a joke about how shells aren&#...I was going to make a joke about how shells aren't only for snails, but I am writing this in the wrong language.badbromancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16132277196694283373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-45329237096941460.post-54294890960400583792017-08-16T19:14:07.208-07:002017-08-16T19:14:07.208-07:00Thank you...
