When I arrived in Quebec the people were debating whether and how to place English on signs--arguing where exactly to place it and what exact size lettering relative to the French. There are real issues, of course, behind protecting French, but I would like to see Quebecers focus now on the overstressed health care system, the human and medical costs of widespread drug and tobacco addiction, and the astonishing percentage of illiteracy. Leave the very few women who wear niqabs alone.
