Just the Governments politics HI it's me. I should be ok (for now). Yesterday the Minister of immigration announced that immigrants who were already in Québec before 1st November are not concerned by the new rules THOUGH as of today the rules are still not changed on their website. So I don't really know what is gonna happen. Also my bf is still scared and his father wants him to go back to france so I am mad anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know others here on GGD like @Florian also went to Quebec to study At first, I wanted to try to live there because there are like a looooot of conferences in France where people from there are trying to "recruit" us. But I didn't get my visa. So I went to study for six month with my ex-best friend and I really enjoyed it. So last year I went back and was hired by a company who paid for my working permit. And I met my man eheh Life is a bit easier. Though some things like health care and food really needs to be improved. It's not really what I was promised but for now I am enjoying it more than when I was in France. I don't know if I make sense because I just woke up.

Cuz its not really the BEST representation of Canada culturally and politically not saying its bad. Just different i find Quebec to be much more Europe and less North America edit: of course theyd promote hard in france. They want as much of their student and immigrant quotas to be french cuz they dont wanna dilute their population with non-white and non french Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But don't worry, I understand that Québec isn't the best représentation of what Canada is. But that's also what makes Québec a strange and interesting place. Also I don't quite agree with the "non-white" thing. A lot of immigrated students were French but with a Northern Africa background. It was quite diverse actually (at least compared to my French engineering school). But yes they're def looking for french-speaking people Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuz Quebec has a reputation for being intolerant of diversity here in Canada. True or not thats their reputation with the exeption of the Montreal area which is known for being more alligned with politics from the rest if Canada The Montreal region also strongly opposes seperation while the rest of Quebec has higher support rates for it What part of Quebec were u in? Ive been to Quebec but never Vancouver. Id like to go there too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are already the largest receivers of the equalization payment program at around $10 Billion a year now... No wonder Alberta is pissed having to pay for that when the rest of Canada attacks their oil industry but then has no issue accepting their Oil money Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
