    That’s funny because other than West Island, I don’t know many people under 18 that know English. The youth have so much Francophone YouTube and online content available now, they don’t need English. It’s so bad that they use French expressions and memes.

    Where are you getting any of this? It’s like you live in Ottawa or somewhere in Ontario. It’s really hard to be that out of touch.

      I would reply you’re out of touch because most of the conversations in my school hallways have always been at least 50% in english. And I live in Quebec. There are some areas where it’s better than others, like Quebec City, but as Montreal is only 49% French-speaking, I wouldn’t say there is nothing happening over there.
