Ugh. Suspects' names are Alexandre Bissonnette and Mohamed Khadir.
 
what kind of intolerant nation is it up there.
 
Fokkin' right-wing savages in QC City.
 
No. Quebec City as a whole is more pro-Canada than the rest of the French-speaking province. They're very anti-Montreal and anti-immigration though. Odd group of people.
 
I always thought Quebec City were hard core Frenchies until a year or so ago. I'd love to vsit the place now. I hear it's a very nice city.

Why is QC anti-Montreal?
 
QC City is hardcore right-wing Frenchies. They have the same attitude towards Montreal that old stock, suburban Anglo-Canadians generally have towards Toronto. They hate the cosmopolitan, latte-sipping, left-wing "elite" aspect of it.

Both the wife's family and mine are working-class and suburban/rural. They'd get along great if they were able to talk to each other.
 
More or less. She speaks French slowly, like John Kerry.

 
Did she speak frenchie before you met her or is this the result of your union?
 
Pre-Matty. She did French immersion in Owen Sound and then moved to Montreal for her PhD.

She laments the fact that I don't sound like a typical Quebecer. (I avoid joual unless I'm with my aunts and uncles.)
