Which is why my husband has NO desire to EVER go back to Quebec!!!!!!! (with the exception of seeing some family members and visiting his father's grave)
He grew up in Montreal

Anyways I asked for a dinner menu - wouldn't have had any problems in Quebec - the lady told me she would find someone who spoke english - I was so crushed and frustrated because I knew I had asked correctly for the menu, but Quebecois is different so I refused to speak anymore french the rest of my vacation and made my dad do all the talking  .
