Mark Carneys neuer Minister sorgte mit seinen Äußerungen zum Französischunterricht in Quebec für Empörung. Ein Problem: Er hatte Recht

OMG… Really that tone deaf Toronto Star?

To everyone who still wonder that Quebec wants… It is easy, Quebec wants to still be a french speaking province in 100 years.

Will Quebec ever separate from Canada? Depends if staying inside Canada helps Quebec remain a french speaking province, because if its does not, then Quebec has nothing to lose from separating.

**Anglophones see everything as a matter of money**

Quebec is not staying inside Canada for financial reasons. Yes, Quebec takes all the Equalization money Ottawa is willing to give it but Quebec sees this as a way to free up money so it can invest in culture and the french language. it is not for the sake of money or to lower taxes on Quebecers (Quebec has the highest taxes of any province in Canada), it is about keeping their language and culture.

Contrary to what Marc Miller thinks, language in Quebec is not a weapon, what it really is is a symbol that act as a lighthouse and a lifeboat in a sea of anglophones.

So stop thinking that language and culture are a „weaponized obstacle“ and understand that they are, instead, an express way towards the hearts of Quebecers.

If you want Quebecers to be more Canadian than you and to be proud of being Canadians, just let them say it in their own language with the instruments of their own culture… That’s it !
