From the previous answers it seems like he was an immigrant to Canada. As such he would not be eligible to send his kids to public English school in Quebec. All immigrants have to send their kids to French public school. That changes only if you pay for private school in which case you are free to choose the language even as an immigrant. Quebec has been trying to limit access to English schools even for Quebecers as many Francophones are sending their kids to English schools.
