@ant94 I'm bilingual ( French first language, ESL) and live outside Quebec. It has done absolutely nothing for me, and has actually held me into shit jobs all my life (because French is my mother tongue).
French doesn't make the top 10 spoken languages where I live. Languages like Punjabi, Vietnamese, Mandarin, Hindi, Arabic, etc. are tremendously more useful than French.
Stop the lying and gaslighting. Just because French is the language of Quebec doesn't make it relevant outside Quebec where it's spoken by less than 1% of the population, and is completely drowned out by immigrant languages. I know what I'm talking about.
EDIT: the notion that "Canada is a bilingual country" is just a legal fiction. French is the language of Quebec, and a common language in the north and east coast of New Brunswick, the Ottawa area, and Northeastern Ontario. Anywhere else, French plays no role. Zilch. None.
