What's "woof" in French?
In the absolutely-ridiculous-Canadian-bullshit category is the story of Yvon Tessier and his seeing-eye dog, Pavot (Poppy, in English).
The University of New Brunswick denied entry to Tessier for an English-immersion program because his dog only understands guiding commands in French.
The school said that it needs more time for the dog to familiarize itself with the campus, and that means learning English. Can someone tell me why the dog needs to understand English for his master to attend school there? It's a fucking dog for Christ's sake.
