You are 23% of the population In Canada, 2% of the population in North
America!! Why do 77% of the population in Canada's case and 98% of the
population in North America's case, have to pay for your free ride?!!
It's basic supply economics. This will be the case seperate or not.

We can accept you,  just don't ask us to subsidize you. It has nothing
to do with language; speak French, enjoy your culture; it's all about
money and who pays for that.
