I do get a good laugh about the Quebecois sometimes, but then I remember that I don\'t give a damn what happens up there.  :)

If they want to retain their primitive backward economy by forcing every company to do business in two languages, that\'s up to them.

As an English speaking Canadian, I will chime in but once into this.

I respect that quebec wants to preserve it\'s language and heratige.  It\'s true that English is slowly taking over there.  However, I do sometimes get upset when they go too far.  Banning english on signs and ads for instance.  I have a feeling that at this point most of us don\'t really care what they do inside quebec though... as long as their overzealous prosecution of English stays there.
