Quebec's French language law Bill 96 comes into effect 

Bilingual isnt allowed. French only.

You've already done it, it's just that you are too 🥴 to study history

I agree, incentives bring things much further than penalties.

I agree

Why did you come to quebec? There are 9 other provinces to choose from to live, where they dont descriminate and even treat their french citizens better than quebec treats its english citizens.

Alright, now try the same in the U.S. where there isn't an official language federally and depending on the state English is or isn't official but irrelevant of that English is expected out of everyone. What do you say to that?

Hi, if everyone speaks with Quebec accent, they will be happy ❤

@@ronchasr6656 ... it wasn't planned. I was transferred by my organization and our plant is in Quebec. However, we like it here too that's why i spend much time to learn French.

@@jeanbolduc5818 ... yes i do not have enough opportunities to speak.

Well put! 👍 Bill 96 does exactly as you stated it, and the powers given towards enforcing it are a definite imposition on people's rights and freedoms. As an example, 'Bill 96 gives the province’s “language police,” the Office Québécois de la langue francaise (OQLF), the right of search and seizure at business premises without a warrant.' So where has the world seen such extremisms before?

Dude Montreal is litteraly already gone what are you talking about

It makes people want to learn and speak English.

​@c.m.redhouse7667 The CAQ can't stand the fact that there are one million Anglophones in Quebec. As long as Québec isn't a pure French Speaking Society they will always say French is threatened.

They're going to make people despise the language because it's going to be perceived as a political weapon. In Spain something similar is happening in Catalonia. All Catalonians, including the Spanish-speaking ones, were super proud of being bilingual and keeping their regional language alive, but since their nationalist government started to pass language laws that forced Catalan over Spanish a good chunk of their population is starting to perceive the reality of what nationalists want: no bilinguism. So now they don't feel Catalan as their language even though they're bilingual. And the results speak for themselves: after all their measures to impose Catalan for decades, Spanish keeps getting stronger, so...

and did they ?

Provinces do what provinces do, Federal stuff is available by standard in several languages, and in written translation upon request. It seems complicated and stuff, but literacy is already a measured and a norm in all the provinces anyway. Local public schools likely offer Basic Life Skills and Adult Literacy classes.

@@jacksonvidalvlog I live in New Brunswick, where people have lost their jobs because of some francophone complaining the immediate person who spoke to them wasn't bilingual (despite offering to get them a French speaking person instead).

@@tmatthd4467 free societies have rules. If people elect to move to a French speaking province then they should learn French. I think Quebec is too lenient: they should make it even more difficult to receive education from English instruction schools.

@@MarkEliasGrantright. Everyone says this about English when immigrants relocate to English speaking countries, but when it comes to French….

@@noluvakuma3063 Exactly. Simple. Learn French or do not move to a French speaking society. Quebec should outlaw all English instruction other than foreign language classes. Quebec should prioritize Francophone speaking immigrants.

@@MarkEliasGrant Yeah. French in Louisiana was lost this same way… laws getting put into place that keep people from learning their native language. But Louisiana wasn’t able to flip and turn those laws around, so they lost their Francophone Language. I’d hate to see this happen with Quebec

It's tax payers money from other provinces being used....

Where does the federal money come from? Taxes and duties of all kinds from taxpayers and corporations of Canadian provinces and territories. Quebec's contribution was $51.546 billion in 2022, according to data from the Ministry of Finance led by Chrystia Freeland. This money is redistributed across Canadian provinces and territories via equalization, a federal program ensuring an equivalent standard of living for all Canadians wherever they are.

And so does everything done in English speaking provinces being paid by French speaking Quebecois’ tax payers money..

We give 750 millions of dollars to the federal government... every year. We don't owe as much as you like to believe.

Hope quebec becomes sovereign and kick out all liberals crap from it.

As I'm ethnically French, I'd have laughed and told that person about my grandfather who refused to allow his kids to learn or speak québécois. He chose to be Anglo, rather than to speak that.....

Federal, Provincial... get the nuance, dipshit?

Oh so it's ok to not give services in french even if we ask and now you're mad that we play your game😂?

Yeah because we have enough of not having french services. So why are you mad that we act like you? You act like if you were not in the wrong.

" pay a lower individual and corporate tax" indeed but pay thru the nose for real estated unless you live in a small place like Cornwall.

And when you try practicing your French on the streets...you get ridicule. The only good thing French is French kissing.

I dunno. The US seems to be doing that a lot recently

It's fascism

Only dumb people think that this law will help French Quebecer. The truth is it's just another move by the Quebec government to make sure that french people don't have to do the effort of learning English which make all those loser unable to get out of the province. It's all about keeping the sheeps in line. It has nothing to do with the language.

It’s one of the ugliest languages I’ve ever encountered. Horrid.

Quebec as a province is equivalent to an agnsty teenager who threatens to run away every week but wants you to pay for their apartment.

@@Teh_Random_Canadian Again with this irrevelent claim....

Again the same lie based on idiocy again and again. French is one unique language. French over the world understand each other. There are few differences like a Scottish with an Australian or a South Africa and an American. The accent is different but the words are almost the same.

We would be very happy to welcome you my friend 😉

Only if you are white

Even if you learn French you will be discriminated based on your accent or lack of perfect fluency. I go to McGill and I have friends born in other countries but were raised in Montreal since they were 8-10 and completed their schooling in French. And in interviews they are told by the French Canadians, “Your French is not fluent.”.

I'm from Québec, and I wouldn't recommend it unless you have very thick skin and are alright with constantly being asked which country you're from (no, not province... country), and told that you must not be from here. You'll never really feel welcome or wanted. But it's a shame because it's truly rich in history and a beautiful place.

@@KRL1999Arich history of what? Of french farmers trying to farm a few acres of snow, then being lumberjacks in the winter time? There was a GOOD reason why over a million french-canadiens left Quebec for other parts of North america! In Quebecs defence though, the British were absolute batards (they still are, btw LOL).

Good you moved. You don’t want to make the effort to integrate to the local society. You take the best decision for you and for Quebec.

Its the same way Canadian tax payers are punished for carbon taxes and bs taxes while refugees and illegals make most money. Why discriminate people based on origin? French is our national language and hence whosoever wants to deal with it should learn it.

It's exactly the same in Quebec. We have English class in school from elementary school to the end of high school. Yet, the class are so bad that in the end 75% of the students can't hold a conversation in English.

​@@cybermad64 yet most global media (Hollywood) and global jobs are ENGLISH speaking.

In quebec i took french from grade 3 to grade 11. After i finished high school i still couldnt speak french.

We speak french in Quebec ... there is only one french language just like english but many accents ... excuses ... anglophones have always had excuses not learning french as we have to be bilingual as a french Canadian

I won't even visit. And I would advise any tourists who aren't francophones to go elsewhere. Also, I advise any tourists who *are* francophones, but who don't hate their anglophone neighbours, not to go there either.

Good

​@@tailkinker1972 You're a bit dramatic John

There's quota for everything, why are you opposed only to this one? In a French-speaking community, don't you think it should be prioritized?

@@serhanaksoyler I am just sharing my opinion on the issues being discussed here. 😀 And yes, I am opposed to any quota that causes discrimination and that removes a person's freedom of choice. As to, 'should it be prioritized?' If, as the census I found show, '...French remains the first official language spoken by more than 90 per cent of Quebecers.Aug 22, 2022' And, '80% speak it as a first language.' With numbers like these I don't see the language as disappearing or being in any danger. Side note, I just read that further to Bill 96 going into effect and that, 'Premier Legault wants all Quebec immigrants to be French speakers by 2026. Yet his government has already waived that requirement in the province’s quest to become a North American hub of electric-vehicle (EV) technology.'

I’m moving to Montreal from Ontario. I’m sick of the mass immigration and no affordable housing. I was born in Quebec but moved to Ontario when I was 5. When I get there I can take 10 weeks of French classes put on by the government. I already speak basic French from French immersion in my elementary school. I am very excited tbh

They don't even speak French in Quebec......

@@canucktruckerbear True, mainly all immigrant speak English. Go in Montreal, you can't even be served in French now.

@CanuckTrucker Bear. False! I live in Montreal (born and raised). In certain neighbourhoods of Montreal people mostly speak English but in most areas of the city it’s all French. As for the rest of Quebec, it’s all French. Walk into a store and you will be greeted in French, road signs are in French, store names are in French, hospitals, police, etc all greet you in French. So (CanuckTrucker Bear), your statement is incorrect.

@@lon8486 That one flew right over your head.

@@canucktruckerbear Very true they don't speak the French of France. 😀 They speak Quebec French or Quebecois which is a variant of Canadian French. Canadian French also includes Acadian and Michif ( Metis language) variants. In France they speak European French/Parisian French/Metropolitan French.

No one cares about english canada

Manitoba already tried that and it worked for nearly a century. But, they are still mostly anglophone while required to have a bilingual legislature and judicial system, similar to Quebec. You see Quebec doesn't want what happened in Manitoba to happen to it, the moment it gained an anglophone majority all francophone rights were thrown out the window! Also, remember New Brunswick must be fully bilingual!

​@@OpinionesDeJACCsOpinionsYet the municipality of Belle-Baie recently declared themselves a French community and said they will provide English courtesy translations when absolutely necessary. How is that legal in a bilingual province?

@@KRL1999 I don't know yet!

@@KRL1999 As it turns out official bilingualism in NB only applies if the settlement has at least 20% official language minority (Anglophones or Francophones).

7 provinces! Manitoba and New Brunswick both are constitutionally bound to have some bilingual services, look up *section 23 of the Manitoba Act, 1870* and *section 16.1 of the Constitution Act, 1982.* Also, while you're at it you'll notice that Quebec is also bound similarly as Manitoba is but instead via *section 133 of the Constitution Act, 1867.*

@@OpinionesDeJACCsOpinions Ok.. cool. So does English have something similar in Quebec?

@@Maxmulham Yes, article 23 of the Constitution Act, 1982 protects the educational rights of both official language minorities in all provinces! The whole “historical Anglo” thing comes from that and few other things such as Section 133 of the Constitution Act, 1867 among other parts. Which is why Quebec, as much as some may wish, can't totally remove English from the province. It's nowhere near the bilingual policy of NB, but English does have some protections contrary to popular believe. The current government is pushing the letter of the law as much as they can in relation to those constitutional guarantees! I'm sure eventually some courts will whittle it down, but it won't be the same as before.

French isn't in danger, indigenous languages are. But good luck finding Quebecois who bother learning an indigenous language.

@@Wilson-xd4zq True, but what about the anglophones? Is French in danger? Probably not. Is it in decline? Most certainly! If most provinces had a bilingual policy like New Brunswick, then I don't think it would be declining as much as all statistics have shown. Are indigenous languages of Canada in danger? *Yes!* They need, at minimum, something like Ontario's French Language Services Act for all indigenous languages for them to have a snowballs chance. But, none have enacted anything like that.

Isn't that what you are doing right now...............😆😆😆😆

I see it as it is here. Have lived herev78 yrs and its a social matter

Your personal experience is irrelevant. As a society in general we are very welcoming. The older english people living here just want it back like in the old days, pre Révolution tranquille, when they got to make the rules and impose it on the French majority. Despite that we are still welcoming to all who want to come, integrate and live here. As would be expected anywhere else. When in Rome...

@@CharlesRobitaille514 If you want to talk history, then the native Canadians who were here prior even to the Vikings might have a few things to say about losing a language, culture, religion, freedoms and their land. But that aside, the census numbers show a marked increase in speaking of the French language in Quebec over the past few years. These census numbers disprove the propaganda that the language is in danger of disappearing and must be protected. Check them out. 😀 But that aside, have you even read Bill 96? Well here are a few tidbits I found, 'Bill 96 gives the provincial government sweeping powers to dictate language use in most realms of Quebec society. It requires all Quebec companies to do business in French. Businesses with more than 25 employees can be required to launch a “francization program” and continually report to the government on how French is protected in their workplaces. Bill 96 gives the province’s “language police,” the Office Québécois de la langue francaise (OQLF), the right of search and seizure at business premises without a warrant. And the bill requires employers to explain to the government why they find it necessary to hire someone who speaks a language other than French.' Side note, I read yesterday that your Premier has already begun to add waivers to the Bill in support of some economic prospects, ie Big companies. So IMHO, it seems that the language protection requirement can be thrown to the wayside by the current provincial government, if the money is right? Go figure.

Most paranoid people in Canada.

Exactly, no point in them anyway

🙄

And start them in Spanish

LOL Maybe they can develop a vaxxine that will make one speak french & not english? ( i misspelled intentionally because of Ewetubes language police)

From the outside looking in, this looks like someone trying way too hard to sustain a doomed relationship. Languages and other things come and go. Trying too hard to save something can easily speed up the decline. I think The province would do much better by offering resources and incentives for people to learn French. Incentive is always much more effective than punishment. It makes me wonder, do they really want to keep their language or do they want to enjoy exclusivity?

@@timothyjackson4653 "Languages come and go" Bro, French has existed since the year 900 approximately. Languages don't just "come and go"

It seems like we could have nearly totally effective (for most typical business use) voice translation tools within the next decade. (we already have some of this, but its sooner enough, getting into the conversational level) And when there's an issue, Quebec has the most bilingual people in Canada so a confusion can be easily ironed out. So this is a culture war, not as much of a logistical challenge.

don't send your kids to an english daycare. Why would you ban anglophones from having english daycares? You can't see how the government is taking away anglophones ability to support themselves?

@Marc-André Désilets You may not want to send your kids to an english daycare service because you want to limit your children's knowledge of languages to only Quebecois, and that is your perogative. However, the english daycare service can and will continue to be open for business in certain 'bilingual' towns. I just read that, ' Under Quebec's new language law, Bill 96, municipalities could lose the right to communicate with residents in English if less than 50 per cent of the population has English as a mother tongue.' The important part follows, 'However, the law allows cities already recognized as bilingual to preserve their status - even if their anglophone population drops below 50 per cent - by passing a resolution within 120 days of receiving notice from the province.' And, as only one example, ' ..., a town 40 kilometres east of Montreal, elected to keep its status despite having only 7.2 per cent of its citizens with English as a mother tongue. Scott Pearce, who represents mayors of bilingual towns at Quebec's federation of municipalities, said he wasn't at all surprised by the unanimous decision to remain bilingual. "It wasn't controversial in any of the places that I've spoken to," he said in a phone interview.' 😀

​@mallafourmi8642 Some perspective would probably help you out here. Don't ignore the fact that most anglophones learn French organically. The ages when children are in daycare are so delicate, it plays a huge role in their ability to speak and understand a language as adults. I know a lot of francophones who sent their kids to school in English, and vice versa. The kids ended up needing speech therapy more often than not, and can't speak either language properly. They say things like "full of things," "devlopment," etc. So if there's a need for English daycare... why not?

Oh please continu your victimization. How not giving english services in a french province is "hating"?

@@yannislaurin5438 It is not giving the same consideration to English speaking Canadians as French speaking Canadians! All of Canada is bilingual except Quebec!

There’s no such thing a weird accent. It’s just a different accent.

We live in Quebec, if everyone speaks with Quebec accent, it would be the best thing. Some Quebecers don’t understand French accent, French accent has already evolved. “son” and “sang” are almost pronounced in the same way, but here in Quebec, “sang” is pronounced with an open mouth. ❤

I find it hard to learn Quebec French , there is not enough content available on youtube to which I use to learn a language because I don't like being in a classroom but still want to learn french I know the French spoken in France is different and there is more content for France French then Quebec French, but they want ppl to speak Quebec French and how can I learn that when most apps are for metropolitan French tv shows and movies in French are mostly France French, so they want you to learn it and speak it how? when hardly nothing is available . they are making things more difficult then need be .

@@northernsamba7388 IMHO It is the Québécois's current provincial government creating this dissention with a Bill that is stated necessary to protect the language, yet recent concensus reports state that speaking the french language in Québéc has risen over the past few years.

Personally, I am very proud to be able to speak fluently, write and understand both Québécois French, Canadian French and Canadian English. I worked in the province of Quebec and never had any problems being served in French or English and attended meetings that were either bilingual, with interpreters or in French or English. Kudos to you for learning other languages. I myself am brushing up on my Latin, still learning Spanish and am working on Gaelic. 😀

@@abalister6661 Merci de ton commentaire qui est très sensé, ce qui est assez rare sur ce mur de stupidité. I agree with you that Canadian bilingualism is a complete failure, it was never asked by Quebec, it was Trudeau's idea to shut down the independence mouvement in Quebec by pretending they could live in French anywhere in Canada ! What a complete pipe dream it was. Trudeau's idea failed completely. I totally understand English Canada's frustration with bilingualism since its absolutely no use to them, even if they send their kids to french immersion, no one ever gets to use French in real life outside Quebec so all that is learned is lost over time. Trudeau also impose multiculturalism to attack the Quebec Nation in trying to make French people one of 150 different Canadian communities instead of one of the two founding Nations (nowadays over 3 if we include the First Nations) like Quebec always viewed itself. Trudeau then imposed its constitution of 1982 and its gouvernement of the juges to counter the elected members of the Quebec parliament and this constitution was imposed against Quebec's will as we have never signed on the Canadian constitution. Can you imagine a country building itself against the will of the First Nations and against the will of it's biggest minority and founding community the French. Canada is a mess, never has been a true country like Quebec has always been and this is what pises off a big part of English Canada, they dont have a Nation and never will have one compared to the strong Nationhood sentiment of Quebecers. Things will get worst for Canda with the 100 million population project by the end of the century, this country will absolutely collapse into oblivion.

What a refreshing comment! But unfortunately, you speak for yourself in saying you have nothing against the English. A lot of Québecois do, and it's sad.

@@cybermad64 I quite know why they speak french but they are denying English speaking their right to speak in the other "official" language.

@@cybermad64 Abandonne! A lire ces commentaires , je constate que rien ne changera J'ai passé 30 ans dans RCAF a me battre . .cause perdue!

Nope gouvernement is saying: how to make sure to keep them poor, dumb and no option of going anywhere else. We are the most taxed in the world with the worst services. Anyone with a brain is GTFO.

You always hated us😂 How about you stop copping that Québec want to protect his language?

​@@yannislaurin5438 because the rest of Canada is forced to learn french in school when NOBODY uses it. Manufacturers are required to print everything in french and in English on all instructions. How about we drop all of that and just make the rest of the provinces english and quebec french

@@F4mis I do actually, speaking a language that isn't needed tho is a waste of time. English is used globally. If you want to be a pilot you HAVE to learn English. Quebec french is also very different from France french.

@@Teh_Random_Canadian How do you know it's not "needed"? It's a bad excuse to not learn the other official language.

Or more strategic .....don't want you in .What a clever way to minimize their share of the planned Liberal mass immigration many who inevitably seem to require long term government support and services . Canada's major countries from which immigrants come historically are from India and Pakistan. How many parle French ??

@@tracyallen7020 What is the largest immigrant group in Quebec? 'In Quebec, over half (54.5%) of recent immigrants had only French as their FOLS in 2021... recent immigrants to Quebec with both English and French as their FOLS was 14.7% in 2021, and just over one in four (25.5%) had only English as their FOLS.Oct 26, 2022' FOLS means First Official Language Spoken. 😀

The same can be said with the GTA. How many algerians and Haitians does it have over there? They probably feel unwanted

It really and truly is!

Hahahaha, good old Liberal believes... cmon...

😂😂😂

Apprenez le français quand vous allez au Québec, le Québec est francophone et le restera. Les québécois savent tous parlé anglais, les québécois n'ont aucun soucis pour s'adapter et travailler dans le reste de l'Amérique du nord. Mais les anglo canadiens eux ne savent pas parlé français et ne veulent pas s'adapter au québécois. Les québécois apprennent l anglais mais les canadiens anglo-saxons eux n apprennent pas le français. Respecter le Québec francophone. Moi je suis Belge francophone et je supporte les québécois. Je soutiens le Québec francophone.
