The Debt We Owe to Some of the Unsung Heroes of 1759
How many of us ever think why North America could have become French-speaking rather than English-speaking and the reasons why this did not happen?

Mount Royal Paints Over English Signs
About the painting over of English language signs in Mount Royal, if it is so offensive to have English signs in the province of Quebec by law, should not all the English-speaking provinces of Canada ban Joual (French patois) signs too? Surely what's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander too, and Quebec's Bill 101 or not, should have absolutely no bearing on the issue at all.

Double-Speak Pequiste Style
The fact that people in English-speaking Canada seem to think that they can overlook anything done by the Quebecois has got to end immediately.

Quebec's Quiet Revolution
The French defeat on September 13, 1759, has created a hatred that has lingered on for over two centuries in the minds of "les canadiens" (Quebecois).

Reasons As to Why Quebec Does Not Constitute a NATION
Since Gilles Duceppe has kept on speaking of Quebec as a nation, perhaps we need to look further into that issue. Otherwise there will continue to be a misconception in the minds of many Quebecois/Quebecoise that this is really so.

In Canada, There are Scores of Apologists for the Status Quo
Today, as usual I went to Tim Horton's today for my usual cuppa, and met a real estate agent who hails from Montreal, QC. I sat down and chatted with him. We went on the different subjects and finally got to talk about Canada's coinage. I mentioned to him that the Canadian Mint was issuing gold coins, which were only 14 carat gold, whereas the British Mint and the U.S. Mint did not permit their gold coins to drop below 18-20 carats. But As I was about it, pointed out that the 76 Olympic coins that were issued in sets of $5.00 and $10.00 denominations were not really silver after the first set was issued in 1976.

Quebecois Singer Claude Dubois' Rant Against the CBC
I just wonder when people outside of Quebec indeed from other communities are going to realize that they are really dealing with Sociopaths. The way from all the other communities has realized that it's not just the English-speaking communities that are being discriminated, but anyone who is not from the Metis Nation of Quebec.

Nationalism The Last Hiding Place of Hypocrites
The recent Quebec commission on reasonable accommodation has finally exposed the hidden under belly of Quebecois hypocrisy, which has been hidden for two and a half centuries. First it came in the form of the canadienne Catholic Church which passed off all forms of racism as a necessary requisite for the protection of the Race, culture, language and society that was as they made out under attack by those anglais (English), which really meant anyone that was not of Habitant stock.

"Very special Christmas 60 years ago"
That Christmas was one that I recall, was going to be one that I could not blot out of my memory, because while there was love and joy in the air, sadness was to overtake all this. I did not know that my mother had terminal illness and she never let on either.

Montreal's Racist Laws
I just could not get over the fact that the Quebecois and their Vichyanglais concitoyens are trying to pull the wool over our eyes again, but it is about 99% cotton.

The Revolt of the Ethnic Majority in Quebec
The last time I wrote on the Quebec situation and its aftermath, I had unknowingly predict how the race and linguistic situation would evolve in Quebec as time passed.

Quebec's Language Laws
When the town of Herouxville, Quebec, passed its own laws in violation of the Canadian Constitution and Charter of Rights and Freedoms, no one any paid any attention to what the real aims of these Quebecois were. Of course one has to dig down deep enough to get at the core. But believe you me, it's been right there all the time.
