      Non, parler français au Québec c'est parler notre langue qui est d'ailleurs notre seule langue officielle. Il ne nous reste plus que de faire reconnaître notre pays hors du giron fédéraliste.

      @ You will get your country recognized when you actually leave and we put up the borders and wall. If you want French to be the official language of your country then you leave and have no more English in Quebec but you have to stop damaging the rest of Canada to be bilingual because you want to do everything in French. Again its you to leave and have no more English in Quebec.

    When Canada was formed Lord Dorchester in England insisted and succeeded in having two key elements in formation of the country; that is, the protection of the French language and the protection of the religion of the French speaking people in Quebec which was the Roman Catholic faith. As an act of legislation in the British Parliament It is all there in the BNA Act that began the country.
    Another key element in the formation of Canada was that there eleven sovereign elements; that is, the eventual ten provinces each with its Provincial elected parliament plus the Federal Government with its elected parliament. Powers were to be shared or in some cases exclusive to one level of government or the other. The military was Federal, education was provincial for example. The simple fact that the French language has lived in a sea of North American English is a testament to the good will in the country. Doubtless it has been under extreme strain even among those of the highest level of good and trusted will.
    The problem is that in order to conduct business with the world outside Quebec it is necessary to be able to communicate in English. Well educated unilingual French persons working at Bombardier would be severely limited in their careers. Even Airbus in France communicates with its clients in English. In Quebec the leaders have a competency in both of these languages. In effect, the result has been that the size of Canada has sheltered French to this day though many would not admit to this fact.
    In the interwar period immigrants to Canada, read Quebec, were forced to have their children attend school in the English school boards because they were not French while the Jewish immigrants had to send their children to Protestant school boards because they were not Catholic. That was acceptable as long as the French continued having large families. This changed when the population shifted from being agrarian to moving to the cities for jobs which were for the most part English. These changes were significant.
    Today, with the international business format plus the internet, to be successful it is required to be able to speak English. French remains under threat but it also remains under the shield of Canada. If Quebec were to separate, to this writer the French language would be greatly reduced in strength and in use within two generations. The problem today will rest with immigration and with education. Many future immigrants will be coming from conflict zones and those scars will come here with them including in the language sphere.
    We are beginning to see these tensions already.
    Thank you for reading.

    Systematic transgression of the BNAA since its inception in 1867 will prevent Quebec and Canada to get along.
    The royal proclamation of October 7 1763 came less than 8 months after the Treaty of Paris as an effort to discard from it the dispositions regarding french settlers and indigenous.
    This bring up questions regarding the validity of any so called legal action since then.
    Therefore, we live in a parody of a country.
    It has been so for almost 260 years!

      The colonizer - This is the living proof that we are not having a language war but a long-overdue war between New France and New England. The French lost the battle, and thus "control" over Canada in 1759 and they've never forgotten it. This is why Canadians have been forced to stare at Quebec license plates all these years that read -- Je me souviens -- This will never end until Quebec is gone. Let me also say for the record that having Quebecers speak English or be English only is not an incentive for me to want to keep you guys in Canada. It would be better to leave and have no more English in your country of Quebec. Stop voting to remain in Canada and then continually talk about what a hard oppress people you are. We are your enemy and your enemy is letting you go.
