I've had the same problem with some English Canadians, but you shouldn't generalize. There is good and bad everywhere. By the way, my wife is English Canadian (with Hungarians "undertones"), and she hardly ever get in situations like the one you're talking about. As far as I can see, French Canadians are generally very "Éaccepting" people. It doesn't mean there aren't any rotten apples in the basket, but they're the exception.pentaxian450 you are right, of course, I intend to see Mac. but me and my friends have had a "The French Hate me" joke running for nearly twenty years.....started on a bike trip, some where just inside the Quebec border, incredibly rude people at a restaurant...that joke has been running for so long now, it's like a bad habit.

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

I didn't mean to offend anybody either. It just seemed to me you had some kind of grudge against Quebecers (Mac excepted). If you feel like going slightly north of Montréal, I would be glad to show you the Laurentians. Maybe from, uhhh, 2000 feet high? It's a very nice view from up there.

pentaxian450 you are right, of course, I intend to see Mac. but me and my friends have had a "The French Hate me" joke running for nearly twenty years.....started on a bike trip, some where just inside the Quebec border, incredibly rude people at a restaurant...that joke has been running for so long now, it's like a bad habit.
I'm sure Quebec is beautiful. But the French hate me and want to kill me in my sleep.
