Multilingual word for a Multicultural world
Canada has the multilingual word for a multicultural world, as demonstarted yesterday through Justin Trudeau speech to elementary school teachers in New Brunswick, "No, I am not for bilingualism," he stated pausedly, "I am for trilingualism and quadlingualism. This is more and more the reality of where we are headed." and it would seem we are truly looking at the future creation of a real Official Languages Act.
Later, he called out separatists as whining and complaining kids, something I suppose he believed his audience knew much about, "Quebec will never separate, ever," he maintained painstakingly, "separatism is a mythology that has been created." to which Trudeau seems to have made his claim electorally quite plain.
New Brunswick has always been friendly territory for the Liberals, just as Nova Scotia has been friendly for the Tories, but as New Brunswick is the only constitutionally bilingual province in the country, one has to wonder why would Justin make such an over the political top statement like that in such a politically sensitive region, especially as his federal party leader, Stephane Dion, has just started to get over his cold start at the helm and the answer is simple - Trudeau is about changing this society towards his own justice as he sees it.
