Something that people should keep in mind is that the fees were lower for those “out-of-province” students in Québec than in their own province.
This fee raise basically brings it on par with what they would pay in their on province. One of the reasoning behind this law is that Québec shouldn’t be subsidizing other provinces way too expensive university system.
If you are living in Québec, university fees are quite cheap, and this doesn’t change.
The French vs English aspect is widely talked about, but not a whole lot is mentioned about the actual price hike.
Because fuck people who want an education and don’t speak a particular language.
They can still study in English if they want to, they just have to learn the local language.
Try to go to university in Vancouver without knowing a word of English.
Say this comment in a language spoken by a First Nation please.
What doe that have to do with the topic at hand? What you’re implying is nothing but a hypocrisy fallacy.
It means that it has to do with ethnic superiority. It isn’t that they are worried about the uniqueness of Quebec vanishing it means they are worried about their specific group not running things.
@quinten@lemmy.world This thread has turned into a complete shit show about hate and discrimination against Québec and its francophone population. Can you please do something?
Frankly, good. Montreal was already becoming remarkably English and that has risks of encouraging Quebec secessionism. Same thing should happen for the Mayan language in Yucatan, Mexico.
