French to get boost from feds, city
The federal government and city hall are both to work on the preservation of French in Montreal. The Bloc has (as noted below) also suggested replacing “Bonjour‑Hi” with “Bonjour‑Ho”…
This op-ed writer in the Gazette (she usually writes for Le Devoir) makes some reasonable points about the Quebec dance of “who’s the minority” that has us in its grip.
