Legault will pay us to vote CAQ
François Legault is promising us an unspecified payout if the CAQ is re‑elected this year. Bread and circuses next, I suppose.
Legault is also planning to monitor statistics on use of French at home. I wish this was the Beaverton, but it’s not.

If Levesque were still alive, he’d be ecstatic that the knowledge of French in Quebec had increased to its current level of 94.5% (it was 89% in 1977).
Monitoring the use of French in the bedroom is the only way to say that use of the French language is in decline.
Coming up with hypotheticals that French won’t be spoken at home in Quebec in 50 years is delusional.

That’s not even secretly a bribe, that’s openly a bribe.
I used to speak more French at home when I lived alone, and would make phone calls in French.
