why don't we round up the illegals send them back, lock the borders. Stop giving freebies to illegals . make a program that is workable to get work visas for those that re needed for jobs. Protect our borders stop the invasion
The French were some of the original settlers of Canada, not the case in the USA - we had French but they were concentrated to parts of the south and came later. The reason for the language changing is because of rampant illegal immigration. 25 years ago it didn't exist in these numbers.
Ooooh... do I dare point out that of all the Europeans, the Spaniards got here first? That there are "Mexicans" living in most of the Western States whose families have been living there since before the US even declared independence?

The argument that the french were original settler doesn't fly to well with the english speaking population.
The implementation of billingual laws were made mostly to appease seperatism sentiment.
The french and english are pretty isolated from one another in Canada (it's called the Two Solitudes) and billinguality from coast to coast makes little sense.
I speak two languages. It's not the end of the world and actually, it gives you different perspectives. You can do it
Btw, the Acadian deportations to Louisiana started three decades before the American revolution. The province of Quebec used to stretched far into what is now US territory: http://www.salic-slmc.ca/content_images/234003.gif
By your logic, you should consider the french as founders as well and you should have french as an official language but since there are so few french speaking people that wouldn't make any sense wouldn't it?
It's not an opinion that illegal immigration isn't war. It's a fact. Look up the meaning of war. It says "open armed conflict between states". The only way your opinion would be valid is if you managed to redefine the meaning of war. As of now, you are wrong. And so were you when he answered everyone of your "name me one country..."
The NHS's problem with illegal immegration are well known. Reform has been attempted. I live in Canada and the same issues are constantly brought up. France has similar problems as well. Google is your friend.
As for billingual numbers, it's common knowledge that Canada is billingual. Maybe not the population, but its institutions are required to be and most business have adapted. Btw, when someone calls me at work, they have to press 9 for english.
You probably knew these were true but you are more interested in not losing face so keep typing.
You have now devalued the meaning of the word "war" to where it is effectively meaningless.
Excuse, me for a while, I have to go out in the yard where I am in a war with my crab grass.
I have not devalued anything i posted a defintion for war.
I understand the crab grass wars
