Tridenteen Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 JMJ There are quite a few Canadian FSSP priests and seminarians. I try not to hold that against them, though....it ain't their fault.

Nihil, you probably know him... he's from Calgary and goes to the FSSP parish there. The old Parish Priest from St. Clement's here in Ottawa was Canadian... he was super great. Now none of them are actually Canadian haha.

[/quote] Too weird! I can't imagine that. I thought everybody would have to hold on to Dec. 8. I just noticed that it was Pope St. Pius X who reduced the original number of holydays from 36 to 8! S.

jeffpugh Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 I like the talks of dialect. It's interesting to me. I was told that Quebec French is reminiscent of 18th century French, with a little Anglicisation with some words, but on the other hand, some attempts to keep the Francophone community "pure". I lawl'd when I read that post 3 years after I made my last one here, which concerned the hidden "g" after "n". There are lots of little quirks among the English dialects/accents, such as certain areas of Britain adding "r"s after vowels
Vincent Vega Posted May 8, 2010 Posted May 8, 2010 I, too, wish for nothing but the best for the Québécois.
sistersintigo Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 Quite. Success to the Quebecois, and leave secession to South Carolina.

Catholic Fox Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 I would like to see a Quebecian State, but it might not make sense economically for them to secede.

[/quote] I don't know hard numbers or anything, but I do know that money flows from the "have" provinces to the "have-not" provinces, and I also believe that Quebec tends to get a relatively large slice of that pie because they're really good at making us feel guilty for not being French.

Didacus Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 I don't believe Quebec should leave Canada, but I do believe the rest of Canada should kick Quebec out ofthe country.

jeffpugh Posted May 27, 2010 Posted May 27, 2010 Certain people in Quebec cry "loss of culture and language!" but at the same time, abort their offspring.
