The scared isolationist racist movement is not widespread in Quebec.
Welcome to immigrants. We need them badly or else this country will turn into Russian (size-wise) Haiti (poverty wise). Without immigration, we are teh fail.
lol
I'm not a racist seriously. I'm just saying the facts. It is a fact that there are more and more immigrants in Quebec and a lot of them don't care about French. Some of them don't even speak French OR English !
I'm just saying if you come live in Quebec, either speak French or English.
We need immigrants in Quebec because we are not enough people, but this is also the fact for the whole Canada. Vancouver has a lot of asian people.
Seriously, don't call me a racist men. I'm just being realistic by saying the facts.

you calculate the growth rate of a country/province/wtv by adding natural growth (births - deaths) with international migration (in - out) and provincial migration (in - out)
since forever the provincial migration rate is negative, both natural growth + international migration rates are positives, they say that the the population growth rate of Quebec will start to be negative in 2040, but if you take out the immigrants it's going to be in 2026
so before you bash immigrants or whatever you should know about what you are talking about neo hacker
around 60% of the immigrants are accepted for economics reasons, 30% for family and another 10% are refugees
and btw every developed nations have demographic problems, so stop saying thats Quebec fault and all that shit

Also it is not only Quebec that suffers from immigrants that do not try to adapt to the culture of their new home. Every nation that allows immigration has these same problems. It is a very small price to pay to be able to have people to do the jobs most Quebecers think they are too good for. we need these people, because Quebecers in general are very lazy workers.
Keep in mind that alot of immigrants who come to quebec come there specificially because they come from french speaking countries...ei lebanon and alot of african countries and others i cant remember...quebec doesn't get many somalians because they speak english...
The fact is though many immigrants who come from former french colonies also speak english...and english is the easiest langauge to communicate in so it's only natural for it to start to dominate.
English's dominance in the world is not only from historical reasons but also the simplicity of the language for communication...
English people could argue that the quality of english has gone down since immigration from non english speaking countries increases but we don't. This is generally because french are whinning babies, and this goes back a thousand years.
Just look at strike rates in france...the french will always complain. It's part of their culture.
