And let's not forget the Academy Award nominated "Blame IT On Canada". South Park has done so much for my people.

I was on the Red Green show once. We had a fine meeting at Possom lodge and I almost knocked over Red.

Very, very cool.
 
I want to move to Possum Lake, but I can't seem to find it on any map. It's in your home province, right?
 
Quando omni flunkus moritati !

I have been waiting for someone, anyone, to do a parody of American Woman called Canadian Woman. Could have some real fun with that!
 
Just to show some diversity, here's a joke I was told while on a business trip in Maine. I was staying in Millinocket, just down the road a piece from Medford. Logging towns. Millinocket has the mall (4 stores and a bowling alley). Between the 2 towns is a dilapidated shack that is home to the only strip club in Maine, stocked with dancers who can no longer make any money in Boston. Local women refuse to pay for anything at the mall with singles (that's all the strippers manage). Millinocket and Medford are not big fans of each other.
 
So the joke:
 
How do you tell the difference between a moose and a woman from Medford?
 
The plaid jacket.
 
Bada boom.
 
If it weren't for curling, I'd LOVE Canada. Hockey! Rush! Triumph! The Guess Who! What's not to like?

We  were just in Quebec...a great place. But don't say hello, always say Bonjour. They don't like hello. We walked all the way to to the fort on the hill.
 






 
 
 

Yeah, Quebec City is freaking gorgeous. They don't dig the anglo squareheads too much though. Fortunately, even though I can hardly speak French at all, due to my ultra frenchie family (and being forced into french schools as a kid) my accent is perfect.
 
Used to piss off my travelling companion who spoke impeccable french but had a WICKED anglo accent. She did all the translating but because I had the accent (and the frenchie look) I got all the respect... even though I could barely communicate.
 
lulzity... she was a twat anyway.

You want Canadian ??  Does not get more Canadian than this.  

 
I'm shocked I tell you!  Shocked! 

I lived in Quebec City for practically 10 years. I moved there reluctantly, but I quickly fell in love with the city and met my best friends ever there. On the whole though, I am usually at odds with the people of Quebec. It's a very particular community that really stands out in the province, in terms of politics and economics and mentalities.
 
But the city itself is the only place I sometimes miss.

In most of Quebec I'd get a touch of rudeness from SOME people due to being anglo but with most folks it was just some good natured ribbing (which I gave back and all was cool and fun and beers were had and all that good stuff).
 
In QC though... yeah man. There is some serious isolationist, separatist, anti English snobbery at best and outright hatred at worst. Really aside from people from OTHER parts of Quebec visting the city no one there really wanted anything to do with me.
 
It really came across like the residents consider the city to be part of France instead of Quebec and if you weren't pure "Francais" you were garbage. Driving around with Ontario plates and a pasty English girl? Hoooo boy. Totes rudeness.
 
I still loved every minute of it though. Soooo much history and old city is just freaking amazing. It really does feel like being in Europe. The few times I was there I took every opportunity to wander around all by my lonesome and the one time I spent an afternoon walking the perimiter of the entire old city on the hill (past all the cannons, through the park, through the walls/plains, etc).
 
Gatdamned what a cool place. Nowhere else like it in Canada.

When we watched that documentary and I saw that he was putting a big Canada sticker on his vehicle, my first thought was: Oh my, watch out when you reach Quebec.
 
Part of that historical roots of that hostility towards anglophones is brought to light in the movie. And as I said before, we're brought up into this mentality from the cradle onwards. Some of these reasons are actually valid, historically. But no so much nowadays.
 
It wasn't until I left Quebec and Canada for a while that I could gain perspective. Otherwise, there are so many things that are just embedded into your way of thinking and your every day life that it's practically impossible to see things objectively.
 
I eventually came to the conclusion that our identity is based on resentment, the notion that we aren't Canadian, and the fact that we refuse to speak english. And that twisted notion that we are the good guys since we lost the war... 
 
I'm actually convinced that the day Quebec would gain its independence would mean the end of Quebec - being sovereign is the worst thing that could happen to them because the struggle for sovereignty is at the core of what defines my people.
