I live in the sudbury area, which is very mixed between french and english, although nearly anyone who can speak French is also fluent enough in english. I get mail and flyers with both languages. I hear conversations that switch between the two languages mid sentence. The very fabric of this comminity exists with these languages intermixing and I find it sad that Quebec wants to kill that kind of diversity. I completely respect that Quebec wants to protect its French identify, but this seems a little extreme with a 50% or higher multilanguage barrier. Even the very french towns nearby won’t judge you for being english and will still welcome you to their town/home/business, we should be encouraging and celebrating our diversity, it is what built the nation we live in.
