What is it with Quebec and the hijab?

In regards to Quebec and its'.. ever aggressive laws, they just announced Quebec has decided to remove all English programs from it's universities, including English business etc..

They really do make it difficult to like them =/, especially on the whole language issue *aka trying to shove french down the throats of everyone*

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I heard it on the Radio about 6:45am, on 93.9, Wednesday April 18. They also mentioned that the Prof's, whom were outraged about it, were going to try and start a college specifically for English Business, but thats about all I can recall.

true. when '"french language groups" lack attention, they pleade for a reinforcment of laws or a "just" financing of schooling (proportional to the english population %)

I don't have a personal problem with the French language itself, just the way the groups in Quebec enforce it, and how the Canadian government allows it. If Quebec wish's to try and preserve French, thats fine, but the fact that they want the other 85% of the english speaking population to compensate and suffer for them, while giving NOTHING in return *ie language police, this new bit of news about no more english business etc..*, is just stupid. It will be interesting to see what happens when they ruling disappears *i forget what it was called... but it basically gave Quebec the right to pull this stuff off*. Like it or not, French is a dying language, in NA and Europe. As i said before, if you want to preserve it fine, but do not shove it down everyone's throat.

This is kinda getting off topic though, although it does relate and give example to Quebec and it's harsh rules.

How ya doing, buddy?
