I’m sorry about that attitude — those people definitely don’t represent us well.
Most Quebecers are warm and fun, not haughty.
What I’ve seen myself, especially in Montreal and the surrounding areas, is that a lot of people switch to English automatically.
Anyway, have a good day.

I’m not running down any province.
I was born here.
I actually said the opposite: I disagree with Quebec blocking projects from Alberta, and I think we could treat Alberta better. Alberta contributes a lot through equalization — that’s just a fact.
No hate on my side. Just wishing for better cooperation between provinces.

@backatchoo @Adriennefu8c6m @MeltingCA Thanks for the clarification — no offense taken.😊
With over half of Quebecers able to hold a conversation in English (51.7 % according to the 2021 census), it really sounds like you just had a string of unlucky encounters.

[Asking for a friend @onlyasking25]

Most of us speak English and work with both languages every day.
Speaking English with people outside Quebec has never been a problem. But within our own province, we prefer to speak French among ourselves — just as people in Alberta prefer English among themselves.
I travel a lot to PEI and never try to force French on anyone. Interestingly, some people there actually want to speak French with me once they hear my accent.
I also understand that some people may resent us because we block certain projects (like the gas pipeline from Alberta). Personally, I disagree with blocking those projects, and I think it was a mistake to refuse oil development on Anticosti. Alberta contributes a great deal through equalization — that’s a fact.
But please don’t generalize. There are idiots in every language and every province. That’s just how it is.
Have you actually spent time in Quebec, or is this just based on what you’ve heard? If you have experience there, I apologize — rude people exist everywhere, and they shouldn’t be taken as the standard.

No we just want to speak our birth language and separate religion and politic in our province never want to dictate what you do in yours. But maybe it’s hard to compute it’s never be about English people have to talk French but let us talk in French in our province without being told to speaking white.

@tokenhiphop Pffff! You did a collab with Ren

Yes, floor-crossing is completely legal in Canada — MPs are elected as individuals, not as party property.
But there’s a huge difference between a single MP voluntarily switching sides and a Prime Minister’s Office actively recruiting and courting multiple opposition MPs to manufacture a majority without an election.
If Stephen Harper had systematically poached Liberal and NDP members to flip his minority into a majority, you’d have called it exactly what it is: a power grab dressed up as procedure.
That’s not how our democracy is supposed to work — and it shouldn’t be fine just because it’s your team doing it this time

Ex: Media cuts Trump's "bloodbath" quote (economic threat, not violence) → Grok flags it live if >10k views. Integrates user feedback ("Hey Grok, you're off!") to self-adjust. Prioritizes high-impact stuff (politics, health), skips spam.

@catturd2 Imagine we flip the situation, does it still feel like a moment of connection?

@elonmusk I vote with my ID, a simple and secure process: verification, a check on a list, reliable paper ballots, quick and secure results. It’s crazy that the USA, the greatest power, doesn’t already have these rules in place.
