Parti Quebecois: Liberal Government

Record Numbers Dept: Immigration Minister Kathleen Weil said Tuesday that Quebec would let in between 51,200 and 53,800 new arrivals in 2012 with basically the same number expected in 2013 and 2014, according to Winnipeg Free Press. Both the sovereigntist Parti Quebecois and Francois Legault, who filed papers on Tuesday to create a new political party, say the government should put a lid on immigrants until they could be better integrated into the French majority and qUEBEC - Quebec's Liberal government says the province will continue to welcome record numbers of immigrants, despite complaints that it's not doing enough to integrate newcomers, many of whom don't speak French. About 18,900 of those arriving next year are expected to be unable to speak French. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
