You are forgetting the half of Ontario that DOES speak French. Sure, it's not as large as the half of Québec that doesn't speak English, but at least the Ontario Francophones don't hate the concept of a united country.

Also, Ontario is officially bilingual (everything available in English and French). We're free enough to allow businesses to have their signs in whatever language they want—even if it has no English at all. In Ontario we call it freedom. In Quebec it's illegal to have an English only sign. The fines are high and the inspectors are the hardest-working and most diligent of all public officials. Known widely as the "language police". How utopian. Or is that DYSTOPIAN.

I don't read too much about Spanish speaking Americans trying to break away from the USA. Imagine trying to fine a store in LA for having a sign in English! Sure, there may not be many left, but it's not illegal!

Don't get me wrong, I love Frenching fast women and eating poutine. Smiler
