They are your employer. They pay you do do whatever the fuck they like. You do it, or you don't get paid. That's how I feel about this.

While i understand this statement to some extent it is a bit.. how to say.. it makes you come off as an asshole?

On topic:
Personally i do find it silly that they are allowed to be such nazis about it but.. i do also understand where they are coming from as it is an integral part of their culture just like for me coming from a welsh backround i did enjoy going to wales and seeing the language still alive and kicking (if only ~1 million people speak the language)

Can someone explain to me why the fuck they do have language restrictions? That sounds more than ridicolous, even more if you think that it is the same nation. lololol Everyday you learn something new. Why dont the french guys learn english? Pretty simple, and if you look into the future they have to do it anyways.

From my ignorant point of view, the french people should stop imposing language restrcitions so people will adpot faster to english and then get rid of the french language here. After all it is one nation....

There are a few hundred years of history you need to catch up with. Until you do, I would hold off on the advice.

Probably because French IS an official language? I think its silly to have these types of restrictions on one of the 2 official languages of the country but its stupid to say "get rid of French". Its a part of their culture so of course they would want to keep it.

The only French parts of Quebec culture that I have ever noted are the language and the attitude about the language.

C'mon, the French only owned the area for 150 years, and it's been British since. Odds are the majority of residents are as much French as I am a Native American. (And I have a great grandfather that was a tribal chief.)

Really, I enjoy Ontario and westward. Quebec... meh. Haven't been to Newfoundland, although that was the entry point of both European parts of my family.

Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

Yeah... Probably best to just end this now. Make a new thread if this turns into anything other thana headline for a day.
