As someone with 9th grade Canadian core French from 25 years ago, this has not been my experience of the French at all. Not in France, nor in Quebec. What are y'all doing to their language??!?

Because there is zero trust that this won't be a one-sided liberalization, in favour of the fascists.
Yes, yes, clearly we haven't given the rich enough power. If only we gave them more, then they'd solve all our problems! Let's abdicate our responsibility to each other even harder!
That'll surely fix things this time!

Would you be surprised to learn that business is actually a network of cargo cults, where the thing they're trying to superficially mimic is other businesses that don't know why they're doing what they're doing?
I work for an online edtech company that saw massive organic growth during lockdowns, and has been chasing that dragon since lockdowns were lifted. They spent millions expanding their workforce at the time, while they severely pared down their school outreach team.

So, there's this issue that there is a significant fraction of indigenous people who aren't interested in being called Canadian, in no small part because every interaction indigenous groups have had with white Canadian institutions have been done on the white Canadians' terms.
White Canadians lobbying them to get on board the Canadian Unity train is... just more of that.
White Canadian political leaders stepping all over indigenous land and consultation rights is just more of that.
