Bonne décision!

The office of the Governor-General needs to be bilingual; the Governor-General doesn’t need to be bilingual.
Québec keeps doing these things and the Laurentian Elite keeps getting surprised by ‘Wexit’ and Western Alienation…
There’s flaws with the ruling and the article specifically notes the Lt-Gov is not specified in the Language Skills Act. It was noted that with the ruling the “hope” is that a number of laws are changed so that the law reflects the judges ruling, a situation that reflects it’s not illegal. Go ahead: ask yourself “what is preventing the PM from appointing another unilingual Lt-Gov?”
Nothing prevents it from happening, it goes against the Constitution and it’s up to the government to do something about it and I’m sure Quebec will fight much harder to see french getting the respect it deserves.
Alright, but don’t be surprised that BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, as well as Newfoundland and Labrador also fight for themselves. Insisting that high-level positions be fluent bilingually disenfranchises unilingual provinces.
Why? We’re able to learn English, aren’t anglo Canadians able to learn French?
That is not even a fair statement. Like it or not English is a much more beneficial language to learn.
Doesn’t keep some English speakers from learning a second language… Anglos are the only people in the world that will be proud to show how little they know by bragging about not learning a second language, or learning one in school and forgetting all about it ASAP!
Just because English is the language of commerce in the west because of American dominance doesn’t mean you have to REFUSE TO LEARN ANYTHING ELSE.
As a Québec independentist, I hope the wexit will work.
Spend taxpayer money to get rid of a person in a purely ceremonial role because they don’t speak the correct official language. Quebec is a joke.
La position de lieutenant gouverneur est la vraie joke. Il est grand temps qu’on se débarrasse de la monarchie dans la démocratie canadienne.
Et je n’apprécie pas franchement que tu viennes dire que notre société est une joke pour essayer de préserver notre culture et protéger notre langue dans notre face dans notre propre communauté.
Franchement, c’est pas gentil du tout.
On appelle ça du racisme, tu as les droit de le dire
Racist
Fuck you. Disagreeing with racist policies is not racist.
Calling a nation a joke sure is!
It’s not racism to ask that the Constitution be respected.
It has nothing to do with her ethnicity or skin color, it has to do with the obligation for the GG to be bilingual, which she’s not. She could be a WASP man from Westmount and the issue would still be the same.
Get out of here retard
