French Classes Should be Mandatory For Canadian Students

Since the Constitution Act of 1867 (Santrock et al., 284), Canada is officially bilingual. Since the bill, researchers have discovered many advantages of bilingualism in cognitive development. Bilingualism improves spiritual flexibility, such as divergent thinking, efficiency of task switching, and promotion of advanced vocabulary. Since bilingual children have excellent meta-linguistic perceptions, they are more conscious of the structure and nature of the language. Bilingual is more efficient in attention management; they easily focus on critical tasks and information.

French celebrated its 50th anniversary in Canada, about 378 thousand students entered the country, 1.3 million French students enrolled. In other words, half of all Canadian qualified students (students outside Quebec) are learning French because there are no students in the state. However, the project faces a big challenge in the future. Lack of resources, less number of language teachers, and welcome project prospects for students without middle-aged and elderly families and special needs.

Students from countries other than French learn French by learning French which is part of English education. In Quebec and New Brunswick, the French language course starts from the first year. In other provinces, the French course usually begins in 4th graders or 5th graders. Students usually take French lessons for about 600 hours at the time of graduation. The purpose of the "Core French" course is not to train a completely bilingual graduate but to "to provide students with the ability to fully communicate in the second language, and the second for students to learn a solid communication base Providing a language tool for continuing language ". . British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan do not have essential French core courses, only essential BC courses are available in BC.

It is said that the language of portmanteau, which combines English and French grammar, grammar and vocabulary to form a unique language, is sometimes attributed to essential French basic education in the Canadian English school system. Many Canadians speak French little, but they often add French words to their sentences. A simple word or phrase such as "c'estquoiça?" (what is this?), or words such as "arrête" (stop) can be replaced with their corresponding English equivalent. This phenomenon is more common in the eastern half of the country where the French population is densely populated.
