    Montreal people hate Americans?

    Is it true? A couple of my friends went up to Montreal for a snowboard trip, and all I heard from them was that them Canadians HATE us Americans with a passion.
    They would try to be nice, and say bonjour(sp) and other French words they picked up, but as soon as an English word came out of their mouth, Canadians all got an attitude.

    So all ya Montreal people, is this true? Do you really have a deep rooted hate for us Americans?

            Exactly. Many of the French in Canada are brought up to believe English speaking people are their enemy. There s actually a law in Quebec against businesses posting signs in English. It isnt just Americans that have trouble, its anyone who speaks English.

              Right now, you are trying to prove something with some dumbasses? If it was a study, you'd be the laughing stock in the scientific community.

                Your almost right, french has to be on top of the english name/writing, and the english portion must be i believe 55 or 70ish% smaller, I might be wrong on those numbers, but theres a % on how smaller than the french one

                  They would try to speak it and they had no problem with my friends. It's when the Jersey accent came out that them Frenchies got all snobby.
                  O well, Imma be up there for spring break in 2 weeks, I'm just curious I guess. What's there todo in Montreal anyways? LOL

                        Yep, they used to put blank stickers on imported wine bottles cuz there was no french description on the back. I'm telling you, they would ban access to english sites if they could. They're fascists who want to keep the french people in the dark.

                          There isn't any laws prohibiting posting signs in english, but you have to put the french translation also. That's the law.

I was curious to know if this is true, or if they happened to be running into ignorant people or if they were just being ignorant. So I came on here cause I knew there were a few Montrealers who could let me know. Sheesh.

                              Allright, what I was trying to say is that it's not true. Anyway, do you seriously think that so many americans would come visit Montreal if such ignorant facts were true?

                              Unless you are talking about teenagers

                                  That's ok. It's just that at a certain age "passions" do not reflect reality. Anyway, when I was working in a movie theater for like 10 years and many americans were pleased and loved Montreal because of everyone being so nice.

                                  The opposite can also be true, there will always be some assholes but it's really not a majority. But trust me, it's not the case. We love americans. Well, maybe not the french from France, but that's another story.

                                    Dont worry, most of the people in Montreal have common sense are quite friendly. You will rarely have a problem. I just wanted to point out its the language you speak, not the fact your American that offends a few of them. Dont let a few biggots make you think the whole province hates you.

                                      Here is deal, I'm from the usa but lived in Montreal for 5 years,

                                      The french canadians hate the english canadians for political reasons that nobody here in the USA will ever begin to understand or care to understand, the english canadians think all americans are stupid, well at least the ones I met in Montreal.

                                      All those 5 years all my friends where french canadians, the most friendly people you will ever meet, and the french chicks are the hottest....

                                      Just my
                                      SETH: Well, how'd you like to pay for it tomorrow... in cash?

                                          here's the scoop from a frenchie from Montreal


                                          French people from montreal hate ontarians especially, although some of us hate all english (mostly those that don't speak english)

                                          americans, we love em, we find em funny as a bunch of them look stupid (read rednecks, cowboys, etc.)

                                          depends where you go really.. .most my friends are french, and within our inner circles there's always a bunch of english people... never a problem...

                                          but there's something boring about ontarians.... :P


                                          LOL, I'm just playing... as long as you don't act like a big shot with your buck 50 for each of our dollars, it's all cool

                                                  French people from montreal hate ontarians especially, although some of us hate all english (mostly those that don't speak english)

                                                  americans, we love em, we find em funny as a bunch of them look stupid (read rednecks, cowboys, etc.)

                                                  depends where you go really.. .most my friends are french, and within our inner circles there's always a bunch of english people... never a problem...

                                                  but there's something boring about ontarians.... :P


                                                  LOL, I'm just playing... as long as you don't act like a big shot with your buck 50 for each of our dollars, it's all cool
                                                  With the mentality you have right now, I am happy you're not in Montreal anymore. Geez.

                                                  Man, de dire que tous les québécois haissent les ontariens, c'est un peu fort! C'est de la politque ca, la réalité c'pas la même chose et tu le sais

                                                    Man, of saying that all the québécois hates the ontariens, it is a little strong! It is politque Ca, reality it not the same thing and you know it

                                                      Don't act like a tourist, mix in with the local people and learn about their custom and culture and you'll do fine in any part of the world.

                                                      In Montreal, avoid speaking english when you first approach someone, they hate that. Say a few French words and when they say "what do you speak English" then you can talk in English.
                                                      Quoth the Raven, nevermore.
