Mamochan13,
I believe French Quebecers don't really care whether the rest of Canada speaks French or not. All they care about is to live in a province (or country) that reflect their culture, language and where they feel they belong. I recall a time when the majority of immigrants arriving in Quebec would send their kids to English schools. Without language laws it would have just been a question of time for Francophones to become a small minority within Quebec and like other Francophone communities in the rest of Canada they would have to struggle to maintain their identity.
Today I have come to understand this better than ever. I have now lived in Ontario for well over a decade and I have built a great life here with no plan to return to Quebec when I retire. Still, I miss being in Quebec and I fear my French Canadian heritage will soon vanish within my own family...my grand-children are being raised in Ontario and they don't speak French...their mother tongue is English and sending them to French-emersion schools is no garantee they will embrace our French Canadian cuture.
2006 Stats Can states that 9.4% of Canadian Anglophones claim being able to hold a conversation in French. Nearly 90% of Francophones living outside Quebec speak English. Many of my English speaking friends in Ontario tell me they took a couple of year of French in school, but all they retained is "je suis Bruce" and "où sont les toilettes"...not having a need or the opportunity to use French explains why they forgot it or wouldn't put in the effort to learn. As for Francophones living outside of Quebec, they are exposed to the English language on a daily basis which explains that almost everyone is biligual.
In Quebec 68.9% of Anglophones can hold a conversation in French and 35.8% of the Francophones claim they can speak English. As you can see there is a much higher percentage of bilingual people in Quebec although the only official language in Quebec is French...Many francophones realize they need to learn English in order to communicate with the rest of North America. Like in Ontario, French students study English and the opportunity and need to use it is greater since they are surrounded by Anglophones. Some Francophones, like many other Canadians don't see the need or simply don't want to learn a second language...and this is their right.
