Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The primary goal of these initiatives was to ensure that the Québécois community could survive and gain equality. This included interventions in non-francophone institutions to ensure that French culture and language were recognized and respected, as well as compulsory French language training to promote assimilation of immigrants and ensure that all Quebec residents could participate fully in the political and economic life of the province. These initiatives were seen as necessary to protect the distinctiveness and vitality of the Québécois community in the face of external pressures and to promote its continued existence and growth within Canada. Maintaining francophone pride and preserving cultural distinctiveness as a tourist attraction may have been secondary goals, but the primary focus was on ensuring the survival and equality of the Québécois community. Guaranteeing federal transfer payments was not the primary goal of these initiatives but rather a condition of Quebec's participation in the Canadian federation.
