I agree with you that service in French is what's important. But...this is a PQ government, for whom Quebecers voted, and making French more prevalent was one of their promises to these voters. We shouldn't be surprised that the PQ is taking such actions.
I'm wondering how many businesses in Quebec, that have originated outside of the province and are branded under a different language, have chosen on their own accord to translate their brand name into French as a way to improve their image?
I wonder if there could be any sort of boycott of these stores that are suing?
Hypothetically, how much could profits be harmed from such a boycott -- versus -- the amount of money needed to upgrade the store signs?
We'll see how all of this unfolds, I suppose...
I'm very interested in what the Quebec opinion polls about this story may reveal
