If there was a language to learn I would pick Spanish. South/middle America all over, nice tropical places. Even Spain. And if you are language orientated, I agree, chinese would be good. Think, more people speak cantonese than do all english, spanish and french combined. Might as well go for volume. Since I never plan on going to France or Quebec, French not in the cards.

Same goes for a lot of idiot Anglos who cannot make sense in its original English. Why do people like you think that that eveybody should kiss their ass and speak English? Do you ever wonder how many times the waiter spits in your soup before he serves it to you?

Ça ne manque pas. Its only good for the brain if you want to be a little sucky PQer to cowardious to leave confederation and rather blood suck to the tune of $9B... ie. welfare patient of the government of Canada. Personally, I don't strive to be a blood sucker, makes me happier to be a producer. In this country, speak english or stay at home. Don't like it, too bad. You don't have to like my opinion, but you get to live with it.

Do you ever wonder how many times the waiter spits in your > soup before he serves it to you? Because 72% of this country speaks english as a first or primary language in day to day. And the other 28%, of most able to eek out some, just too ashamed at their abilities to do so they often pretend not to. Maybe inbreed or retarded, not sure which. Lived in Montreal, once, it sucks.

It put a similar but different twist on me, have lived in Montreal also. Not born there, but close. When I was younger, I too was tough and thought he same. But living with the arrogance of the French Canadian turned me off. It isn't racism, it is intolerance towards intolerance. Quite a bit different I would say.
