  1. They are still French minority communities.
  2. Firstly what you mean by "equal language rights for Canadians" in reality applies ONLY to Francophones....so say it rather than imply equal language rights are applicable to ALL Canadians when in fact all other Canadians be damned...right. Be honest and admit that what you favour is language rights backed by corrupt, oppressive language policies that make English speaking Canadians subservient linguistic slaves to minority Francophones. You mean Canada was a great country before the arrival of Trudeau coupled with Quebec Nazism.
  3. To bad you have never heard of 'Francophone minority communities' with some being larger than the other. The reality is English speaking Canadians are the majority anywhere in Canada period. You are a regular Dr.Francostein, trying to manufacture majorities out of minorities.
  4. That is a false claim as we never did have a national referendum on any of Trudeau's linguistic policies relating to our constitution. This is shameful. It must be fact. Posters have used the word bigot against other posters who were in disagreement relating to official languages and other imposed linguistic policies by Trudeau.
  5. No matter how you slice it, Quebec and the French language is a confirmed minority ANYWHERE in Canada.
  6. Provincial highways in Ontario that are located in French-designated areas require bilingual signs but are subject to municiple regulations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilingual_sign
  7. "Discrimination is not a figment of the imagination of English speaking people in Canada." Excerpt taken from a presentation to the standing joint committee of the Senate and of the House of Commons on official languages, Ottawa, presented by the Alliance for the Preservation of English in Canada (APEC), March 28, 1990. Then you would agree with this statement:
  8. That depends on whatever the claim may be. So spit it out CANADIEN and quote the full statement relating to what I said, that the whole of the country's population should be taken into account. That is a false assertion. You can suspect what you want. You know very well that you are suppose to quote what was actually said in its entirety, which is something you rarely ever do in an effort to purposely confuse the issue.
  9. This conspiracy has resulted with English speaking Canadians reduced to the level of SECOND CLASS CITIZENS and are slaves to French Quebec via healthy federal subsidies and transfer payments along with corrupt language legislation both federal and (Quebec)provincial.
  10. I will say it again. OUTSIDE of QUEBEC, French speaking Canadians represent only 3% of Canada's population. No one is talking about the whole of Canada.
  11. Absolutely. Quotes from French Quebec politicians:
  12. The definition I posted adequately defines the expansion of Trudeau's revolution (just society)from within the bowels of the federal government against the majority English speaking population of Canada.
  13. Outside of Quebec Francophones represent 3% of Canada's population. This small percentage does not qualify the French language to be of any significance. Even in Quebec the term 'French is the majority' is a misnomer and does not even apply since Quebec is only a province and NOT a separate country. When calculating majority and minority language numbers they must include numbers from the WHOLE of Canada and not from any single province.
  14. Word Web: Nazism: Noun-A form of socialism featuring racism and expansionism and obedience to a strong leader. I am using the word correctly. Not relating to language. Quebec insisted on being 'masters of their own house' relating to culture, language and running there own affairs. So this in itself equalizes languages in Quebec vs. English Canada. There is no need for any imposed 'racist language policy.
  15. WRONG: Excerpt from the THE CANADA HEALTH AND SOCIAL TRANSFER: OPERATION AND POSSIBLE REPERCUSSIONS ON THE HEALTH CARE SECTOR "Federal and provincial responsibilities for health care, post-secondary education and public assistance are quite different. Under Canada’s Constitution, the three areas of health care, education and social programs are primarily matters of provincial jurisdiction, and the provinces are responsible for their delivery. By invoking its constitutional “spending power,” the federal government has intervened in those areas, leading to the making of federal transfer payments to the provinces. The transfers make it possible to redress the constitutional imbalance between provincial taxing powers, which are more limited than those of the federal government, and provincial responsibilities, which are often onerous. Federal transfers also improve fairness between the provinces in terms of the level of services offered to the public. The federal government has long participated in the financing of provincial programs for health care, post-secondary education and public assistance. " Excerpt from Wikipedia Section Twenty-three of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms "Section Twenty-three of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is the section of the Charter that constitutionally guarantees minority language <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minority_language> educational <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education_in_Canada> rights to French <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_language>-speaking communities outside Quebec <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebec>, and, to a lesser extent, English <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_language>-speaking minorities in Quebec. The section may be particularly notable, in that some scholars believe that section 23 "was the only part of the Charter with which Pierre Trudeau <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Trudeau> was truly concerned."[1] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_Twenty-three_of_the_Canadian_Charter_of_Rights_and_Freedoms> Trudeau was the prime minister <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_minister_of_Canada> who fought for the inclusion of the Charter of Rights in the Constitution of Canada <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_of_Canada> in 1982." This proves relating to education in Canada from the time of the Charter and federal transfer payments, education is also a federal responsibility. And there are other restrictions compared to what English Canada offers relating to access to schools. And I don't think English Canada is trying to destroy the English language like they are in Quebec. In all fairness Quebec should no longer even be part of confederation relating to Quebec not signing the Constitution Act of 1982 nor not even signing the amendment section which makes the Charter in the minds of many Canadians illegal and unconstitutional. You mean much less imposed than the federal Nazi type language policies.
  16. Ha-ha-ha. I suppose I would be disillusioned also if I knew that the English language was only a regional language in Canada and confined to a single province.
  17. Equality is only a word. It is the Nazi language policy that is racist. And I wonder why? Hint: See above. Provincial governments had that right. Education WAS a provincial right.
  18. You mean like Quebec still does with English speaking immigrants.
  19. Certainly it matters. Who really wants to contribute to a topic nobody views.
  20. What can I say. I gave you the dictionary definition of 'race' and the U.N. definition of racism and you still bounce back with nothing but personal opinion. Not entirely. And if numbers warrant there is nothing stopping the application of federal bilingualism in a federal department anywhere in the country. So lets get this straight. The Royal Commission of Inquiry on Bilingualism and Biculturalism’s recommendations had nothing to do with the creation of the 'Official Languages Policy'? I suggest you stop playing semantics. I already previously told you. Just stop and think Quebec's French Charter which outlaws an English education to just about everyone. Core English in Quebec,as a second language, does not make anyone fluently bilingual.
  21. Why? You are the one that made the statement there are two national languages in Canada. Besides any idiot would know with the English language/culture being the de facto language/culture in Canada, would automatically know that it is the national language/culture of Canada.
  22. Racial discrimination exist, commie. Provincial governments are compelled to provide services courtesy of the French Language Services Act or Official Languages. Core English in Quebec does not make anyone fluently bilingual and is not designed to accomplish this. The ones lucky enough to influenced by demographics/work/friends and participate in various activities in English Canada do.
  23. Does Quebec still bribe Quebecers with money to have Quebec babies?
  24. And to think Quebec still does that to this day. And France is so innocent: In 1666, after capturing the Island of St. Christopher's in the West Indies, the French deported its English population of about 2500 and confiscated their property. France struck a commemorative medal to mark the glorious event. In 1689, Frontenac drew up plans to capture Albany and New York, with specific instructions from France that Catholics who took an oath of allegiance could remain while all others -- men women and children -- were to be dispersed to New England, Pennsylvania and as many other locations as necessary to prevent their reuniting and attempting to set out on expeditions to recover what had been taken from them. And following the 1685 Revocation of the Edict of Nantes (in France), a mass exodus of persecuted French Protestants to other European countries took place. From historical records their numbers were on the order of 400,000 or some 40 times the number Acadians expelled by the British.
  25. Why don't you post where it officially says that?
