No, because we live in a Bilingual Country. Immigrants should be highly encouraged to learn either French or English
Yes, but we should also embrace the diversity of cultures and languages that they bring.
both they should be able to speck what they want and english
Learning English is very beneficial for immigrants in Canada. Therefore should be required to learn. The government should provide free courses to help these immigrants.
That or French. To be honest though, I don't see how an immigrant could live in this country for any amount of time and not eventually learn either English or French. I don't believe there needs to be any compulsion from the government, they will just learn the language(s) naturally in order to get by.
Yes, while also maintaining their cultural and linguistic diversity.
No, because immigrants naturally starts speaking the language of their residency.
Not unless they are working in a job with the public that requires English to be used
Immigrants should have the ability to attend free English/French lessons
No, it would help them in a lot of communities, but we should also embrace the diversity of cultures that immigrants bring to this country.
No, the government does not need to force people as they will likely learn as they spend more time in Canada.
No, English is not the only official language of Canada

Canada is a bilingual country. Immigration should learn English OR French but not necessarily both.
English or French (if immigrating to Quebec)

Immigrants should be required to learn French and/or English

The government should provide language learning courses to help immigrants learn either English or French.
