I think we're on the same side here, for the most part. I support the
idea of making resources available for students to learn second languages,
but I don't think that language should be so explicitly limited towards
French. If German, Spanish or even Chinese were offered in school rather
than French (Or as well as French) we would see a significantly higher
percentage of the population being multilingual. But not necessarily in the
French language.
