And no matter what they do they well go online after school and be bombarded with English. I wonder when the great firewall of Quebec well come into play.

Fair. Maybe all efforts will be in vain and sooner or later French is going to disappear from Quebec. I can’t fault them for resisting, though. Sometimes they go overboard and cross the xenophobic line, but this time… meh, ineffective at worst.
