Maybe where you are - but that's the exact opposite of what I've seen where I live & many other places in Canada.
Not many young deaf people in ottawa anymore. Job market in ottawa very competitive, no jobs here if you are deaf. Deaf people age 20 to 40 move to other cities or Toronto.
Cool.
Most i met who are under age 30, and they know how to speak or CI users who are trying to learn how to speak and sign but not fully ASL. I haven't seen a normal deaf ASL users for a while.
