Quebec stopped teaching cursive just before my eldest nephew hit school. They will be teaching it again starting next year. So they quit it for a decade and brought it back. Turns out when you don't teach people how to write, then they can't hugging write.

AI is also a factor. We've had to switch to a heavier emphasis on in-class essay writing to combat students using AI to write papers and in so doing it's revealed just how bad the handwriting of students is when you don't teach them script when they're younger. So now everyone's getting back on board teaching cursive to youngsters so they'll have passable handwriting by the time they get to middle and high school.
We didn't have AI when I was in school and I still can't write for crap. But that's just US public education.
I mean, my hand writing has never not sucked... But I can do it.
There are a whole lot of historical documents that are written in cursive (nevermind a lot of stuff written more recently), so... none?
