Oui, oui
After all the French-bashing of recent years, I can finally cry:
As for Québec, I'm all for her freedom and independence, if only to annoy all the French-hating socialist English Canadians I've met here in Korea, who pride themselves on their tolerance and sophistication vis-à-vis backward Americans, while spouting the most hateful rhetoric against the long-suffering people of Québec.
Seriously though, Québec is a beautiful place, a truly "distinct society," and until recently had been, with Ireland and Poland, a staunch bastion of conservative Catholicism.

Your Inner European is French! |
 Smart and sophisticated. You have the best of everything - at least, *you* think so. |
After all the French-bashing of recent years, I can finally cry:
Vive la France!
Vive le Québec Libre!

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
