I gotta tell ya that as a French Canadian I welcome everybody. It's in my nature.But I wonder . Where is my Quebec going with this?As Rene Levesque once fought for,Let's be Quebecois or Canadian first,and leave the cultural differences as second. There is more potential in Canada than anyone realizes.
