Just Another Night On The Other Side Of Reality

If a person who works at a large department store in the United States were to yell, "you can't speak Spanish here!" what do you think would happen?

They'd (rightly) be ridiculed and chastised out of a job. That's what. Maybe any of the Times in NY or LA pick up the story hence starting one of those famous American debates on race. Hey, at least they discuss the matter.

Now let's change the setting to Quebec. Someone yells, "you can't speak English!" to a fellow worker.

What happens?

That's right.

Nothing.

Just another day in the parochial world of Quebec.

***That was a true story by the way.
