"At this very moment (1989) the Secretary of State for Canada and the Commissioner for Official Lan- guages are, by their own definition, on a "War -footing" to make Canada an entirely French nation, the goal openly admitted by former Secretary of State, Serge Joyal. "The new Official Languages Act, combined with the Provincial French Language Services Acts, have been designated to bring about: 1) The Frenchification of every provincial, regional, city and town government and their services to the public, across the whole of Canada. 2) The Frcnchification of all business, industry, unions, the courts, and every enterprise, private or otherwise serving the Canadian public. 3) The Frcnchification of all schools and every workplace across Canada. "Each of these requirements en- taitc the recruitment nf hum* num- bers of Francdphoncs from -Quebec and from abroad into our remaining English-speaking provinces, a flow already underway. Combine those moves with an immigration. policy • which for twenty years has had the singular purpose of closing the doors from the U.S. and U.K. while flooding Canada with others willing to accept French as thcir working language, and we can see that the days of English speaking Canada are, by design, clearly numbered. "This absurd but systematic con- quest is now going into its final stage despite the fact that English is still the language of 96 percent of Canadians outside sovereign French Quebec.
