World: A good way to anger a bunch of Quebecers: call them illiterate

  • Whether in elementary or secondary [school], English is practically swept under the rug [in Quebec]. At the university level, it’s even worse. We have illiterates of the second language.
  • Daniel Petit • A Canadian member of parliament, at a meeting of the House of Commons official languages committee. See, this was just bad form. Criticize them for other reasons that they can’t really get angry about, like liking poutine. Calling them illiterate is just going to get you in trouble, dude. In fact, Petit’s statements completely contradict studies which note that Francophones are adept with both English and French. • source
