Best Answer

Britain didn't "let" Canada have a French culture.

Canada doesn't really have a French culture outside of the Province of Quebec. There are pockets of Francophones outside of Quebec, but the majority of natural-born Canadians speak English and follow English-based laws and customs.

Why did Quebec ban public signs in English?

Because they have a freaky antiquated mindset that if you let even one aspect of English culture to enter their province, all French culture will be overtaken and lost. It's a remnant of the times when Britain actually did have a policy to eliminate the French there(It was never really enforced other than some racial bias and failed epically). The French in France, luckily, don't share these attitudes.

Why shouldn't Quebec separate from Canada?

Quebec, being a mainly French speaking province in an English speaking province, feels they have to protect their culture. However, they do not want to be completely independent. They want to have strong economic ties to Canada, but make their own rules and have political autonomy.

How have immigrants influenced Canadian culture?

There is no such thing as a "Canadian" culture anymore than there is a single Global Culture. Canada is a Confederation of many Nations, each with many peoples and cultures. Some of those cultures date back thousands of years, some hundreds and most just a few decades. Most Canadians have very shallow family roots in Canada with 38% not being born in Canada or having at least one parent not born in Canada. With that in mind "Immigrants" are Canadian culture, just as they are Global Culture. BTW in Canada "Immigrants" are considered First Generation and their children Second Generation. This is different than most countries because once a person becomes Canadian they get all the rights and benefits, sometimes even more, than those whose families have been in Canada for hundreds of years. Also those whose families have been here for hundreds of years do not force their culture on others, not even their children. Multi-Generational Canadians have a very live and let live culture and think it is wrong to force others to change their culture. Of course this is not the case for all Multi-Generational Canadian cultures as there are some who have made laws that force their language and culture on new comers. Aside from that minority most Canadians respect other cultures and do not force their culture, or even share their culture as much as others. It is the main quality of Canadians that people like. People who come to Canada have, generally speaking, kept their culture.
