That’s awesome, so now we’re just pulling random numbers out of the hat. 360m today, 8 billion tomorrow. By that logic, though, Anglo Canadians should have disappeared into American culture huh? Since we already speak the same language. Gee, I wonder why that’s never happened.
And just to be clear, the Quebecois are regarded as a nation, french is the official language, the feds are bilingual, and the Quebec govt conduct all operations in French, but somehow they’re also at risk of extinction is it?
Random numbers? Oh yeah, sorry… 5 millions French Canadians, 33.5m non French Canadians, 331.9 Americans… So yeah, you’re right, my numbers were wrong, 5m vs 367.4m… Oops, it didn’t go the way you expected did it?
You’re pretty blind if you don’t realise that Anglo Canadian culture is disappearing, Quebec produces more original content for its TV than the rest of Canada!
American culture is spreading so much that similar language protection laws are getting adopted in European countries now, same for protection against the spread of Russian in eastern Europe. You just don’t care because it doesn’t affect you, the proof being that I’m here and talking to you in English instead of forcing you to speak to me in french, which you should be able to do in our bilingual country.
You think a group of about 7m surrounded by 360m people that speak another language aren’t at risk of seeing their culture disappear?
The Quebecois are also recognized as a separate nation by the federal government, just so you know.
It’s so strange how Anglo Canadians can’t understand their position in this.
