"Then you don't have much of an imagination. The long and deep history of Quebec racism is well-documented. The latest iteration happened only last week with the head of the PQ whining about not being able to order an imaginary bagel en français.
yvo, i didn't had the intention to jump in this debate, but you ask this question.........you complain a lot in the past about Quebec and french people ....i mean a lot.....ok?
Sure I do, when it is directed at me, or others.
Excuse me for not eating my bagel and squaw candy, and shutting up. I am not complaining about Quebecers and francophones. I am complaining about racists and bigots who happen to be francophones living in Quebec. Quebec, like Germany, has a long and unfortunate history. We have moved past it for the most part, apart from anachronisms like referendum-losing politicians muttering racial epithets, and neo-bigots, who always spring up. Hell, English Canada didn't/doesn't do much better, we had slavery here, we've seen and see prejudice and bigotry work against natives, francophones, anglophones, pretty much every ethnicity. That's the way ignorance works.
Doesn't mean for one minute I won't speak out against it under any guise it appears. But to say i cry about it at every corner - well, only if it appears at every corner. Why wouldn't you do the same? Racism, prejudice are things to be decried. They always end badly. You need only look at the Hutus and the Tutsis, still at war to see where crap like this leads.
How my comments could be taken as stereotypes, given the specificities I raised is inane.
