Canada

I will admit just as many of us in the class have that I do not know really much about Canada as you think we should considering that they are our neighboring country. I have been there before a few times when I was younger. I have family in Plattsburgh, which is about 45 minutes to an hour away form the border. I have had minimal interaction with English or French speaking Canadians mostly just on ski trips up there sitting in the lodge. I have heard about the conflicts among those French speaking and the English speaking Canadians. The city of Quebec I know is French speaking and they are afraid that if they do not allow French to be spoken there it may be lost all together in the future and only English will be spoken. I think that it should continue to be spoken in the country especially because it is their own version of French that they have developed and its part of their culture and the country itself.
