Quebec Told Not To Discriminate

From Yahoo News Canada:
"Top court strikes down Quebec language law for schools; province vows to replace it"

I think it is about time that the Canadian Supreme Court took a firm stand against Quebec. It seems no other Canadian Federal Government Agency wants to "rock the boat" and do what is right. Quebec has been allowed to refuse English-language schools in their Province to many people even though English and French are the official languages of Canada.

I think English-speakers in Quebec Province should be allowed to receive their education in English (as long as they also study French.) I also think that French-speakers in all the other Provinces should be allowed to receive their education in French (as long as they also study English.) It should not matter what language you speak - English or French - or what Province you live in - Quebec or the rest of Canada - as long as you go to a government-funded school you should be allowed to study in your native language as well as the other official language as a foreign language.

Canada is constantly "walking on egg shells" whenever anything mentions Quebec because the Federal Government is afraid of having Quebec become independent and split the country in half. Quebec needs to realize that they would be worse off without the rest of Canada. The only hub for the Province is Montreal and while it is a very large city it couldn't substain the whole Province as a separate country.

I have family from Quebec and firmly believe that both French and English should be used throughout Canada - if they are going to have two official languages than this is the result - from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific. Neither the English-speakers, the French-speakers nor anyone else should be allowed to discriminate against the other.
