Jw how non-French Canadians usually feel about the French Canadian community. Is there a strong sense of national solidarity? Seems like we never hear about Canadian sociocultural issues ya know

I have nothing against them. Only thing I was angsty about was having to learn French in school.

Can you elaborate about your experience or things you hear other Canadians say? This is something I honestly don't know anything about

In general they're definitely stereotyped as arrogant people with poor manners who think the world revolves around them with a permanent victim complex.

Of the small number I've met in my life there was one who fit this description perfectly. Like I'll never forget the day he went on a 10 minute rant about how our company (he was a coworker) was disrespecting him because the automated telephone system we had to call for tech problems started with "Dial 1 for English, Dial 2 for French". He was genuinely pissed that French was 2.

Generally speaking, they're viewed as rude people who don't like anyone who isn't French like them. Of course, not all of them are like that, I've known some Quebecois people who were very nice, but I've been to Quebec multiple times, and if you don't speak French or if you have Ontario license plates, you'll get at least a few people who will be ill-disposed towards you. I knew a guy who went on vacation to Cuba, and they ran into some Quebecois people there who wouldn't give him the time of day, until he started speaking in French to them and then suddenly they became rather friendly. His French was certainly not perfect, but I think they just appreciated the effort to speak to them in their first language.

It's pretty fucked up how Quebec discriminates against religious minorities and the Canadian government doesn't do shit about it.

Like I thought Canada was supposed to be a progressive country.

On Monday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said no one should lose their job because of their religion but refused to intervene, saying he didnt want to create a fight between Quebec and the federal government.

So then how do French Canadians view French people? Do they see them as like "from the motherland" ?
