National Bank vows to beef up French after Quebec TV star suggests boycott

Seems the NDP has turned into the new Bloc Quebecois.

Separatists in Federalist clothing. The NDP is becoming a punchline in a really bad joke.

More French Hemoroidal behavior.

Lepage is a fucking jackoff. I mean, does he normally deal with senior executives when he does his banking?
Is he not receiving service in his precious language?

Or maybe Lepage should just grow the fuck up!!

Fuck him and the Quebecois horse he rode in on.

It's asswipe whiners like him who give the majority of the people in Quebec a bad name.

This is part of the reason that I gave up on the NDP a several years ago. Its growth has come almost entirely out of a pandering to Quebec Nationalists.

The extraordinary arrogance of French Nationalists is another matter. LePage is one who sees no irony in his position. English is prohibited in many areas of Quebec life but he expects all English speakers to operate in French.

Long ago when it was almost de riguer for Francophone Quebeckers to complain about "fat Anglo clerks at Eaton's" and that service in French was unobtainable (it was not). it was more difficult to obtain service in English at Dupuis Freres and, if it was given at all, it was given with a very bad grace.

Anglo Quebeckers have always been far more bilingual than Francophones and complaints about English in Quebeck have always been a crock: a myth of the xenophobes.
