You identify w/ the south, yet live in Montreal. Do you see Quebec as more southern in temperament than anglophone Canada? I visited once for a film festival. Seemed cosmopolitan w/ an Islamic aftertaste. Enjoyed Quebec City more. That had more French flavor.
Well, I'm not a native Montrealer. Montreal is really more of a cosmopolitan city than exclusively Quebecois, they have lots of Haitians, Arabs, Hindus, Chinese, Ukrainians, well, everything. Yes, Quebec City is more French in that sense. Although I wouldn't also equate the Quebecois with the French, exactly. French Canada does feel different than the rest of Anglo Canada, though. Many good bakeries, etc. And yes, maybe a more "southern" than Anglo temperament, I suppose.
