PMFJI Denis. I was thinking like you before. I had changed my mind since then.

Do you personnaly feel threatened of the english language if there were no law? Do you really think that you will loose your french? I don't think so. Your childrens? Neither, they will grow up in a french family. Your grand-childrens? Maybe. But then again, so what? It will be the choice of your childrens.

From my point of view, the less the governement interfere with my life, the better it is.

>Your reaction is just normal because you don't feel threatened by the other languages. The same thing is happening in France. They use many english words in their everyday lives (but they pronounce it with a french twist). They tend to think that it's cool. Things are beginning to change there too. At one point they had no regulation on the language of songs played on the radio. Until the day they realized that their radio station were playing a lot more english songs than french songs. Laws are going to appear over there to change that.
