I see this has struck a nerve.
I’ve travelled to Canada quite a bit, more eastern Canada really, and while I find Ontario to be nice Quebec is a lot more fun especially Quebec City if you’ve never been.
Several years ago I was driving with my kids in rural Quebec and stopped at a desperately needing to be updated McDonalds to satiate their hunger. The menu was entirely in French and my older son was a little panicked. Fortunately I speak a little French and was able to procure nourishment without any further issue.
We crossed the border into Maine and drove the 201 along the Kennebec River, an absolutely beautiful stretch of country.
From what I understand the older Mainers still speak some Quebecois to this day though I’m not sure the kids are really into it.
