I disagree with Legault but I also disagree with you. Quebec and New Brunswick have no obligation to become English monolingual provinces. But we also shouldn't be discriminating against people based on language (any language) where we can accommodate, especially if it's one of the official languages of the country or province.

English is also an official language, yet it's perfectly ok for Quebec to discriminate against Anglophones?

Please read what I said again...

The question was rhetorical. They fucking do, it's an absolutely horrible place for anglophones to live, and Quebec can go fuck itself.

Quebec an horrible place for anglos to live? Makes you wonder why more Ontarians move to Quebec than the contrary...

Montreal, Gatineau, Sherbrooke and the cities/towns around are all places where you can spend your whole life living 100% in English even though it's not an official language. Find me the equivalent for French Canadians in a major city in Alberta.
