Quote:
The owner of a small clothing store has been ordered to change the language of the store’s Facebook page to French by the government of the French-speaking province of Quebec. Quebec has a law to protect French which it estimates is threatened by the prevalence of English in the rest of Canada and the United States.
But hey it's ok, its to PROTECT FRENCH so it must be a good thing.

The government was roundly ridiculed recently for complaining that a restaurant menu included the word “pasta” which is not French but Italian. The government had to backtrack and withdraw the complaint after the story made headlines in Canada and around the world.
Assholes.
