In Quebec, there is a new law that forces immigrants to speak french. If the authorities find out you don't speak french at home, they give you a fine. After you 3 fines, you go to jail. Discuss.

1. Probably BS, but too tired to verify 2. So what? Immigrants should indeed speak French and use it at home if they have children. 3. It's impossible for the State to know which language you use at home.

In France, there is a quota on the amount of songs that are allowed to be sung in English. >French radio stations struggle to fulfil French-language quotas Music industry representatives in France have gathered at the offices of the country’s broadcast watchdog the CSA to air concerns over difficult-to-fill quotas on French-language titles. French radio stations are struggling to fulfil a quota that demands 40% of songs played be French-language titles, half of which are required to come from new artists, with the number of French pop songs being produced dwindling. The law was introduced in 1994 in an attempt to stem an invasion of English-language songs. Increasingly French singers have switched to singing in English in recent years due to ease of export and the languages perceived better-suitability for pop music – between 2003 and now the number of French-language album releases dropped from 718 to 158. Head of Fun and RTL2 radio stations Jérôme Fouqueray, who is leading the call for system change, said “one cannot continue to ignore the new scene which is not French-speaking”. Fouqueray pointed to the success English-speaking French singers are having abroad while remaining relatively unknown at home, telling Le Parisien newspaper “the setup must evolve”. NRJ radio group’s Maryam Salehi asked: “How can you ask radio broadcasters to respect quotas if producers dry up the source?” SNEP, the body set up to protect the interests of the French record industry, dismissed such claims however, with general manager David El Sayegh saying: “Granted, there are fewer French productions than ten years ago due to the record crisis. But last year we proposed 720 French-speaking titles to the radio, that's a 28 per cent rise on 2009.” “However, music FM stations only use 15 singles to meet 90 per cent of their quota. They're terrified of new material.”

Ils se levent le matin dans leur suburbs a Laval ou Longueuil, ils prennent leur FORD, ils arrivent, ils boient leur TIM HORTONS, et ensuite bossent. Ils sont politiquement correct comme les autres anglos (on ne dit pas noir mais minorité visible blabla). Ensuite ils vont manger du KRAFT DINNERS et appellent le 9/11 en se disant "tiens elle est vachement cute cette image" et en racontant des "joke" Bref, soutient aux juifs, aux immigrants, aux francais, et aux anglos de Westmount qui doivent vivre avec les quebecois

Im a Quebecois. Im not sure if everyone here understands our international situation, but we are located at the North East of North America (Think Boston, NYC, Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, etcetera). We are literally surrounded by english speakers everywhere. The Evil Empire itself is about 50 miles south of Montreal, our biggest city. If we are to keep our language and culture forever (which is what we are planning to do), we have to be a bit rash on these kind of things. Otherwise, well, we would already be speaking english in the province.

NOT TRUE, the law is that immigrants have to send their childrens to a french school, anglophones can go to english ones. They teach english from ( If i remember correctly, i'm 20 now ) 2nd*? grade to second year in CEGEP (equivalent of 1st year of college) and it is MANDATORY ( can't have a degree without it ) And for the Anglos vs Frenchies thing... Please don't put al of us ( Frenchies) in the same boat, altough it is true that like 80% of our population (Quebec) are complete retards, it is true for all the places around the world...

If you don't speak English in Ontario, we try to get by and communicate usually. There's no anger and hate the other direction that I have EVER seen. (Granted, in my experience, it has been the same way in Quebec, with people trying to accomodate my lack of french skill) It's just a drunken bar video basically. I don't know why it's reposted. People angry after drinking late at night. *shrug*

>>7013238 I don't think I've ever met someone who believed that the Quebecois should learn/speak English in Quebec. Maybe your experience has been different. Much of it you must understand comes from the disproportionate difficulty of learning eachothers' languages. Our teachers and french language education programs are generally very very shitty, and there's very little French media outside Quebec. On the contrary, the sheer size of the english speaking world means there's videogames with full voice acting in english, movies, etc that get popular in Quebec. I also get the impression that English language education is much better in Quebec than French language education is in Ontario.

>>7013134 Most quebecois from Montreal and Québec city can speak english, but a lot of people who come from outside the large metropolitan areas can't. This make the standardized english tests hilariously easy for people who grew up in Montreal.

>>7013252 yea but you get my point: it's ok if you're not fluent in french, as long as you're genuinely trying we'll make an effort as well. But the Asian guy isn't a unique case. Many people come not giving a single fuck about french, and just expect everybody to speak english to them. And sure, maybe it's different in Ontario, but there are two points: 1) I'm guessing that nearly all franco-ontarians speak english, and don't ever demand that people speak french to them 2) it's a different context altogether given that french in Ontario doesn't threaten english, whereas in Quebec if we just let people come here and choose which language we must speak then our culture won't survive very long. Although I agree the vid is rather stupid and doesn't showcase much more than drunken idiots.

>>7013361 I'm not talking about Franco-Ontarians specifically. Yes, they generally all speak english. I meant Francophones. Quebecois, Haitians, whatever word I wish I had that just meant "France French", etc. And no, they don't demand to be spoken french to. They just have no other option. It's French or zero communication outside body language. >>7013361 I don't think you're as threatened as you believe you are. You still represent a large portion of Canada by population, and I assume you're going to teach your children french. And most people I know of that move to Quebec learn the language. I know many Anglo Canadians who have moved to Quebec and are bilingual now. (mostly in the Ottawa/Gatineau region)

>>7013406 Metropolitan Montreal: 3,824,221 Metropolitan Quebec: 765,706 Metropolitan Gatineau: 314,501 That's over half with just three cities, which means we're not counting the still decent number of rural Quebecois who speak limited English they learn in school and from media. But the point is, the cities that Anglos are going to be traveling to are these three, mainly.

This may be completely off but by my estimates I'd say ~40% of franco-montrealers are bilingual, whereas maybe 20% (perhaps even less) of francos outside Montreal are bilingual

>>7013634 I'm a student at McGill right now and I don't have that attitude at all. Most people here don't. There's a handful of assholes, but they're no worse than the handful of asshole who expect everyone in Quebec to speak French all the time, including students and tourists. Most of us just stick to the English areas of Montreal.

>>7013634 Well, Montreal has a long history of being a bilingual city though, doesn't it? Scottish settlers speaking English even from the earliest days? I personally love Montreal because of this. It's a place where, as an Anglo with limited French skills, I can both be safe in my ability to communicate any time I need to, but also speak French. Ps. it's 10/10 fun for me to go about my business in Quebec without needing to speak English. I feel so proud of myself when the clerks etc don't speak English to me. Except that one time I was buying an umbrella and accidentally responded to them asking in French if I found everything alright, and saying "yup, thanks.".... They never spoke another word of french to me :(

Best law ever. I hope all nation in the world will enforce this law to all immigrant. If they want to live in our country, they must learn our language.

6 hours later 7013912 Anonymous
>>7013834 It's not surprising tbh. Even if they're fluent in english, if you expect them to speak english simply expecting them to reply in english, it's a sign of disrespect towards the culture of Quebec, and as there's also the whole issue of cultural survival that plays an important role. However, if you speak to them in french, it shows that you actually respect the culture of the place and that if you happen upon to stumble someone who doesn't speak english then you won't be forcing them to learn english just to accomodate you (which isn't a good if you want a thriving culture). Hence, you respect the culture, and in return they respect you by doing all they can to accomodate you, including speaking english. Now this doesn't mean that it's the end of the world if someone asks me (or most other Montrealers) something directly in english without actually inquiring on whether I even speak english, but overall it's still something I prefer not seing.

Actually, many Anglo-Montréaler, many that know Fench, that expect people to speak English. For exemple, when I was working in a Dunkin Donut in Laval their was one women who always speak Enlgish to my, because "that would help me learn the language" LOL. It's easy to say that you don't get mad to French in Ontario when the're actually fucking rare and not arrogant like our Anglo.

One thing I've always noticed about French people on the internet is that they always comment on English speaking websites in French. No one ever responds to them, because we're all speaking English, but sometimes you'll get a couple of them talking to each other in French. They try to take over the conversation and end up only talking to each other.
