"He says the legislation will relegate Canadian multiculturalism to the 'dustbin of history.'

'Multiculturalism no longer applies on Quebec soil, finally! (…) It’s a model that has always been harmful to Quebec,' Roberge declared Wednesday at the National Assembly.

According to him, under that model, the state takes it upon itself to allow newcomers to retain their culture and language of origin.

'That’s Canadian multiculturalism. We live alongside one another,' he explained.

His new law — inspired by interculturalism — aims to signal to immigrants that they are 'arriving in a state with its own model of integration' and that they must accept Quebec’s social contract, which is based on values such as democracy, the French language, gender equality, and secularism.'

'Otherwise, well, it’s not a good idea to come here,' Roberge said. "

Aren't you stereotyping immigrants and Canadians?

Plenty of immigrants value those things, plenty of Canadians absolutely don't.

If some Canadians have a problem with that, they can move to Alberta 🤣

Seriously though, I'm not stereotyping anybody. You're putting words into my mouth. (So to speak)
