Dominic, please understand that this is not directed at you unless you are a supporter of Les Separatists.
Oh boy, now here is a topic where I am indisputably qualified to comment with pure and unadulterated hatred. While not directed at any particular individual but rather an entire "community", hatred is exactly what I harbour. That community is not the french speaking inhabitant of Quebec but rather the arrogant, self important, hypicritical hard core separatist legions.
My sir name is Rodrigue. To this day I have direct blood relatives all over north america. From the east coast to the west coast and from the far north of Canada to the Bayou country of Louisianna but the majority are in Quebec, Vermont and New Hampshire. We have spread far and wide
My father's family emmigrated from Portugal in the 1400's to France and then via the not yet USA to "New France" which became Quebec in 1642 so yes, we do have a little experience with the Quebecois.
My dad and uncle and one of four aunts left La Belle Province in 1949 to make a better life for themselves. They did not speak one word of English when they arrived in Toronto. Why? because speaking English in school was against the rules and grounds for severe corporal punishment at the hands of the Priests and Nuns who ran the schools.
Myself and my sibblings and cousins are the first generation on non primarily French speakers in our immediate family. Matter of fact, outside of ordering a beer and some poutine, I am pretty much French illiterate.
Quebec has to be one of if not THE most racist, bigotted and hypocritcal places on the planet earth. They scream out for respect all the while disrespecting those who call them countrymen. They enact laws FORCING english speaking families to send their children to French only schools. They enact laws that make English signs illegal in public.
They cry discrimination while discriminating against all things not French.
The entire concept of "Pure Wool" Quebecois makes my father want to puke.
As he said to me many times whist listening to the great Quebecer Treasonous Azzhat Lucien "One Legger" Bouchard rattle on about the "Pure French " culture and how being their own country was their devine destiny. "That piece of chit should be tried for treason and shot immediately". "Pure French? is he kidding. Who does he think the the original French settlers and explorers were screwing? Did they bring dainty French ladies with them from Europe? No, they screwed Natives, wild life or each other!" "Pure as the driven chit at the bottom of the pile outside the barn " he would say
The fact that as a result of having Prime Minister after Prime Minister from Quebec, we now have a province consisting of 20% of the populace holding the other 80% of the country hostage and always crying about the wrongs done to them is a national disgrace.
The fact that the Bloc Quebecois exists is a disgrace. The fact they are allowed to hold seats in OUR FEDERAL PARLIMENT is a disgrace.
The fact that they are relected every time we have an election shows the total disdain the majority of Quebecers have for the rest of OUR great country.
The only reason "they" voted to stay in Canada was because without "US", they would be financially ruined within one year. Thats right, the Great Canadian Taxpayer TEET would run dry. No more money for the squeaky wheel separatists.
No sir, I have NO patience for Les Separitistes, none. I would much perfer to see them lined up and shot as the treasonous bastards that they truely are. Even those that I call members of my own family that have chosen to join their ranks.
