Is Quebec strictly French? If so how strict?

Yes, Qu�bec is French only. You'll find a lot of places (especially in Montr�al) where the people will have a working knowledge of English as well. But outside of Montr�al? Not so much. You can absolutely study French with us in Qu�bec, but I'm sorry to say that you won't be able to go to school at l'Universit� Laval. It's a Francophone university, thus, you have to be completely fluent. You also have to keep in mind that our French is different than that of the standard international French that you would've learned in school. McGill University is a great school, and it's an Anglophone University. You should look into going there! Bonne chance!
