sorry mammele for your bad run in with those french racists. however you are pointing out one execeptional instance and generalizing. i have lived here in mtl all my life and NEVER experienced any anti-semitism. i have had antisemetic comments thrown at me twice however, in manhattan, and when i lived in europe for 2 years. i cannot think of any instance of an offensive remark, or confrontation in the streets in mtl. mtl as a city is much different than quebec as a whole, as it is a city that is multi-cultural, and has a wide variety of different ethnic groups, more than almost any city in the world. it is very tolerant, and it is the real french quebecers who are constantly battling and struggling for the province to retain its own identity and original french culture. that is what bill 101 is all about. that despite all the multi-ethnic peoples that moved here, they are fighting to try to maintain the province’s uniqueness and french as the main language.
i have worked with french quebecors and with other goyim (from ontario, ny, and chinese) for many years and found the french quebecers to be the most easiest people to deal with from them all.
