You're just completely wrong and out of your league when talking about the Quebec issue, it's a constitutional/political issue with a legal precedence, there's no basis in any comparisons you're trying to make to contemporary language issues in America. Stop pretending like you have some kind of actual knowledge on the issue because you googled a sensationalized news article from an American newspaper in 1990 discussing Canadian politics.
The Quebec issue doesn't even have relevance to this conversation, you're trying to make points about how immigrants should conform so why are you talking about a debate, which you ignorantly claim is all about language, that has been ongoing in Canada for hundreds of years. If you were to talk to a Canadian about multiculturalism the English/French debate would not even be mentioned, it's a complete non-issue for virtually everyone. The discussion at hand is about how newcomers should act or be welcomed to a country and multiculturalism in Canada has shown to be a successful model with immigrants integrating into society much better than most countries and especially the United States.
i did not google or post the article originally, the article is a legit article, there is nothing wrong or sensational about the article, its pointing out the history of secession issues canada has, trying to discredit it just because you disagree with it is corny and anti intellectual
and you are wrong, it is very much relevant to the issue of language in america, not just canada but belgium, india, nigeria also are examples of how to deal with or not deal with language
the fact that quebec issues dont matter to you or dont matter to canadians doesnt mean anything, i dont really care either
but the point is the situation of quebec should be studied as to what happens when you elevate a minority language to the same level as the majority language and what happens when you provide constitutional and legal protections to cultures and languages
some people in the us are suggesting that spanish should be treated equal to english for example, it stands to reason that we should study other countries to see what the consequences of such actions are, that is why i brought up quebec
