    I loved the last quote.

    "French is the official language in Quebec, the national language, with all due respect to the English-speaking minority," he said.

    Go fuck yourself, honestly. The entire "official" (business, public signs, anything else) province of Quebec is French, and any attempt of real bilingualism in Quebec falls through because of cranky, easily offended pussies like you. And now, you can't have two fucking English singing bands because "French should take priority".

    This is what happens when we continue to give in to Quebec. They will take more and more, push harder and harder. Always testing the boundaries. Their intolerance is an embarassment.

    They see our tolerance as a sign to push harder.

    Only in Canada would anybody (IE Quebec) get away with this shit. Imagine if Ontario decided to do something similar and ban French from Canada Day celebrations, the proverbial shit would hit the fan no doubt

    Well I don't agree with the arrogant snot reference, but I do agree its a bit overboard. Its kind of like the torys.. throw a party but only invite yourselves.
