Trekn, French Canadians are PROUD of who they are, and they make a supreme effort to preserve their language and culture despite your opinion regarding what the point of that may be... That they want to separate from Canada is, IMHO, a dire mistake, one whose seed was planted decades ago by our very own De Gaulle, who was, I believe, merely trying to raise a bit of pride.
I cannot express to you how strange their pronounciation sounds to me, tho.... Rather the way Austrailans sound to you. And what is it with the flannel? Fashion suicide, bien evident.
Two comments:
One, sorry, but you're wrong. English was easy to learn. The trick is, to learn it as an adult. Trying to learn it as a child in your school system is futile.
Two, before you denigrate an entire culture or population, you should ask yourself whether you are truly "superior" enough to pass judgement. In your profile, you locate yourself in Michigan. I'm afraid that isn't "superior" enough. Je vais rire, mon pauvre petit!
