Namely in Quebec, the french speaking province of Canada, they have enacted a law saying that every sign posted has to be in French. How is that for democracy? An english store, restauarant or place of business must have a French sign.

Also true:
My hometown of Ottawa has to have bilingual signs everywhere by law, and that's in Ontario!
Some of the Quebecois parties keep pretending to be so superior and savagely independant, it's like an idiot spoiled kid who's bargaining power is derived from the volume of his WHINING!
I support somebody's ability to have a bilingual sign to read in our nation's capital, but why not reciprocate said signage on the other side of the bridge, where many Anglos live?
Answer: Spoiled ignorance

First of all, I don't believe anything anyone on this site tells me without a link. POST A LINK!
Secondly, it sounds like most of the stupid Americans here that want their signs only in English, and ban anything in Spanish. So I guess people in Quebec are much like most Americans. Stupid.
