The province of Quebec was previously a French colony until the British gained it at the Battle of the Plains of Abraham (the English and French fought over regions of Canada, and many eastern areas have changed hands several times) and French is still the main language spoken there. French is also one of Canada's official languages, and all children take at least some basic French in school. Since a large, concentrated section of the population speaks French, it makes things easier for them if French is accepted, signs are in both English and French in regions with a significant French population, and elementary French is taught in even English schools. It also helps keep Quebec from seceding from the rest of Canada, as it has a large separatist movement.
