  1. “The college says it’s been unable to respect the limits, in part because many international students had already been accepted before the quotas were announced.

    Ah. THOSE Quebec anglophones. Most of those plan to stick around, so maybe they should learn French since they will be working the service industry…

    1. English -is- the national language of Canada. French is found -only- in Quebec, and on soup cans. That is the fact of the matter.

      They just don’t like it.

      1. My new made in Asia, packaged in America lawnmower has 25 warnings in English and French for some reason, but no Spanish.

      2. Unfortunately it is also found in NB where it is an official language along with English. The whole deal here is very annoying.

    2. Or leave Greater Quebec. We need a couple more stars on our flag.

  2. From 2019 to about 2023 I brought about $5 million in exploration dollars into Quebec through research and recommendations to acquire mineral properties. One company raised $2.8 million and spent almost all of it exploring in the Belle Province.

    I was charged with practicing Geoscience without a license and fined $15,000. I never signed the reports going to the government, just the logistics reports from my company. I hired and paid a Quebec geophysicist to write and sign the government assessment reports and he included my logistics reports with his work. Apparently that wasn’t enough. On the advice of the prosecuting lawyer (who was quite rational about the whole thing) I plead guilty and the fine was reduced to $6,500. I haven’t worked in the Province since. I get emails from the service providers who I was very generous with. Over $400,000 in helicopter bills alone. The various hotels send me “come stay with us” emails periodically (in English by jove). But I won’t go back and I will never recommend an exploration play in Quebec again. But hey, I’m just one person so it doesn’t matter.

    I was told the guy who had me charged was smirking when he admitted it. I wish him all the best.

  3. Sell Quebec to France, for their portion of the debt. They’re all old stock colonizers, the Laurention elite will be happy.
    Trump can make them build a big beautiful wall at their expense.

  4. Shrug. The vast majority of Quebec anglos still worship the arsehole who gave them a constitution that provided them with zero protection from decades of language persecutions.

  5. K-bec is its own nation.
    They think so.
    The rest of us think so.
    We just need to shake on it and go our separate ways.
    Whether they like it or not.
