Bambi is about to go to sleep. This post will be very brief: (1). It will feature and older post on this topic by Dr. Mathieu Bock-C\u00f4t\u00e9; and (2) once again, it will end with a song honouring the French language in North America. If what we are doing to the latter is not a form of modern &#8220;<em>colonization<\/em>&#8220;, to use the word of a relative, what is it then? And what will be the end result of all this linguistic non-sense? Bambi refuses to use this &#8220;<em>Newspeak<\/em>&#8220;, whether she lives in France, Lebanon, Qu\u00e9bec, New Brunswick, or BC. She prefers to stick to the beautiful French language she started learning at age 3. Yes, she will do so, even if the entire planet, including her birth country, starts writing and speaking French like this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Yves Duteil - La langue de chez nous\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4Ot4JSy2304?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-bambi-039-s-afkar\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"jhlfVfKqId\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/index.php\/2022\/10\/18\/dr-mathieu-bock-cote-inclusive-writing-attacks-the-french-language-lecriture-inclusive-agresse-la-langue-francaise\/\">Dr. Mathieu Bock C\u00f4t\u00e9: &#8220;Inclusive writing attacks the French language&#8221; [&#8220;L&#8217;\u00e9criture inclusive agresse la langue fran\u00e7aise&#8221;]<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Dr. Mathieu Bock C\u00f4t\u00e9: &#8220;Inclusive writing attacks the French language&#8221; [&#8220;L&#8217;\u00e9criture inclusive agresse la langue fran\u00e7aise&#8221;]&#8221; &#8212; Bambi&#039;s Afkar\" src=\"https:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/index.php\/2022\/10\/18\/dr-mathieu-bock-cote-inclusive-writing-attacks-the-french-language-lecriture-inclusive-agresse-la-langue-francaise\/embed\/#?secret=jhlfVfKqId\" data-secret=\"jhlfVfKqId\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bambi would like to thank Mr. Jonathan Kay for informing us of the following: It is getting late on the East Coast now.
