Me neither but the way you look "de haut" at people who care and poop on them make you a small person. Déçu, très déçu.

ok... this is simply not true. And if you're so disappointed, so be it. I'm entitled to my opinion just the same as you are. I'm sorry if you disagree, but I can hold true to my convictions just the same. And I've been swayed against them many times by people making sound arguments.

I couldn't care less about the captain not speaking French.

Reality is that it will always be important to these fans.

- WaterBoy


It's important to some people, and turning all of them to ridicule is wrong in my opinion. There are some who are just bat-poop crazy, but some others are just disappointed about it, and taking up the condescending stance on them is just disrespectful.

my thoughts on being a born and raised Quebecker, and being a resident here:
You're at a distinct disadvantage to not learn both French and English. Those who outright refuse to interact with people in either language are the epitome of ignorant.

When I walk into a retail store, or I meet somebody random, I address them in French if they're French, and they often respond in English in recognition of my first language. This is called tolerance.

When I call Hydro and they refuse to speak to me--their client in English--even though I'm perfectly fluent in French, it bothers me. Especially when I answer in English and they understand exactly what I'm saying.

I'm in no way, shape or form opposed to the French Canadian culture and preserving the things that have historically made Quebec unique. I have lived here my whole life.

The Canadiens belong to us all. And as residents here, those of them that truly feel like Montrealers will go the extra mile to learn a bit of French, and they'll immerse themselves in the culture as much as they wish to. But to expect that they do that for yours or someone else's satisfaction is wrong, in my opinion. It's not a part of their job description, nor should it be.

but Marois was an evil racist oppressor who was a few steps away from burning all anglos alive, right?

Eric....have you gotten over Jack Todd using the whole "I don't know who you are" thing on Twitter?

I had a lot of respect for you and your work.

You are probably one of the few anglos who cries because it's written ARRËT on your STOP signs.

Now that is money well spent.

I don't see how EE was being condescending. Isn't he also entitled to his opinion?

I'd say being a captain requires being a leader on your team on the ice and in the room.

Talking to the fans and media should be a minimal requisite for the job.
