[Canada] Canadian Politics Redux

[Zoupa]

For all you "Quebecers are treating Anglos like second rate citizens" type:

CBC.ca: I'm an anglophone Quebecer who voted Bloc Québécois. Here's why.

Alright so we know now how one man feels.

I don't know if we treat them as 2nd rate citizens but we treat them better than how they treat francophones in the other provinces.

And this, ladies and gents, is an example of the rhetorical fallacy known as "tu quoque".

Inability to take criticism isn't a good trait.

The source of the criticisms is important.


Fallacy is such a weird english word to me. While it's used often, I never quite remember what it means & have to look it up.

Truth hurts.

I love how you still manage to criticize Quebecers, even in a discussion about how Anglophones vote for Bloc Québécois lol. You're in the right profession, that's for sure.

[crazy canuck]

/non sarcastic/ can someone explain to this BC boy what the last few posts have been about.  I feel like I did watching the last Avenger movie 

[HVC]

Zoup's found a Anglo who voted bloc therefore all anglos are bad. Also English Canada apparently treats francophones as second class citizens.

[crazy canuck]

And from the Zoupa, GF perspective?

[Grey Fox]

I said that Quebec treats it's anglophone minority very, very, very well & argued that RoC anglos have no standing to say anything, especially with the way they threat their francophone minority.

[Rex Francorum]

Agreed.
