Canada is an officially bilingual nation - CEO competencies
"Air Canada has announced that its CEO Michael Rousseau will retire this year, following widespread criticism over his English-only condolence video addressing a crash that killed two of the airline's pilots this month. "

Le manque d’ #enseignants #francophones contraint des écoles d’immersion française de l’ #Ontario à embaucher des #professeurs #anglophones, qui ne parlent « pas un mot de #français ».
« Des fois, [les écoles] vont choisir un #enseignant dont le niveau de français n’est peut-être pas au niveau. Mais c’est soit ça, soit ne pas avoir de classe d’immersion » #langue

Oh la la!!
« Les droits des étudiants #anglophones des autres provinces canadiennes, qui sont d’un peu moins de 9000 $ actuellement, passeront à environ 17 000 $, alors que ceux facturés aux étudiants étrangers atteindront environ 20 000 $.
#Québec veut ainsi « se donner les moyens » de financer des mesures dans les #universités #francophones du réseau et « freiner le déclin du #français à Montréal », a justifié la ministre Déry. »
