Well, Quebec is a province(not a country), in Canada, a bilingual country. So the people of this province, should speak and understand both languages.
That being true, is an intelligent statement.
Another one would be this, when the English won the war over the french, they let them keep there language and religion.
Key words: Let them.
Therefore, there should be no problem with English speaking and understanding in this province, because the English(as tyrannical and oppressive as they have proven to be throughout history) at least didnt force the french to convert to speaking only english.
Btw,
Anglos are home, and in terms of graffiti, montreal wouldnt be half as bangin' without anglos, a few examples being ;-)
