Visit New Orleans if you get a chance. 100 years ago it had a strong culture renowned for arts, cuisine, etc.. Now it's the same as the rest of america with a little theme park called "the french quarter". Nobody speaks french except for a few grandparents who remember a little.

I think you have very well describe the fear of Quebecer. And as much as I would like to open, I also have that fear.

Like you said, time will balance thing ... then we will have new conflict! :) It's just a cycle.

You deserve an upvote because I never tought of that...

I only wanted to state that my primary language was french. But I must admit it could represent a tension.

In politic, Quebec is a delicate subject indeed.

Well! We have many opinion about Canadian identity in the threat. Some people in other province have difficulty to identify, and some people don't. For me it's not tension, but lack of understanding. But again, I don't represent all the people...

As for "coincide" ... I would love to. But lets face it, it's already difficult to accept people of another city sometime, so a hole country is quite a challenge :) I'm trying tough.

Hell I don't know why either!

Maybe fighting for our culture is in our culture!? O_o

I mean, every day I do the same thing has the rest of the world. And once a year people drink beer at "St-Jean".

But I think it is mostly fear... It would be quite a shock to have everything belingual equaly sudenly. But would be good for tourism!

You are most then welcome in my country! :) ... Or is it me in yours?

Anyway, good post!

We are trying to get along with the "accomodation raisonnable" ... but it's like trying to write civism into laws ... I think we are lacking education, experience and common sense. I'm no different, I just try to be a better person.

Well, I don't want to impose my language to other. But please, don't be upset if some french people have difficulty to serve you in english. Like you don't want to learn french, some won't learn (or very little) english.

About Hockey, it's another debate, and I don't like it hehe

Edit : Also, I'm a webdevelopper. So I understand your concern about string localization and costumer service ;)

Bonjour,

J'ai peur de la haine. J'ai peur de confronter mes idées, mais je suis terrifié de ne pas être en mesure de changer d'idée.

Hi,

I fear hate. I fear the confrontation of my point of view, but I'm terrifie of not being able to change my point of view.

OP here! This article resume quite well Quebec history on a popular level. I'm not separatist, but I'm not against it. If the day come for separation, I will have some serious thinking to do.

Good day to you.

Language is a big problem...

If we go outside of Quebec, we must speak english for good service. And in Quebec you must speak French for good service. Often there will be someone who speak english to help, but it's not an obligation outside of governement institution.

I would love to suggest a solution, but I don't.

Just my 2 cents ... but we were french colonnist abandonned by France to the British. When english people came after there conquest, there tried to change your language and religion.

That being said, I'm not hateful. It's just to show that there is many historic conflict. But I don't want the world to change base on past, or actual, mistake or conflict. But sadly, conflict often win.

I agree with you on your view about the article. It's not really the content. I recon that we have polical and social problem. But the title was really hard.

Like you, I see myself as a Quebecer. I have difficulty to identify as a Canadian, I don't really know why.

Sad thing is, haters gonna hate.

Nothing is perfect in life, being resonable is something essential in our society. Time and social movement will do it's work. ... I hope!
