An Analysis of Montréal's Quartier Chinois and Sense of Self : Une Loi peut faire mal au dragon, mais La Loi ne peut pas tuer le dragon
|
Abstract |
In 1976, the Quebec National Assembly ratified the Charter of the French Language, also referred to in English as Bill 101. The Charter is meant to promote the French language in Quebec. The Charter has come under scrutiny from Anglophones (English speakers) and Allophones (non-native English or French speakers) in Quebec. The author analyzes one group of Allophones, Chinese Montrealers. In particular, his analysis examines how the Chinese community in Montreal perceives its self-identity as threatened by Bill 101 and believes this law is a form of forced assimilation.
