When I asked one of the vendors why the Quebec flags were there, he responded: "so that's what they are." The Quebecois think they are the centre of the universe but the fact is that very few people outside of Canada know what the hell the Quebec flag is. I suppose the merchants in Burlington threw the Quebecois tourists a bone by putting up a few of their beloved flags (which are unrecognizable to virtually everyone else).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963035472241877292.post-47772866555127230742011-08-26T16:13:32.082-04:002011-08-26T16:13:32.082-04:00Je crois bien que c'est le contraire,les touri...Je crois bien que c'est le contraire,les touristes (normaux) aiment bien être dépaysés,n'est-pas le but des voyages?Lorsque je vais en Allemagne,je ne m'attend pas a voir des indications en français,même chose pour l'Angleterre ou les É-U.<br />Ceci dit,je n'ai jamais eu d'accident dans ces pays,serais-je plus intelligent qu'un américain?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963035472241877292.post-11531291820312698482011-08-26T16:04:07.975-04:002011-08-26T16:04:07.975-04:00Ouais ok, mais ton article n’adresse pas vraiment ...Ouais ok, mais ton article n’adresse pas vraiment ce que je disais.<br /><br />Pour être plus clair dans mes propos: Je ne crois pas qu'on devrait changer nos façons de faire pour les gens de l'extérieur.<br />Cependant, un touriste américain, ou d'une autre province (anglophone), va probablement avoir plus de difficulté à se retrouver ici au québec, à cause de nos langues sur l'affichage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963035472241877292.post-66203782044619010242011-08-26T15:58:30.591-04:002011-08-26T15:58:30.591-04:00"It probably looks dumb to all the tourists w..."It probably looks dumb to all the tourists who come here from anywhere else in north america..."<br /><br /><br />Faux! :<br /><br />http://blogues.cyberpresse.ca/pleinair/2011/07/07/montreal-troisieme-meilleure-ville-d%E2%80%99ete/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963035472241877292.post-55758857672234990362011-08-26T15:50:20.255-04:002011-08-26T15:50:20.255-04:00I doubt any that any english speaking quebec resid...I doubt any that any english speaking quebec residents (LES MÉCHANTS ANGLAIS!!) really care about the language that shows up on advertisements and road signs. <br />I case you haven't noticed, the english speaking population of quebec usually also understand french. The entire population around us is french, so it's only logical to know french. (hint hint)<br /><br />And anyways, who cares whether it's "STOP" or "ARRÊT"? I guess a french Jean-Guy could be confused by the word "STOP", or he might feel oppressed and dominated by the dirty englishman and decide not to stop in protest, causing accidents.<br /><br />It probably looks dumb to all the tourists who come here from anywhere else in north america, where everything is english. Most places try to accommodate others (Vermont are currently adding more french to accommodate tourists from quebec), but not here. Cause we all know that french people don't like money (ref: Jacques Parizeau 1995), especially when it comes from english speaking people.<br /><br />Really, who cares about the signs? What gets to me is the fact that as a "Québécois de souche" (born in quebec from 2 french canadian parents, white, catholic, french as first language - does all that qualify me for the "De Souche" certification?), I cannot decide in which language to send my kids to school in... Basically removing the freedoms of the actual population for some racist / xenophobic agenda.<br /><br />Maybe you Jean-Guys don't mind having the government decide for you, but I do, because once it begins, who knows where it will end.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963035472241877292.post-29263368558534511612011-08-26T15:02:04.931-04:002011-08-26T15:02:04.931-04:00"Conclusion: the size of English on signs in ..."Conclusion: the size of English on signs in Quebec should be at least 40 times the size of French."<br /><br />Il serait plus simple pour vous de porter des lunettes.Ce ne doit pas être évident pour un vieil anglo de Montréal de lire les indications.Même moi qui a une vue impeccable,je n'avais jamais remarqué les inscriptions en english.Stephen Harponnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963035472241877292.post-59675760752641422932011-08-26T14:46:13.999-04:002011-08-26T14:46:13.999-04:00Fact 1: There are over 300 million English speaker...Fact 1: There are over 300 million English speakers in North America, and 7 million French speakers. <br /><br />Fact 2: 300/7 = 42.8<br /><br />Fact 3: Quebec is in North America.<br /><br />Conclusion: the size of English on signs in Quebec should be at least 40 times the size of French.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963035472241877292.post-19571523029483549962011-08-26T14:41:09.396-04:002011-08-26T14:41:09.396-04:00"plusieurs commerçants locaux se sont déja in..."plusieurs commerçants locaux se sont déja inscrits aux cours de français intensifs."<br /><br />Now, this is funny.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963035472241877292.post-88519129510987812142011-08-26T14:39:54.481-04:002011-08-26T14:39:54.481-04:00English has 10 times as many words as French ..hen...English has 10 times as many words as French ..hence it is a better language.<br /><br />There is no way anyone.. not even a linguist can justify a language like French being better than one with 10 times the number of words .<br /><br />French 85 000 <br />English 850 000<br /><br />In Quebec its always French v.s English ..those are the numbers .English wins .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963035472241877292.post-90664000696768405962011-08-26T14:29:54.734-04:002011-08-26T14:29:54.734-04:00As our wise Adski said...
