"Despite being denounced as unconstitutional and xenophobic, a Parti Quebecois bill that would require newcomers to master French before they could become Quebec citizens has the support of a majority of francophone Quebecers, a poll found. Bill 195 would ban new arrivals, both from within Canada and abroad, from running in provincial, municipal or school-board elections, donating to a political party or submitting a petition to the National Assembly if they could not demonstrate an acceptable command of the French language."
