Beautiful story of perseverance. I wish people who are trying to learn French in the government will read it.
You must have love Montreal and the French language a lot to put so much efforts.
Like you, I learned my English mainly by osmosis as well but unlike you, more by necessity living as a francophone in a sea of anglophones.
