I'm French Canadian, and I don't know of any French Canadians who feel they are victims of discrimination. I think this impression that people have (usually English Canadians) comes from two places. The first, which is typically misunderstood is the desire for public services in French. Francophiles (people who ONLY speak French) technically have the right to request any public service in French. Doctors, road signs, bus drivers and birth certificate forms are all examples of things that we have the legal right to access in French. While there is an abundance (perhaps an overabundance) of these in Quebec, Francophiles in other areas of the country have a much harder time accessing these things.
The second, which is the more contentious of the two issues (though the first is fairly contentious among English Canadians), dates back to the First World War, in which French Canadians were promised that they would not be conscripted into a war which they felt did not concern them. Ultimately, they were conscribed like everyone else. It was the opinion of many French Canadians that the British government had done no favours for us, so why should we risk the lives of our fathers and sons for them? The same conscription crisis happened again in the Second World War, although many more French Canadian volunteered for the Second World War, seeing that it was more clearly a war of morality, versus a war of empires, which the first was. When they came back, they felt that in general, the Canadian government did not care as much about French Canadians as English Canadians, and gave us less rights. They formed a movement called the Seperatist movement, petitioning Quebecois people to pressure the government to allow Quebec to become its own country. Twice the entire country voted, and the most recent time, it was within a 5% marigin, to keep Quebec in Canada.
they didnt want to fight for the British
It does not feel good , You don't get treated like the other people. 😏
This feeling of independance goes back to when the English conquered Canada (or Québec as it was then called) and took control over the population, who had for quite some time been under French monarchy. As the English tried to assimilate the French population to the English immigrants, by restricting the catholic religion, and imposing an education based on the English system, it was natural for the French-Canadians to feel as tough they were a nation apart. This feeling is still true for many.
What do you mean? Canada is already a sovereign nation. Canada is already an independent nation. Perhaps you're asking why does Quebec want their independence? The answer to that is rather thorny, to say the least. The generally accepted rational is that the province of Quebec are predominantly French-speaking Canadians (or French-Canadians) who can't/don't identify themselves as being Canadian as much as they are French.
They feel like to protect their own culture this would be the best way to do so.They've also felt mistreated by English Canadians. For example they were paid less money than English-Canadians while performing the same job.They'd never felt a loyalty to Britain since they'd been in Canada for generations.They see themselves as "Canadiens" not "Canadians"
The paralyzed part doesn't feel any pain.
Discrimination on the job leads to decreased productivity among workers who feel that they are targets of discrimination. The workplace functions better without discrimination.
Because americans suck, :3
It takes place because people allow it to, and because the victims are not able to fight back. The ruling class only cares for their own or actively hates those who don't share their group. They feel entitled to their power and position, and feel superior to others. Whatever minorities in this are too afraid to fight back, have been conditioned to hate themselves or to at least find the treatment acceptable, and feel they probably won't be heard anyway if they do voice their objections. So with such feelings established, everyone maintains status quo. To eliminate the discrimination would mean the victims speaking up and more people of the prevailing group taking their side.
If you feel you have been discriminated against in the workplace you should contact an Employment Discrimination Attorney. If you live and work in California, visit the following website: www.discriminationattorney.com
Pierre Trudeau hoped to make all Canadians feel accepted in Canada by He creating programs that would allow minorities to maintain their identity.
