Funny because Quebec people love French requirements because it's their advantage. That's why he won't entertain the thought experiment of having to learn Ukrainian, because he has no advantage there. If I spoke Ukrainian, uni or bilingual, advantage or not, I know it would be bonkers to force Ukrainian on the rest of the country.
No, the job requirements are because French is forced onto the country. It's artificial. That's the whole point.
There are very very very few French speakers West of Quebec. So no there are very very very few French customers if we call it that. The demand isn't there. Again it's artificial. That's the whole point of what I'm saying. It's an artificial construct.
As I said at the start, in BC there's more market demand for Mandarin than French, uni and bi. But the freaking premier got crucified simply for pointing that out.
Nor is it just government jobs as I said. It's all jobs, in every field, even school applications, it's everywhere. All artificial.
Really I covered everything you just asked. You're just ignoring it, so if you continue on ignoring I'm not going to bother responding.
Which is the same as demand.
I'm sad to say it, but you have reading comprehension problems. Maybe that's my bad English, but not sure I could take complaints in that regard seriously here.
What? In BC the demand is for Mandarin. There is no demand for French. But French is the language that's required in many positions in BC. I have no idea what you're trying to say. Ditto for your second part.
