I've travelled across Canada a few times and my experience in Quebec wasn't too hospitable to say the least. This despite the fact I could speak French decently at the time. (I've lost most of it now due lack of use over the years) When they figured out I wasn't a native French Canadian they refused to converse with me in French. This unfortunate incident occurred at a gas station when we required directions. We made up our minds after that episode to bypass Quebec and travel through the States instead.

The ironic part is, one of my friends is originally from Quebec and he doesn't have an attitude like the ones I encountered in my travels. Go figure.
