The Commission: Report Card

Basic Language Dept: Last Monday, it was an open letter about the new report card of the Commission sco-laire de Montr al, according to Montreal Gazette. To one teacher for the CSDM, Quebec's largest French-language board, this somehow sent a message to immigrant parents required by Bill 101 to send their children to French schools that learning French is not as important as learning English and no reader's complaint about language, it seems, is too petty to be published on the editorial page of Le Devoir. On it, the mark for English as a second language appeared above the one for French as the basic language of teaching. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
