Boy has things really gotten out of hand in my home city after 35 years. All about language. How silly! I could meet a francophone in Vancouver and tell him how wonderful it is to hear french spoken in my local market and make me miss Montreal so much and he can tell me how much he loves Vancouver.I guess the Quebecois that are moving to the west are a tad more intelligent that the ones left behind as they realize that they own the WHOLE country and not just a portion thereof. Sad!

Taylor C. Noakes, if you ever want my vote, you'll have to stop calling it "St. Catherine's".
ReplyDeleteKate - what would you prefer?
ReplyDeleteSainte-Catreene?
Saint-Kits?
Saint-Catherine?
Sain' Catrin?
Retail Row?
Call it by it's name: "rue Sainte-Catherine".

ReplyDeleteBlame it on the nutcases and xenophobes that too many ignorant voters foolishly voted back in.
ReplyDeleteFortunately, these pseudo-fascists are clearly digging their own grave by annoying both the French and English and will be gone in due course.
Good riddance!
