Whats the deal with quebec?

~~BrentN~~ · 05-15-2006, 08:17 PM

I really don't know anything about politics or how the government is functioning in my country, lets start with that.

But I notice that whenever there is a mail in rebate, or a contest, or anything free for that matter it always says

"not valid for residents of quebec"

lol, they're getting jacked for everything it seems, they're always getting bashed its no wonder that they want to seperate.

Why are contests and such not valid in quebec? its part of canada still, i just don't get it.

Being from edmonton, i know a little...
what i get from it all is that quebec uses a different law system. And because of this, any contests or such for canada aren't valid in quebec

Alot of areas in this country discourage contests and sweepstakes with their unfare/rediculous taxations.

1- stfu nidex

2- urban-coboy is close. It's because in Qc, all contests and lotteries are regulated by "Lotto-Quebec". They are just fuckn asses that give a hard time to any company that want to start a contest.

So, instead of filling papaer, paying rights, etc, companies are just like: F-Y Quebec. And I perfectly understand them

So bottom line is: F-Y lotto quebec

I'll have to agree with Nidex on this one.....

fuck the frenchies

Fixed. A "francophone" is a device used to communicate with homos.

Personally I really dislike quebec for some reason, maybe its becuase they want nothing to do with canada.

Personally I think all the frogs over there should seperate.

That pot doesn't look too good, IMO.

The syrup does, that's what's important. Anyone who makes good pancake syrup, can't be all bad.

oh the stereotypes... it hurts

For me, the separatist movement is outdated. Why can we get along? it's just two different fricken languages, and slightly different cultures.

I'm cool with the rest of canada! And it was something very rewarding to learn the language.

Guys, please just remember that there's not only ignorant fuckheads that hate anglos in here

please, tolerance??

MSP · 05-17-2006, 08:11 AM

I was just kidding about the homophone by the way.

Eavanr · 05-17-2006, 03:21 PM

MSP, the keys are next to each other on the keyboard.

As for Lord Kain, I've had my fair share of anglobashing and seen quite a bit of francobashing. However, I still think Quebec is an important part of Canada.

While I can list all sorts of historical, political, cultural, economical and philosophical reasons, there only needs to be one.

Montreal.
