Both English and French are the official languages of the country. All over Canada we have people who speak English and French. Yes Quebec is where most Frenchies are but you can find many in every part of the country.

"A multitude of languages are spoken in Canada. According to the 2006 census, English and French are the preferred language ("home language", or language spoken most often in the home) of 67.1% and 21.5%, respectively.
English and French are recognized by the Constitution of Canada as "official languages," which means that all laws of the federal government are enacted in both English and French and that federal government services are required to be available in both languages."

Which makes me wonder. if the margin of English speakers is so much more than Spoken French.
Why English is not chosen as the 1st, it would save a lot of Paperwork regarding laws and also intergration also

You could say the same here. But I'm glad they don't make me learn Hebrew.

It doesn't seem you have made much of an effort yourself here! It is a forum - as long as I can understand people I don't care!! Some people!!!:mad:

"You could say the same here. But I'm glad they don't make me learn Hebrew."

Why hebrew?

The only thing I've noticed with you is that you ALWAYS use exclamation marks.

It should also be "Make an effort" Not "Make a effort.

This is the last place I thought I'd get into Canadian language laws, tabarnak.

Anyway, I don't have a problem lapsing into txt speak. A phone is a phone, a computer keyboard is a computer keyboard. My brain is developed enough to tell the difference between these two devices.

I also suspect the educational system in Britain is failing a lot of these young people. Many of them can't spell, construct sentences, or express themselves. Or, they choose not to out of some misguided belief that writing properly makes you a "posh twat" or something like that innit bruv.

Mark Twain said that using an exclamation mark is like laughing at your own joke. I'm kind of with him on that one...

What really irritates me is when people write "must of" instead of "must have" but I am only mentioning it for this post:shocked:

correct me if i'm wrong but shouldn't it be "an" effort.:cat:

What annoys me the most is when people get the wrong type of to/two/too etc.

It really grinds my gears...

I have to admit.... what drives me mad is when people say "alot" and they mean " a lot". Also just mentioning it in passing...

I sometimes do that, just because "a lot" never really looks right to me :joker:

I always make sure that I have as little spelling and grammar errors as possible when I post, it is just much easier to read and understand. I also find it hard to debate BB with people when they can't construct a sentence.

Ahhh... so you do that, do you. You relise of course, that next time you will be punished? I'll get back to you.

I've got to say that, compared to most forums I've seen, the standard is not too bad here. And yes, it does make it so much easier to understand when it's clear.

Tut tut... :nono:

Yes, the standard here is much better than a few others, but it could do with some improvement.

LMAO... hoist by my own petard. I'm going to kill myself now...

Or the wrong 'Their, There, or They're

I have to agree slightly with the OP to be honest... I wouldn't have put it so bluntly myself, but the spelling and grammar do leave a lot to be desired on here sometimes.

I don't have a problem with text-speak so much - it is more the incorrect use of "their", "there" or "they're" and similar typical grammar mistakes which, combined with poor sentence construction and general bad command of the English language, make some posts very hard to understand!

Of course... a lot of people don't know any better, or they can't be bothered checking or correcting even if they know it's wrong. Plus a lot of people, especially in a forum, are just wanting to quickly type a response and move on...

Shame really...

Nebi, je comprends... et je compatis avec tu! Ne t'inquiète pas de les gens méchantes!!

Everyone is allowed one... :devil:

LOL.

Ouai, ouai, ils sont pour la plupart des ados qui viennent de les quartiers les plus défavorisés en Angleterre. La classe moyenne ce concerne pas avec Big Brother.
