Law to protect French in Canada aims for more francophone immigrants
The federal government plans to set a target to bring more francophone immigrants to Canada as part of a drive to revive and protect French in the country.
Joan Fraser, a board member of the Quebec Community Groups Network, said the proposed law focuses heavily on protecting French within Quebec, and the French-speaking minority in the rest of Canada, and not enough on the English-speaking minority within Quebec.
