PAOV — Quebec’s proposed Bill 96 vastly expands the protection of French as the province’s primary language and the legislation is widely expected to become law. There are serious concerns about how the new law will affect access to healthcare, education, government services, and justice in the province. Petition starter Melissa is urging the government to stop Bill 96. You can help in this critical moment by adding your signature.

48,664 have signed Melisa Bauco’s petition. Let’s get to 50,000!

Let’s fight for our rights!
The new legislation, called Bill 96, would cap the proportion of students in English-language CEGEPs to 17.5 per cent of the overall student population  —  the same levels as last school year.

The will bill also affect business’. For example, following adoption of the bill, citizens who can’t get served in French in Montreal shops will be entitled to file complaints against store owners. A simple phone call to the Office québécois de la langue française will suffice.

This is not a communist country although it feels like it!
English is not a disease and Quebec should be bilingual because you are part of Canada!!!
