    I am in Ontario, but i was in french immersion schooling. meaning french from day 1 grade 1, until grade 12. But you wouldn't have any english until grade 4. Then in grade 7 they would switch doing math in french to english, since the french immersion high school's did not have math+science in French. Yeah. wacky. But it's awesome on a resume. You have a significantly easier time getting a job anywhere in any field pretty much if you are bilingual.

      Yeah, that is right - France did used to be the dominent language of France. But, bear in mind, France ceded the land to Britain as a part of a decloration officiated in the 19th century I'm aware. From my knowledge, the british colonialists, although directly controlled from Britain, still allowed French law and the language of the French to flourish.

    You could have just used Google to find out how to pronounce words like Ville, Jacques, Brunswick, etc. If I were making a video with Russian words, I would look up how to pronounce them, not just say whatever. Ontario was never called "Canada West", it was Upper Canada. Québec was Lower Canada (based on the upper and lower mouths of the St. Lawrence river)
