Difficulty: Advanced

Canada, France

Quebec's current relationship with France is complex. French politicians tend to tread carefully regarding Quebec's sovereignty. For many years France adopted a policy of "neither indifference nor interference," a more neutral stance somewhere between a hands-off policy (which could be seen as complete abandonment) and an overly intrusive relationship. Sarkozy moved away from that policy, but his successor Hollande revived it.

Le Québec parle - aux Français - Part 4

Difficulty: Advanced

Canada, France

Les Canadiens comme les Français tiennent à conserver leur langue qui est de plus en plus influencée par l'anglais. Le gouvernement canadien a pris des mesures pour préserver le français en inventant des mots plutôt que de les emprunter à l'anglais. Par exemple, le mot "courriel" a été adopté ou même le mot "pourriel" pour les couriers indésirables ou "spam" en anglais. Ce qui est surprenant, c'est que la France a plus tendance à utiliser certains mots anglais qu'au Canada et n'utilisent guère le mot "courriel".

Difficulty: Advanced

The situation of the French language in Quebec is controversial and complex. Montreal was an English-speaking city until 1920, and it wasn't until the passage of Law 101 in 1977 that French became the official language of Quebec. According to some of the interviewees in this video, Québécois French is in a precarious position once again, with municipal signage and corporate names in Montreal reverting to English, as well as shopkeepers who refuse to speak French.
