I usually defend the rights of French in Canada, but I have to agree with your observation... French is not used much in Toronto, if at all (can any Torontonian name a French district in this city), and as you suggest, would arguably rank 5th after English, Italian, Mandarin/Cantonese, and south Asian dialects of Hindi/Urdu/Bengali

More wasted dollars thanks to Liberals, especially when there seems to be little demand for this.  Toronto area already has 4 universities in the greater metropolitan area. 

Curious why this money couldn't have been directed towards healthcare spending... an area with a much greater need? 

Do Liberals just lie awake at night and think of new wasteful spending initiatives?  After reading this article, it certainly appears that way!
