Where is that again? Because I mentioned that your kids are not allowed to learn English, that makes me hate French?

My (hypotethical) kids are not disallowed to learn french. You, however, imply that to be "someone" or to be able to achieve "something", being french-only won't cut it.
That makes you hate french, boy.

Does that mean that my driver’s permit makes me hate the environment?

It means you hate the bugs that squish on your windshied.

If I use an elevator I am anti-healthcare?

It means you are anti-stairs.

With your logic the whole continent of North America must despise the French, otherwise they would have been clamouring to open French language schools all across the U.S and western Canada.

Now that you mention it, yes, the anglo-saxons have a very long track record of despising the french, yes.

I see the vile contempt they have. Once again the light you have shone has taken me out of the darkness of hatred. I am enlightened.

Don't forget to turn off the bulb after you leave; leave some light for others, you pigopolist.

She seemed ok in a radio interview I heard. Better grammar than me in french!

Even though I have never for a second said I have a hatred of French. 

You said it yourself right there:

Ask your provincial leaders why you can’t have your kid learning English in school so that maybe one day they may get a chance to see that there are opportunities elsewhere. Why are you choking off the youth, your children? Who would do such a terrible thing to a child? Who wants to see there own children held back while the world opens up to others? Stop pointing the finger outwards.

Who is this guy and why does he think francophones never vote Liberal?

Me? I never though that for a second. The pissous do vote liberal, they think that only the english can run the show. And the vendus, too, vote liberal, because they know that scumbags will never get it as easy as now in a truly french country, when Québec "separates".

Take a look at the West Island, the so-called English bastion, which even thirty years ago was at least half-french. Now you can’t even find any anglophones working at Fairview Pointe Claire, but the west is still a block of red votes.

That's because working in a store, serving the public, is beneath the dignity of the english nobility.

Jean. It seems that you have an axe to grind and many years of anger have built up. Learn to let go and live a little. As a Canadian born child of immigrants I could have a huge chip on my shoulder of how I have been mocked by the French citizens of this province. Don’t ever dare to mix up the masculine or feminine of a noun when you speak or speak in the wrong tense when you are learning the language. The guffaws, the jeers, the pointing of the fingers and the mocking of my trying to learn French as a kid have left me with terrible memories too.

Awwww, poor little dear sweetheart. You should have gone to Toronto where the kids there are well behaved and don't make fun of immigrants trying to learn english...

But I have gotten past the small minds and have gotten ahead. Walk a mile in our shoes. Walk around as an “ethnie”.

Why should I do? Why should I care? After all, it's the "ethnies" who have come here; they're the ones who have to adapt and adjust. We do our part: we welcome you here, you do your part: you adapt. It's simple, fair and square, and that's the way it works in every single country in the world. Why should we make a special case here?

Whatever has happened to you was done by the hands of your own brothers, how many provincial leaders do you know that have not been Francophones? They are the ones that have kept you down, go to your local church and ask them why they kept you down.

The church did that to keep power over us, for the benefit of the english who were spared to have to compete against french businessmen. Look for my posts elsewhere here on this site, you'll see what I mean.

Ask your provincial leaders why you can’t have your kid learning English in school so that maybe one day they may get a chance to see that there are opportunities elsewhere. Why are you choking off the youth, your children? Who would do such a terrible thing to a child? Who wants to see there own children held back while the world opens up to others? Stop pointing the finger outwards. How many provincial leaders’ children are being sent to private schools where English is being taught? That is o.k drink the kool-aid.

You are a real english; the federal kool-aid has worked fine on you. Can't you see that you are nothing but a tool used to minorize the french??? You are the fool in the whole story; you're being used by the english against us. The english could not care less about you, as long as you do their bidding, which is to minorize the french.
What you are saying here is that "french=bad, english=good". Nothing else.
This is the reason why I hammer hard on you, you are the ennemy to shoot down.

Maria Frenglish is the language of Montreal. Unless a law was passed to make Montreal a French city. It may be so, but it is funny when people are asked to invest in Montreal all the publicity is mentioning how we are a bilingual city.

Money may try to live in it's little magical wonder-word and make wish the french does not exist in Montréal, this is not the case at all.
Money cannot change the reality that the english are but a tiny minority in the second largest french city in the world.
You insistence upon making yourself believe the opposite only shows that you cannot be bothered with the french, and are utterly unwilling to even learn the language.

Are we lying to potential investors? Should the truth come out louder and maybe investors should think twice before putting money into our economy.

Yes, we do not need investors who cannot see reality. What we need is investors who will respect the majority. And History has shown that we are more than willing to pay the price for that in increased poverty thanks to economic reprisals from investors who only want to destroy the french fact.
If you want to live in english, take your money and run. We don't want people like you who work overtime to destroy our culture by refusing to accept it.

Stop speak out of both sides of your mouths. Quebecois is not a language as much as the Quebecois are a nation and a people.

In case you haven't noticed, we speak french, not "québécois". There is no such thing as "québécois" language anymore than there is belgian or swiss.

The aboriginal are a people we are all descendants of immigrants and this plot of land belongs to all of us as Canadians.

Ah, yes, the "rockies is ours" argument. Yadda, yadda, yadda. I think you'll be much happier in Markham or in Mississauga than in Montréal.

Anyway the language debate has no place in municipal politics

So why do the english make a fuss about Harel not being bilingual??? For the french, that's a non-issue. Could it be that the english are unwilling to learn french and demand that other people learn english instead?

all we need from these guys is paved streets, working subways, garbage picked up, lit parks and sewers not backing up. It isn’t glamourous but someone needs to do the grunt work to keep the engine running. Right now with this constant language debate the engine is belching out toxic fumes.

Yes, toxic fumes that may very well kill the federal plot to minorize the french by having immigrants become english instead of french, like you seem to have done pretty well...

Now you can't even find any anglophones working at Fairview Pointe Claire, but the west is still a block of red votes.

Respectfully, I’m pretty sure the STM’s financing is back to the level it was at before the former Vision Montreal administration cut it to the bone. The City’s contribution to the STM is 332 M$ in 2009, an increase of almost 40%. In addition, the City sent a check of almost 40M$ to the Agnece métropolitaine de transport.

Oh? Then why isn't the level of service back where it was before it was gutted by Géranium Pommier???

I’m a Projet Montréal supporter (even though their name isn’t translated into Italian, Steve) but don’t see any reason for gratuitous sexism such as referring to Mme Harel as “The Bitch”. Personally, I think she was right about the one island, one city mergers, and even if you disagree with that it is no reason to utter sexist insults.

The use of the word "bitch" is certainly not implied as a sexist, but as a mere derogatory (like when I call Drapeau a "chien" ["dog", for the french-impaired]). Had I written "chienne" in french, it would not have been a sexist remark. This is the problem with the french-impaired immigrants who have dutifully learned english, as the federal government told them (in order to minorize the french), they do not understand the subtle features of the language of the majority of the people here (yes, Maria, this is directly aimed at you: you have drank the federal government kool-aid and have becomed an english and thus, you reject the french).
Yes, Harel had the great fortune to **DO** the forced mergers (this is hardly visionary, though, because that should have been done 50 years ago); her problem is that she took the party founded by Géranium Pommier, and that came with the heavy moronic baggage that are the city councillors, and those are the main threat posed by the party, thanks to their utter pettyness and general cluelessness. I do not believe that one person, however great (Harel is great: after all, she is a separatist péquiste) can reform 80 petty morons (mostly little merchants).

Vahan, Frenglish isn't a language. On the 80, you'll encounter people speaking dozens of languages, but that doesn't negate the fact that Montréal is a French-speaking city, any more than the fact that I'm responding to you in English does. Lots of languages are spoken in Toronto as well. Idem London and Paris, or any major, cosmopolitan city.
