i get the same attitude in chinatown in the middle of the night from drunk old women yelling about how i cant speak chinese heck i get that in chinese restaurants too then i have to speak chinese and they act totally differently
what im saying is happens everywhere from everyone
I've been working at the airport all summer. Met at least 100 quebecers .. not a single one was nice. They all speak english but try to force you to speak french (fuque that, all I know how to say is est-ce que je peaux allez au toilettes mademoisselle?) and complain about the price of EVERYTHING.
I have worked in Ottawa on the Gatineau Quebec side and French speaking people are usually pretty nice. Also been to Montreal numerous times and didn't have a bad experience.
I didn't know any French (almost failed French 8 in HS) and survived in Montreal. I even had a conversation with a limited English speaking man at the Montreal Impact game about his engineering consulting firm!
Ignorant people are everywhere. Try Mainlander vs. Hongers.
One of my HS friends was in french immersion. She told me when she went over to quebec and tried to converse with a waiter or something, the waiter stopped her b/c he thought her french accent sounded bad. Pretty rude if you ask me.

i had similar experiences in quebec
at rivere du loup, tried to order mcdonalds but only to find nobody spoke english. even the younger staffs can't speak a single word of english.
then there was quebec national day, i was at dt Quebec City with a group of chinese frdz, we were taunted by many groups of hooligans. we were lucky to escape to a nearby hotel to seek protection. needless to say, im never gonna return again. worst experience in canada.
In Montreal everyone is pretty good, outside of it their all fucking clowns
We went to a donut/ truck stop about 2 hours outside of Montreal when we were there the old women behind the counter would barely acknowledge us for speaking English so when it came to pay and the dumb bitch had her back turned to me for like a minute talking to her colleague I just threw all the money on the ground behind the counter and walked out
But then right next store we met a French coors light rep that hooked us up huge with beer, so some good with the bad lol
Four years ago I had the opportunity to move to Quebec. My job was going to give me a raise, set me up in a place, and pay all of my moving expenses to go out there.
They moved my department, found a new department head, and the people that went out there from here hated it so much they immediately wanted to come home.
Bullet dodged

French speaking guy in the video is racist for sure.
It can be said for the other way for the english speaking guy.
Cause as far as I'm concerned English and French are two official languages in Canada. There is no cardinal rule that you must speak French in Montreal / Quebec.

Some ignorant french people expect all english speaking Canadians to speak french to cater to them,yet even though they know how to speak english,they refuse to speak it to anyone that speaks english to them.
I really hope quebec splits,the rest of Canada is better off without these winey crybabies.
