O\u2019 Canada<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Many know the opening lines of the Canadian national anthem, \u201cO\u2019 Canada, our home and native land\u2026 .\u201d we learned that further along comes the line, \u201cThe True North<\/em><\/strong>, strong and free.\u201d How many other boats do you know that have had a national anthem written about them?!?<\/p>\n\n\n\n A local phenomenon is Canadian Tire. It\u2019s a chain of megastores that combine automotive, hardware, housewares, sporting goods, and thousands of other product categories under one roof. No matter what you go to buy at Canadian Tire, you will always find more things you \u201cneed\u201d. Yesterday, like Catholics to Rome, Jews to Jerusalem or Muslims to Mecca, we made our pilgrimage to Canadian Tire!<\/p>\n\n\n\n On dit que le qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois tire ses racines du fran\u00e7ais parl\u00e9 en France au XVIIe si\u00e8cle, lors de la colonisation de la Nouvelle-France. Depuis, l’influence de l’anglais des autres provinces est ind\u00e9niable, ainsi qu’une s\u00e9lection de mots d’autres langues insuffl\u00e9e par les immigrants du monde entier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Avec nos excuses \u00e0 nos amis qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois, voici quelques exemples v\u00e9cus ces derni\u00e8res semaines, \u00e0 savoir qu\u2019il y a des variations importantes de ville en ville :<\/p>\n\n\n\n Le qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois emploie toujours la forme traditionnelle des num\u00e9ros (p.e. quatre-vingt-dix) plut\u00f4t que la forme raccourcie employ\u00e9e en Wallonie et en Suisse Romande (p.e. nonante). <\/p>\n\n\n\n Some interesting observations about the wonderful country we’re visiting.
