I make the statement based on Canadian friends (Ontarions and ex-Quebecois), your press (Toronto and Hamilton) and our media. The general feeling among these diverse sources is that the bi-lingual system has caused many economic, administrative, social, etc. problems. I'm not saying it DOESN'T work, I'm just saying it doesn't work WELL, at least not as well as if you all spoke one language. And to reassert my original argument, I don't see any need for us to do it here. *** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE ***
