My kids are in French Immersion. It's a two-for-one education. They learn everything kids in English-only schools learn, times two.
It will open many opportunities for them in the future that people that only speak English won't have, particularly in Canada. So many government jobs require bilingualism. It's an ace up your sleeve throughout life. And it's free. It's GD amazing the opportunities we can have in this city if we choose to take them.
My wife is fluent, so that helps. When I help the kids with their homework, I have to have google translate up to help me help them. It's not ideal, but it works.
