Controversial claim of the Minister of Immigration and Labor of Quebec about immigrants

According to the Canadian news report, quoted by CTV, the Minister of Immigration and Labor of Quebec also said that immigration has two challenges: the economy and the dynamics of the French language.
According to him, these immigrants do not adhere to the values ​​of Quebec.
Of course, he later apologized and said that they should focus on accepting, learning and using the French language and integrating new immigrants who are Quebec’s assets.
Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante, referring to this speech, asked him to take back his words.
By publishing a tweet on his Twitter account, he wrote: “Montreal is a destination for immigrants who contribute to the economic, social, cultural and dynamism of the French.”

At the same time, Francois Lugo believes that accepting 50,000 immigrants per year, including non-French speakers, is a threat to national cohesion in Quebec.

According to the latest Statistics Canada report on immigration to Quebec, between 2011 and 2016, Quebec accepted 215,170 immigrants.
Of these, 83% went to Montreal.
The most immigrants in this period were from France (20030), followed by Haiti (16,875), Algeria (16,380) and Morocco (13,480).
