Sadly - you may be all too correct !! !!

Is it just me or is there nothing like this happening in any other country on this planet ??

I don't remember hearing any mention of the French Government starting to use 8 different languages in their state-sponsered information. So that any incoming aliens (legal or otherwise) would have no trouble disappearing --err-- melding into the French countryside.

I remember when Quebec (I think) dropped all use of English and went strickly to French - even went so far as to 'outlaw' any store fronts to use any English in their windows. But, here in the Land of the Free, we are kow-towing to any person (from any nation) to save the possibility of NOT being truly Diverse. . .

. . . more's the pity. . .

He says cubans/mexicans only spoke english until they had sufficient numbers to make americans learn spanish. I'm not bashing cubans or mexicans, but this allegation does concern me. This isn't a one immigrant group issue as far as i'm concerned it's an assimilation issue.


P.S. You can debate the later part of what he asserts. I won't go there

I think a canadian gentleman was threatened with a lawsuit over the dual english/french law.
