An intolerant people named Québec

Actually Fjordor, quite a few of the threads in the Political palace ‘are’ specialized to one certain region, Afghanistan, Iraq, America, Canada, Mexico… I also had a lot of posts on my thread on the seal hunt, which takes place in a certain region, but enough of that….

I find that Québec is a lot like other places in the country, some people are intolerant and some are not, however I have had a few ‘interesting’ encounters there. I can speak enough French to get me around, but people can hear my accent, and know that I am a English speaker and give me dirty looks, actually… come to think of it, they where from teenagers, adults smile when they heard me. The leader of the Bloc party Gilles Duceppe does not help, he behaves that Québec is the only province that matters in the country, and does not want to work together to make things right. He does not get it that Canadians really care about the province.

Québec voted not once... but TWICE to stay with Canada, and Gilles wants to have another referendum on a issue that has already been resolved MULTIPLE times! I think Gilles Duceppe needs to start getting the idea that he is a Canadian.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
