I encountered a few Canadian and American tourists who seemed irritated I didn't speak fluent English to them. This is a semi-rural area.
WTF is up with that.
This never happened with tourists who spoke different languages but tried to communicate in English.
Many tried to communicate in French, which is always appreciated.
The whole world should NOT be made into a bland ''tourist-worshipping'' safe-space. Our nation is for ourselves first ; guests should keep that in mind.
Learning some language of the place you're visiting is not only courtesy, it might save you alot of trouble.
