  1. Yes, that's all I was saying (without as much detail). I hope he hears it better from you than me.
  2. What difference does it make if the French in France hear a Canadian or US accent in a thread about Montreal, Quebec? You are the only one throwing insults.
  3. I'm not taking the bait of the pointless insult. I'm more interested in solving a misunderstanding. Your first message was commenting about Montreal/Quebec French and now your talking about France. I don't know about France (that you mention in your last post), I was commenting on Quebec (in your first post). Quebec French and France French are quite different, accent and vocabulary - which you probably know given you say you speak French. There is no "American French" in Quebec, which is what your first message said. And Quebec IS a different culture, with a distinct history, language and legal code from the rest of Canada.
  4. Canadian French in Quebec is mostly a first language - and there is no English accent, whether that be Canadian or USA. So it's not "American French." In terms of Quebecois not being able to pick out accents between their fellow English Canadians and foreigners (such as USA) … that's a grand and dumb statement. There is a high percentage of Quebecers that are bilingual
  5. They're Canadians speaking Canadian French. What is American French? Are you thinking Louisiana Patois?
  6. This one made me laugh. The girl needs to get out of Celebration, Florida and join the real world.
  7. please stop with the Wikipedia - we are all on-line
  8. San Gimignano sounds really great. Have you ever been back?
  9. I saw a review from one person on that link. Was there more than that?
  10. In BC, starting on January 1, 2018, PReP has been made available to high-risk groups for free. It's part of prevention. Aim is to have 5,000 high risk individuals on PReP, part of the public health strategy to have the HIV infection rate reduced by 85% by 2020.
  11. Very little crime in Cuba, probably safer than the USA
  12. People that believe in miracles, shouldn't use electricity, cause that's science
  13. You should really meet him in person
  14. Not within walking distance for sure, it's a fairly direct Metro connection though, as is a lot of the City, but then I didn't bring this up anyway.
  15. Didn't a bunch quit and go on to other things around then also - jobs, school etc.?
  16. In honour of Canada Day and the Mexican election day - it's probably a good day to remember this news story: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/construction-worker-flies-mexican-flag-from-roof-of-trump-tower-in-vancouver-1.3518991
  17. There will be fireworks tonight. They will not be aimed at the White House. That was the BRITISH … haha
  18. I saw that photo. Are you sure it's the shirt you want?
