Yes, but not to the extent of abandoning their first language

I think they should be required to learn the languages we have in our nation, both French and English. Our government should be able to provide free language learning courses dependent on the language.
Should be required to learn at least one of our primary languages. English OR French

If they live in an area that speaks English dominantly, then they should learn it on their own time if they want to communicate with others. If they do not care, then they do not have to
@8QDSNZY4yrs4Y
No, Immigrants should not have to learn English and English speakers shouldn't be forced to learn an immigrants language. However we should provide optional language classes for those who want to learn and we need to invest more in hiring translators and making technology for communication.
@8FG75SF4yrs4Y
No, that would be a violation of Free Speech.
