I'll never get Canada.

Responses:

Claiming it as Canadian over Quebecois is in this case - Reagen May 29, 10:03 10
- I guess I don't see the choice here. Why can't it be both? I mean, hell, it has always been both by definition. - ty97 May 29, 10:05 9
  - That's *precisely* the thing that pisses off Quebeckers. -- nm* - Reagen May 29, 10:08 8
    - Which is ridiculous. -- nm - ty97 May 29, 10:09 7
      - TBC: I get they have their unique culture. They celebrate and they should. But it's a basic fact that they are part of Canada. - ty97 May 29, 10:10 6
        
        If Quebec had more recognition on its own, it would be less of an issue. -- nm - Roger More May 29, 10:15 4
        
        Can you elaborate? (Not sure what you meant by this) - ty97 May 29, 10:19 3
        
        OK, more. IMO Quebec isn't very well understood either within Canada or outside Canada. - Roger More May 29, 11:34 1
        
        And their feelings about immigrants are all over the map, especially ones that land in Quebec -- nm - zork May 29, 11:37
        
        In general. More later -- nm - Roger More May 29, 10:27
        
        Quebec is officially recognized as a nation within Canada, FWIW - Reagen May 29, 10:14
It can be, yes. It can go the other way, too (cuisine adoption can actually bastardize the origin). - Beryllium May 29, 10:01 4
- You can still get authentic Mexican food in Mexico, authentic Chinese food in China. - ty97 May 29, 10:04 3
  - Of note: the guy in the article says "go nuts with what you want to add to it". -- nm - Reagen May 29, 10:06 2
    - Listen, anyone ever puts spaghetti sauce on poutine, and I'm taking up arms. -- nm - ty97 May 29, 10:20 1
      - (Actually, they do that already - it's called poutine italienne and has been a standard on casse-croute menus for decades) -- nm - Roger More May 29, 11:35
