Do we have political party that is willing to focus on more important things?

As long as a large proportion of the population believes their culture is going extinct, anyone who wants to get elected has to focus on it.

I honestly don’t believe that there is a single person in Quebec who really believes that French is in any kind of danger.
This is driven by people who live in places where they can live their whole lives while hardly hearing a word of English. They simply resent hearing a smattering of English during their twice a year visits to Montreal. I know that resentment. I have felt it during my visits to Miami or San Antonio or Southern California. Of course, If I were to suggest an American equivalent to bill 101 I would immediately be condemned as the worst kind of racist. Here somehow, it’s a legitimate cry for freedom by an oppressed majority.

“The inalienable right to work in French must be strengthened by only requiring other languages in limited and justified situations.” So now it’s an attack on all languages. When will people say it’s enough?
