Assuming you're talking about Canada, the reason is simple: French and English are the countrie's two official languages. Therefore, to ensure immigrants can communicate efficienty with anyone else, and also to ensure immigrants integrate more easily with the rest lf the population, it is obligatory to learn one of the two languages. Think of it this way: if you were going to Spain, for example, you could very well communicate in English, and almost everyone would understand you to a certain extent. However, they would be delighted if you could speak Spanish and show that you are interested enough by their culture and country to kearn their native language. It's really just a question of fitting in, and also showing interest for the country in which you reside.
