In some ways, the French are Canada's blacks. A minority that identifies more strongly with itself than with the country as a whole, and which has permanent perceived grievances against the rest of the population based on things which are historical at best, imaginary at worst. They demand and receive very significant preferential treatment at the expense of everyone else, some of which ultimately works against their own success. They even have their own fairly successful political party, though in the US of course that's the democratic party. They even had a left-wing terrorist arm.
I can only imagine how much more intolerable they'd be and how much more they'd get if their skin was dark, too.
That's... too much French.

Oi, tabernac fou!
I'm just screwing with ya, most of Quebec is insufferable. But only because most of Quebec is Montreal, Quebec City, and Gatineau/Ottawa.
Quebec's got Big City Syndrome in spades.
This. We give into them so much and the Pierre's only give us attitude in return. I'd take them any day over the non-white immigrant hordes though.
