@8P3F3JT4yrs4Y
Yes, current legal immigrants should be required to learn fluent english, french , and spanish
@9PQSJHJ8mos8MO
They should only be allowed in the country if they can prove they speak all languages spoken historically in the province they are moving to. e.g. An immigrant to Nova Scotia must learn English, French, Scottish Gaelic and Mi'kmaq.
@9MN6QYS9mos9MO
they should not force it but they should provide free language learning courses for those that want to
@9MKYKGX9mos9MO
Yes, they should be required to learn English (or French if in Quebec or other majority-Francophone areas.)
@9MC4BQL10mos10MO
No but it should be encouraged if they live in an area with predominantly English speakers with free programs to help learn. Same with French. Learning hurt nobody.
@9M4LF5F10mos10MO
No, but the government should provide free courses in English (French in Quebec) for any immigrants who have no knowledge of the language.
@9LX8MD910mos10MO
Yes, with the inclusion that French should also be accepted to reflect our status as a bilingual country.
@9LLKTTY10mos10MO
Yes, but only if they are not immigrating to Québec or another francophone region of the country, in which case they should instead be required to learn French.
