For the humility of the French, I think they should all be made to speak german. Or english.
Just for the lolz. say for a decade or so.
For the enrichment of others, I think they should be made to speak proper French or Italian for a year.

I don't see much point asking that question. If you want to study in French, go to Quebec or France (free uni!)
It will soon be taken over, and as far as I'm concerned I already studied in French at home. I studied from a Belgique immigrant, it would be a lot different. I could share my culture with them, and that would be cool. However, I could do the same thing in any 7/11 at this point. 

I've considered asking my aunt if I can move in, just so I can be closer to home, but it's not worth it. France is not France. Nor do I think it's definite she would say yes. Besides, it's very weird watching your 80 year old great Aunt pretend she's young. She's still doing concerts I don't know who her audience is. She sang "ma rivière" the song that goes "la la la la la" in the 60s.

I'm not quite following the aunt story. Anyway, it takes one strong faith to go to the French speaking land now. But it's worth it. I have no interest in learning French, but when I was in France I wish I knew the language as well so that I could communicate with people more and know the sermon and read the pamphlets they had at the chapel.
