Irish Times: "Irish replaces French as second most popular language in North’s A-levels - Optional Irish available in only 35 per cent of schools but held firm as other languages declined"

RIP Tove Skutnabb-Kangas (1940-2023), a tireless advocate for linguistic rights.

Like all human-rights destroyers who get away with unethical propaganda the CAQ government in Quebec, Canada, are lying about #Bill96.
"From the government ad: "English-speakers in Québec will continue to benefit from the same constitutional guarantees concerning their access to justice in their language." #humanrights #polqc #Quebec #languagerights #rights
All the legal experts consulted by CBC disputed this claim."
