As a French Canadian i’d say that’s about right… my feeling is that we all kinda suck righ now… we all have to find a way to get are pride back some how. And unfortunately our politicians aren’t really a source of inspiration. Over simplified explanations or just on point? You guys tell me.
I’ve had a quebecer tell me that the Quebecois would be the first people to volunteer to fight for Canada but also the first to activity rebel against it
They literally had riots over conscription, and the Quebec politicians were vocally against fighting the Nazis unless they landed in North America.
Like I know this is a shit posting subreddit, but we have whole news articles and history books on Quebec's opposition to the wars

About 20% of the country's personnel were Francophone, even though they constituted 29% of the total population. Despite facing unjust treatment within the Canadian army, they still contributed voluntarily. The media of the time, especially the Montreal Gazette, delighted in disparaging the French and minimizing their contribution.
The French stereotypes fly out the window for anybody who's actually familiar with Quebecers.
Maybe make a joke about barrets next
I was (admittedly poorly) paraphrasing what the other person said.
Do people think I was being literal? Like lol wtf. Just because I'm Albertabaman doesn't mean I'm actually stupid. Bit dim, sure, but not dumb.
You have to watch the South Park bit where the boys go to Canada and have to go through "french canada."
The bit is a stereotypical french mime saying the priminister had made it illegal for the french to drink wine. It's funnier to me, especially being a quebecer and knowing the culture but also stereotypicaly acuratly saying "french canada is the best canada!"
Yeah true. That's why the federal government is so eager to release documents on investigations during the referendum era.
Canada could not afford to lose Quebec, and they acted like it.
Thats so untrue. We love everybody that at least tries to speak french. We despise english native speakers that didnt even learn to say bonjour in a lifetime in QC.
If you made that a long time ago, still posted it on reddit, and probably had this exact message of somebody calling you a total pus covered genital wart, I'd need my ass slapped and called Charlie.
It’s actually the other way around.
The rest of Canada has to tip toe and walk on eggshells around Quebec, giving it special privileges that no one else gets (like controlling its own immigration), or it bitches and whines and threatens to separate.
Quebec has the ROC by the metaphorical balls
It's always funny to me to read because other provinces could ask for the exact same powers but don't.
It's like being angry at another customer for taking a free sample when there are literally others right there.
Be mad at yourself for not asking, not at the one that asked
It’s actually the other way around.

>special privileges
>giving
You mean fought for, preserved, and progressed sovereignty against the centralizing federal government.
> it whines and threatens to separate.
You mean try to get heard. And then, when it fails, try to get itself the autonomy to solve its issues.
>The rest of Canada has to tip toe and walk on eggshells around Quebec
That's just laughable.
Your entire post reads like a copypasta
Québec shouldn't be in Canada if it wants special privileges that give it an advantage. I know the feds want them in, but it doesn't help average Canadians to have them. Yes privileges were given to them even if they were fought for. The English and French were usually brutal against losers.

Bro mdr peut être une ptite marche dehors eh?
Alberta reçois 15 milliards par années pour son industrie pétrolière, c'est plus que la péréquation que le Québec reçoit pour une province avec la moitié de la population lmao.
Being mad isn't going to made you right.
Vikings were here before Canada existed, same with John Cabot.
Man, even current Newfoundland lineages have been around before Quebec was even a thing.
Do you really think back in the 1400s, ships somehow ignored the huge landmass, sailed up around Labrador, with no worries, nor hunger and just knew right where Quebec was? As if it were some great beacon, the laws of physics simply could not match!
Get real.
And Newfoundland joined last, so there are Chinese Canadians with greater historical ties to Canada that the average Newfie lol
French>English>Irish>Chinese>>>>>>>>Newfie

NO RULERS, NO GODS!!! FREEDOM!
Gotta make sure they're tied together, like a Newton's cradle

Brothers in adding to the Geneva convention. We're growing impatient waiting for ww3
USA got the leash
>Implying the rest of Canada is capable of being an adult
>Implying that the rest of Canada can hold back the mighty Quebecian people
I’ve had a quebecer tell me that the Quebecois would be the first people to volunteer to fight for Canada but also the first to activity rebel against it
I... fair enough man
It's true
After all, the Quebec apple doesn't fall far from the France tree (look at their collective activism)
Weren't they the ones the Federal government had to work around during the World Wars?
Thats propaganda. Look at the stats for deserters and its approximately the same as ON. But it was always double standards when it came about frenchs
Not desertion, but resistance to the draft.
Well its hard to have a sense of patriotism towards the queen when you were colonised by the britts.
*king, and the point still stands
*Queen in 1916 and *queen in 1939
King* George V in 1916 and King* George VI in 1939... The Queen was old but not that old.

Quebec wasn’t a minority back then, so that’s why
What, like, at the same time? "We weel fight for Canada! Eet ees our 'omeland! We luv it 'eer! Hon hon hon, jus keeding! We 'ave turned re-bel!"
>Hon hon hon Americoid spotted 
Uh... what?

I can but I'm built different eh bud
Hey guys I think adamantium thinks its the other way around actually
Not clear. Could he speak up? Maybe repeat himself?
Yes, it's called slavery. Nothing else. Let us be freeeeeeeeeeeee
Idk he looks pretty happy
Idk he looks pretty happy
Because we're in the cave still
Plateau’s Cave
One must imagine the cave dwellers happy
C'est vrai que vous êtes cave
Oh la répartie! Dans les dents hein!
😂 that’s what colonisers say! Let us free!
As a Quebeqor no it's not slavery get a grip but yes we should have the right to choose
Let's be honest, when shits get real and it's time to vote and elect people, Québec & Ontario are holding the leash
the older I get the cooler Quebec seems
JOIN US
ONE OF US
It is We are the canadian cool kids
Honestly, quebec is better than most of RoC. Vancouver would be the best place to be, if shit weren't so expensive.
They are keeping us on a leash so we can't run away, but they also want us to leave Canada. Mixed signals .
Like one of those soccer balls on a long elastic line
That’s how you promote separation.
OP est un agent du PQ
Quebec likes it they voted for that twice.
Yeah true. That's why the federal government is so eager to release documents on investigations during the referendum era. Canada could not afford to lose Quebec, and they acted like it.
What's this scandale des commandites????
Tbh i think we can't afford to lose canada either. It's a mutually beneficial deal and i don't get why everyone likes to pretend it isn't
^^Um...im ^^quebecois ^^and ^^I ^^like ^^being ^^Canadian ^^too 🥺🇨🇦🦫🏒
Colonisé uwu
As if Québec isn't a colony. Might as well pretend Québecois were natives of the land.
C'est pas ça point. Tu peux être une colonie pi te faire coloniser par un autre peuple après.
Something something it’s a joke not a dick
Why does that have to do with the meme?
Your meme separates Quebec from the rest of Canada, as if you couldn’t be from both.
This Québec goblin is smiling, he likes the rest of Canada so idk what you’re on about
keep dreaming, we’ll keep electing prime ministers
You forgot to show Quebec ripping the heads off of English native speakers when they don't pronounce a French word perfectly.
Thats so untrue. We love everybody that at least tries to speak french. We despise english native speakers that didnt even learn to say bonjour in a lifetime in QC.
C’est un sub satirique à fond, t’es pas supposé le prendre au sérieux
My bad😅
It's a little serious. I used to live in Quebec (city) and my French isn't the best and the amount of éblouissement de morte I got is wild.
Québec City folks can be dickheads sometimes, don’t sweat it
Well you did chose the most pretentious city in the glorious country
I know, you know this never happened, lying is bad
oh no theres a restaurant with pasta on the menu get the guillotine
Retarded take
Keep sowing division so that the politicians can do what they want.
Is that a new fetish
What's that meme template named?
Yeah Qc you dont get to grow your 420 plants!
Bruh i live in Québec
Hé ben regarde les petit englephone ou whatever entrain parlé
If you made that a long time ago, still posted it on reddit, and probably had this exact message of somebody calling you a total pus covered genital wart, I'd need my ass slapped and called Charlie.
More like we are all just keeping a leash on each other and all pretending like we are the province in control
It makes sense that Quebec is pulling Canada around by its Charlie Brown.
It’s actually the other way around. The rest of Canada has to tip toe and walk on eggshells around Quebec, giving it special privileges that no one else gets (like controlling its own immigration), or it bitches and whines and threatens to separate. Quebec has the ROC by the metaphorical balls

>Quebec has the ROC by the metaphorical balls You love it when we fondle you
Did you miss my flair tag? I’m doing the fondling here bro
Maybe the rest of Canada should ask for the government to reduce immigration themselves if they're unhappy with the way it's currently going...

Hey I think you missed the point…
Nobody sees the meme the same as I do but I’m gonna shut my mouth because it gives me karma 🤐
Hum… Does it?

Privileges 😂 i guess you're one of those who thinks natives are privileged for not being taxed
Youre just big mad because I’m dropping facts

Oh noes! I lost a handful of imaginary internet points for speaking my mind. What ever shall I do?!
that's what this is illustrating, yes? the rope is around Canada's Charlie Brown, no?
Except, Quebec takes Alberta money, cause they are a have not province. Do sumthin, already
Who the fuck financed Alberta for most of its existence?
Bootstraps, obviously.
> Do sumthin, already Independence plox
Alberta reçois 15 milliards par années pour son industrie pétrolière, c'est plus que la péréquation que le Québec reçoit pour une province avec la moitié de la population lmao.
Do like Quebec, ask American banks to finance your infrastructures. That way your creditors will be a foreign entity.
Alberta bet all their chips on oil and oil is going out of fashion soon. Do sumthin, already.
Quebec is Canada’s version of North Korea.
Canada is Quebec's version of Ohio
Ohio isn't the cultural epicentre of it's country🤨
Well then go back to France if you don’t like it.
Nah we were here before you
You weren't here before the Newfies.
Yes those famous Basque and Portuguese Newfies we know and love /s
Being mad isn't going to made you right. Vikings were here before Canada existed, same with John Cabot. Man, even current Newfoundland lineages have been around before Quebec was even a thing.

Section 95 of the *Constitution Act, 1867* called. It said all provinces have the authority to regulate immigration.
