MONTREAL - Former Quebec premier Bernard Landry has joined a campaign aimed at extending the province's language law to get more students to attend junior college in French. Landry and a coalition of hardline nationalists want to reduce the number of students who go to English-language post-secondary institutions, something that would require changes to the province's language law. Under Bill 101, new immigrants to Quebec are required to attend French elementary and secondary schools but are free to go to either an English- or French-language junior college.
