Many people think that there are two official languages in Quebec, English and French, according to the surprising testimonies collected by Guy Nantel during his last pop vox on Tuesday, in front of Dawson College, in Montreal.
Mr. Nantel asked Montrealers regarding Quebec culture. The humorist and former candidate for the leadership of the Parti Québécois demonstrated that several elements of the province’s culture were still unknown to many. This is especially true in English-speaking neighborhoods of Montreal, he found.
“We live in a bilingual country, everyone is bilingual […] coast to coast, that’s how we sell it. This is what they are told, everywhere there are two languages,” he declared on Sophie Durocher’s program broadcast on QUB radio.
In total, 11 people of all ages were interviewed. The question was: “Who is the first leader of the Parti Québécois?” Nobody was able to give the right answer, something to think regarding.
