I read it better than I speak it these days. I haven't used it since school, so it's VERY rusty.
At least u know some, I think it's awesome they teach all you 2 languages
To be fair, I grew up in Ottawa, where bilingualism is pretty important. Out here in the west, they don't learn nearly as much, and nobody uses it at all.
my family is French and went to French school all my life. Pretty much learn English by default. I've been bilingual pretty much since I can talk.
Was it easy to pick up English? How old were u when u started learning?
kids are like sponges so from TV and playing with neighborhood kids it was easy as a sponge absorbs water.
Can't even remember when, pretty much my whole life. I don't even have a French accent
That's totally my plan for getting some of it back once I'm home - French kids TV.
RDS (French TSN) had some Senators games. Not sure if they still do. I don't get that channel anymore.

We moved out of Ottawa when I was 9. Even in other parts of Ontario they don't start teaching French until Grade 4, so it was a bit hard for me.
What was really weird was moving out here where there is no French on signs or anything. Road signs look really bare.

Yeah, all the time I've spent in Vancouver I've heard French spoken once.
