Nothing prevents it from happening, it goes against the Constitution and it's up to the government to do something about it and I'm sure Quebec will fight much harder to see french getting the respect it deserves.

Alright, but don't be surprised that BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, as well as Newfoundland and Labrador also fight for themselves. Insisting that high-level positions be fluent bilingually disenfranchises unilingual provinces.

Why? We're able to learn English, aren't anglo Canadians able to learn French?

That is not even a fair statement. Like it or not English is a much more beneficial language to learn.

Doesn't keep some English speakers from learning a second language... Anglos are the only people in the world that will be proud to show how little they know by bragging about not learning a second language, or learning one in school and forgetting all about it ASAP!
