Well, he could have assistants who translate, right? There are plenty of such situations in European pro leagues, aren't there?That's the dumbest argument I've ever read.
Leafs won't hire a unilingual francophone coach because the common working language of the nhl is English. The coach wouldn't be able to communicate with his players.
She was a Liberal Minister, can't say that the liberals go out of their way to "protect the French language"... I'd like to see the reation if they'd hire a unilingual francophone to coach the leafs.

The government doesnt have a **** ass say in how the habs, a private enterprise, manage their business. The "coach must be french" madness during Cunneyworth was orchestrated by the french hockey media who dont wanna have to deal with an anglophone coach for obvious reason. It caught on with some people and the politicians rode the band wagon all the way to the station. The government is hardly preventing anyone from enjoying their sport "in peace and quiet". The only reason the habs abide by that rule is because they've decided to submit themselves to it.
As for Montréal, what you've said is true of any metropolis, {Mod}. "The rest of the territory is dragging down the big city!!". Except that the big city is 100% dependent on that territory for its food and energy. Montréal being a french city in anglo North American context is hardly a bad thing. If anything, it drives tourism and businesses. It's pure cultural wealth.
