I'd do something Quebec-y here just for the sake of it, but I'm still kind of giggling about listening to somebody from actual France describing them.

Please share, giggling at Quebec's expense is sometimes our national sport

Their comment was that Quebec French should probably be considered a different language from actual French, rather than a dialect, along with something about an entire society of rednecks.

I don't think Quebecers celebrate Canada Day, really. They have St Jean Baptiste Day, which I'm assuming was once a religious holiday but is now very much secular.

They're actually pretty forward thinking on a lot of topics. It's just their speech has a lot of archaic terms in it.

Nothing more than other Canadians who actually speak French say all the time.  Quebecois is not French.  It's not English.  It's often called 'franglais' here.  It's actually quite amusing, because I can carry on a conversation in my poor French with someone from a French-speaking European country; the same is not true of my fellow countrymen in Quebec.

LOL @ Franglais.

Watched the fireworks on the lake in our family boat. Was a grand ol' time.
