They can still study in English if they want to, they just have to learn the local language.

Try to go to university in Vancouver without knowing a word of English.

What doe that have to do with the topic at hand? What you're implying is nothing but a hypocrisy fallacy.

It means that it has to do with ethnic superiority. It isn't that they are worried about the uniqueness of Quebec vanishing it means they are worried about their specific group not running things.

I speak both official languages fluently and I'm sad that a local first Nation language isn't part of the curriculum starting in primary school.

It's also pretty funny that you're insisting on first Nations considering they are part of the few people that are guaranteed to be able to go to school in either French or English in Quebec.

Someone has problems listening and understanding in English. You should probably not attend university, nothing for you there. It might introduce you to new ideas.
