I don’t believe anyone should be forced to but I also don’t believe it’s them on the government to bend over backward to accommodate to everyone outside of the most common languages.
@9KB69QM1yr1Y
I don't think they should be made to learn English, but I do believe that is should be recommended to help the immigrants assimilate, and as such government should provide free language learning courses.
@B4BNFJ31 day1D
They should not be forced to learn English but rather encouraged and given opportunities to learn it by the federal government.
@B3R5KQR3wks3W
With free government lessons and assistance. It must never be forced and different languages and cultures need to be embraced
@B3NKN8D4wks4W
No, but still provide free English language services, as it is near impossible for individuals with limited to no English to live and access services.
@B3JHP3V4wks4W
It should be encouraged and accessible, but not strictly required - the government should provide free language learning courses
@B3F3DYH1mo1MO
What kind of question is that? If they need to they will, otherwise they won't get very far, but that's their choice
@B3CRNFD1mo1MO
If English is necessary for the persons employment or reason for coming to Australia they should be required to learn it, however if not I don’t think there is reason for it to be required.
