Title
English-speaking Quebec in the Light of Its Reaction to Bill 22
Description
An evaluation of reactions to, condemnations of, and opinions relative to Québec's 1974 passage of Bill 22 - making law the preference and predominance of the French language in that province. Much of the hubbub surrounding this bill was created by its opponents who cited, among other things, its imposition on freedom of linguistic choice, or its strangulation of a parent's choice of the language in which one's child might be schooled. The author of this article used information gathered from English-speaking Québecers and English-language newspapers from the province. His ultimate argument is for the bill to be repealed, claiming, in the words of other opponents, that it is "a repressive piece of legislation" that pays scant attention to Québec's anglophone minorities.
