Abstract
The most explosive conflicts between the French and English linguistic communities have occurred in the education sector. French and English Canadians always ask themselves what are the schools making of their children. Hence “the intense fierceness of the discussions bearing upon this subject: what is at issue is … the very destiny of two people and two civilizations”. There will be no lasting accommodation between the French and English linguistic communities until just settlement of minority language education rights extinguishes communal suspicions that the education sector is not treating their children appropriately.
