Real talk though, the bilingual requirement of politicians in Canada is dumb. The whole point of a democracy is for anyone, regardless of class, to become a politician and have their say. The vast majority of Canadians (Anglo and Franco) never use the second language at all. Because Francophones are a minority in Canada (less than 20% IIRC), they are the ones to learn English. This essentially breeds an elite class of Quebecois who rule over the rest of us.

its not like you actually need to be bilingual to be in the government anyways. You'll see them with their earpieces on listening to the translations in parliament. So why prevent unilingual from joining the government? Another globalist control measure?

Yeah that's pretty stupid, and honestly I don't understand why French is also the official national language when it is very regional

And yeah I agree a bilingual requirement of such sorts is utterly useless. I understand though not agree if that would be the case for Quebec, but nkt nationwide

However I don't see how this is a globalist measure of any sorts 😕

Damn, that PJW yellow vest video is the best he's done in a while - well worth sharing

"Makes Terry Gilliam's 'Brazil' look like a Toyota factory floor."

Iirc it was part of the agreement to french territories joining canada peacefully.

guess who we have to thank for that and which history we weren't taught in school...

one "good" thing about it is that it kept Qc happy about staying in canada. had they all have to learn english just to compete in the political sphere (and Quebs are intelectuals for the most part) - they would have lost their cultural identity.. if you go to Qc, especially northern Qc, they don't really speak english...
on the other hand, right next door, the Acadiens have lost their distinct language and most of their culture because they've been shoved bilingualism is our strenght in school. - yeah, speaking 2 languages comfortably is a strenght, but at the cost of your culture, heritage and all the skills that come from the old ways.. like building yourself a house and growing a garden.

just get some credit and go to the cities, son... there's plenty of opportunities for smart bilinguals
