Bc France doesn’t have any law that forces fast food brands to be in French while mtl does

Quebec language laws are unique to Quebec. No other country demands fast food companies change their name

Absolute Flower :

Quebec has stricter French language laws than France, even applying to brands. Quebec sees its French language as under threat from all the English that surrounds it (it’s basically a French enclave surrounded by English), while French in France is not as under threat for such measures.

hello joe :

its to protect the language. in france it isnt required

Brandon Ridgway :

Montreal requires businesses to display their names in French, in France they just use the name of the business

JCGiant03 :

In France, the French language isn't threatened. It is THE language of the country so there's no need to protect it that much. In Quebec, however, English is spreading and the rest of Canada speaks English. Not that English is the end of the world but there is a genuine concern that leads to stricter language policy..

Séamus 🇬🇧🇮🇪🇪🇺 :

Just look at a Stop sign in Quebec and that will answer your question.

Because Montreal for some reason has laws preventing any English from display (unless it’s tiny writing) and business names cannot have any English in them

Iarlaithe Ó Tighearnaigh :

Use the internet

David. :

Joes-Tours :

Poulet Frit Kentucky, Due to local language laws and cultural preservation initiatives in Quebec, the brand translates its name into French, making it the only region in the world where the chain operates under this acronym. Interestingly, restaurants in France still use the English acronym, "KFC

TheHornet :

Bill 101: Quebec's Charter of the French Language (passed in 1977) requires French to be the predominant language on public signage, advertising, and business branding across the province.
