you might be the exception to the rule, but most Québécois associate themselves culturally with France. and that is what French people (the ones in France) laugh about.
hey, be mad at the French for being snobs...not me (the poor american english speaking slob who gets a kick out of it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]) |
Someone has absolutely no fucking clue what Quebec culture is like. First of all we are also a very proud and nationalist people. Second thing we associate ourselves culturally more with the USA than France. We might be even more Americanized than English speaking Canadians.
You are correct tho, Murrican isn't English , Canadian french isn't France french. As for french people from France laughing about us for looking up to them ...it actually goes both ways. We have an expression for them here that translates to : those damned french men. Laughing at France is something we share with our neighbors from the south.
Btw why don't you try speaking two languages country boy...and don't go all Una cerveza por favor on me because you know the crushing majority of your countrymen do not speak more than 1 language and i bet you dont either since jive or redneck don't count as languages.
