"...as if a handful of voices suddenly cried out in anguish and suddenly no one cared."

An act of vandalism in Calgary:

 The black spray paint on the French portion of the stop signs in the Mission neighbourhood cover “arrêt,” which is French for “stop.”

I'll just leave this right here:

 The French presence in Alberta. Details in text following the infographic.

And this:

In November 2010, Trudeau told a Quebec television show that he was tired of Albertans running the country and that, whether it was Jean Chretien or Brian Mulroney, Canada is better off when Quebecers are running the country.

"Canada isn’t doing well right now because it’s Albertans who control our community and socio-democratic agenda. It doesn’t work," Trudeau said in French to interviewer Patrick Lagace on the Tele-Quebec program Les francs-tireurs (The Straight Shooters).

Lagace then asked Trudeau if he thought Canada was "better served when there are more Quebecers in charge than Albertans?"

Trudeau replied: "I’m a Liberal, so of course I think so, yes. Certainly when we look at the great prime ministers of the 20th century, those that really stood the test of time, they were MPs from Quebec… This country – Canada – it belongs to us."

This stop sign is written in Cyrillic. How will people know to stop?

This stop sign is written in Khmer. Now what are people going to do?
