“”"French must be the predominant language on signs.
Under those new signage regulations, non-French company names or trademarks must be accompanied by French text twice the size, effectively forcing companies to add French descriptors or shrink English words to comply.“”"
Those are the latest rules. Additional languages will be punished if the French version is not sufficiently large but I think this only applies to names and trademarks, not all signs.
What I was mentioning was an older case described here: https://canliiconnects.org/en/commentaries/29658 Not sure what the final verdict was but someone was very much arguing in court that signs in many languages are illegal.
Wait, so you’re actually mostly wrong about the new law and wrong about the old case I had in mind. So you’re kind of mostly wrong.
What are you FUDing about?
Quebec requires both English and French displayed but won’t punish other additional languages.
Well, you’re kind of right but only kind of.
