It makes sense. We all can see what happened to Canada. We need to be a united nation.

We all can see what happened to Canada.

Yeah, they have two official languages, this is clearly an incremental move towards such horror.

It needs to be real American English. I'm tired of "colour" "maths" and "cheque". This is what happens when DEI runs wild.

Nein, danke.

It divides their country, it creates a stronger cultural difference. It is extremely inefficient. Imagine the trouble multiple languages would cause.

I must of missed where this power is delegated to the president? Seems like something congress should of addressed if there was such a great need.

Clearly this is going to lead to multiple official languages. Once you get one others will be added.

Yep, Canada should just make French their official language and stop printing stuff in English. That would be much more efficient.

What a quaint pre- 1/20/25 thought.

I know, silly me expecting the president to not exceed his authority.

It's also a reminder that the French have lost every war they have ever fought in. With the exception of the French Revolution. But that's because they were fighting the French.

I'm going to miss all those multipage/multi language supplements with my utility bill. Though it ought to save a few million trees.

It will be interesting to see what happens. Congress may follow-up with a law.

Just look at the divided horror of a divisive state that is Switzerland! That's what more than one language leads to.....

 

[CRAZY_CAT_WOMAN]

English is all ready the official language.

English is all ready the official language.

The US has no legally declared official language and it won't by the end of this month either.

 

[DaisyDay]

English is all ready the official language.

It's more the default language than official; the US has no official one (yet), Don't know why we even need one.

It leads to really good chocolate?

I honestly feel uneasy about this. I like things how they are?

It should just be left alone!
