Ils prennent pour leur nature l’état de leur naissance

Je travaille pour des Canadiens. Nous vaincrons, etc. etc. Je travaille pour des Canadiens, mais ma tâche n'est pas d'analyser les Québécois; pourrais-je survivre si c'était le cas ? Garder mon emploi plus d'une semaine ?


Martin Patriquin (Tête Carré (sic) in Maclean’s Montreal bureau) and Philippe Gohier (a Franco pur laine working in the Maclean’s mother ship in Toronto) dissect and discuss the filth and delight from Quebec.


Had Heinrich not leaked it, the Bouchard-Taylor report would have become, like the Castonguay Report and Johnson Inquiry before it, the subject of one or even three existential crises, several dozen editorials, something about sovereignty, a few kicks at “les anglos du West Island” before devolving into the usual partisan bickering. Consume, digest, rinse and spit. Hey, at least we’re predictable.

Consume, digest, rinse and spit, Martin Paquin, 20 mai 2008

Heureusement qu'on les a.



Among the the low-rent, browshirt-wannabe groups that turned up was the Milice Patriotique Québécoise (the Patriotic Militia of Quebec)

They’re just misunderstood, Philippe Gohier, 20 mai 2008

Et VLB est un esclavagiste! Photo (les deux photos sont tirées des commentaires du billet).



... an increasingly long list of bizarre attempts to imbue the Canadiens with nationalist fervour. When Daniel Brière declined to sign with the Habs last summer, La Presse’s Stéphane Laporte pilloried the Flyers’ forward for turning down the opportunity “to play for your gang, for the people who speak the same language you do.” A few months later, it was Saku Koivu’s turn to get the Uncle Tom treatment. After introducing his teammates in English only during the team’s home opener, Koivu met the wrath of sovereignist-cum-federalist-cum-sovereignist lawyer Guy Bertrand, who claimed Koivu’s linguistic faux pas “demonstrates contempt for our language.”

Philippe Gohier est un esclavagiste ! Euh, wait a minute, Saku est québécois ? Pierre Falardeau sur les partisans des Canadiens:
Pendant ce temps-là, d’autres hystériques en mal d’identification, peut-être les mêmes, chantent le Ô Canada en bilingue au Centre Machin-Truc, font tourner leurs linges à vaisselle au-dessus de leur tête et se prennent pour des « nommebeurrouones » avec le « flag du Canadien su’l’hood ». N’importe quoi ! La prochaine fois, ils se mettront le drapeau de la Molson dans le cul, ou celui des beignes Tim Horton, du Pape ou des Jeux gais. N’importe quoi ! C’est proprement dégoûtant.

La presque reine et le petit président, Pierre Falardeau, 27 mai 2008

(... the last province election campaign was little more than a sloppy French kiss to all things rural and de souche.) While the hatred often comes across as the domain of language warriors who see Montreal as the hub of assimilation, make no mistake: it’s not just pur laine cranks who hate the island. Quebecers all around the province harbour a deep-seated resentment towards Mourrial.

Montreal is not Quebec, Philippe Gohier, 5 mai 2008

Bon bon j'ai rien dit.
