Flying J in Vaudreuil Dorion, PQ J7V9J5 - GRRRRRR

Oooooppps,doh!!

 

The people in Quebec are NOT French, they just think they are.

I speak English, does that make me English? If so, my grandparents would be rolling in their graves.LOL

All in all, I don't mind Quebec much. You do have to adapt to things a bit. You just have to remember, YOU are the foreigner, do as the Romans, eh?

 

le big mac.

 

You said it, Canada is Canada and there is Quebec. Some Quebec people think they should be their own country.

 

I'm Canadian and I feel like a foreigner when I drive in Quebec.

 

Yeah, the P.Q. is a bit different. But really, all the times I've been there, more than I can remember, I've truly not had a problem. I can understand the road signs, [even the truck wash signs LOL]. I almost hate to admit it. One of the last times I was in Quebec, I back tracked to Landsdowne to come back to the U.S. I caught myself translating the English signs into French once I got back into N.Y.

Another thing I must admit, there are a number of places in the U.S. that even I feel like a foreigner. Oh dopey me, I can't believe I typed that!!
And it's not because of illegal aliens.LOL

 

The eye candy in Quebec is worth it, no matter what else you can say about that place. Although the last time I was there, I was concerned about different language, different culture, different highways, etc. Little did I know the big problem there is the cheese.

 

Quebec's always been that way. It got real bad after De Gaulle told them during a visit in the 60's that they should revolt - why? Because they're French! But not French enough for France to help them out...

They've been po'd ever since.
