Hehe, that is such a load of bull, lol
People think the french people in montreal are some kind of fascists and take you to prison for not speaking their language, haha

Actually, if you came here, you'd see that english is as widely used as french, and most french people speak english as well, while the opposite is not true. And about running your business in english, it's only for people that have stores and have signs displayed outside for promotion or stuff like that, then they must have the french translation as big as the original text on the sign, but that does not seem to bother much people here...

Stormtroopers, hehe, we're not the US here, lol
