than kicks), you will not succeed.
I am on to you... ;-)

Ask the Quebecois what
language they speak. They were here after the natives, but before the
British (or any other) white man. The French have given Canada some of
it's best icons (Guy Lafleur, Sir Wilfrid Laurier) and help to give Canada
it's cosmopolitan reputation (and help to differentiate us from the
US). Why wouldn't we encourage them to continue to practice their
culture?
Tough. They lost the war. Let
them go speak swahili or whatever somewhere else - we won, they lost, it's
therefore our country, our rules. Life is tough.
