My case too...when they teach you comparative/superlative 7 straight years and there are still some who don't understand it after all those years...you have to find a way to learn it by yourself.

Really? Which part of Quebec's history contained sovereignty?

As far as I know, they teach us about the "Patriotes" since as far as I remember.

do Brazilians fly off the handle and go into mass (frank)ing hysterics whenever someone speaks Spanish in their country?

Is this a football point? I don't get it.

I have no intentions of debating this today.












And yes it's because you come from Quebec.

I'm not from Québec...

I'm from the PQest region of all the province...

nice!

in grade 7 or 8, one of our teachers was a huge hockey fan. so one day while we were doing group work, a few of us started talking to him about hockey in English. and he's all into it everything and we're talkin Habs and poop. in the middle of the convo, he fills out detention slips for all of us for talking english in class. it was like, really dude?

WTF? You seriously got detentions for speaking English in school? That has to be the most ridiculous thing I've heard this week.

You mean Laporte, etc.?

A family friend was a Minister in Bourassa's government. She had 24 hour protection, interesting times to hear about.

It was actually a pretty interesting part compared to the 4 years of "le commerce des fourrures"....

I asked you a question. We get you wanna be all funny, but let me know when you have the chance.

you should hear QP's recollections of the 70s... it's almost like being there yourself.

Let's erase 1970 from our minds and move on like nothing happened.

well I get what they were trying to do. I send my kid to the same school becasue it's a good school and he speaks french anyway so not a big deal.

I think for a lot of the students that didn't come from francophone families though, it just made them resent it more outside of school.

Oooh, this sounds good. Tell me more. It's possible I was learning Talmud at my Jew school instead of this juicy stuff.

The "sovereignty" in itself never happened (yet anyway), but it's not something that can simply be brushed under a carpet. As seen with the patriots, La crise d'octobre 70, 2 referendums and, more recently, the election of a separatist government.

those should be shut down IMO

Agreed. We got detention if daddy earned less than $20,000 per week.

A bunch of Francos got up and wanted sovereignty. They all got hanged except a couple who fled to the US and we now have a holiday in their honour.


End of story.

guys just a side note:
