Parti Québécois leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon once pledged to be the antidote to the PQ’s xenophobia. Today, writes Martin Patriquian, he’s an “ideologically rudderless ambitionist” leading a hardline nationalist movement. ow.ly/hW1E50ZS5W8
On the left: Black and white images of politician Paul St-Pierre Plamondon crowded around each other on a red background. On the right: text that reads “How Paul St-Pierre Plamondon learned to stop worrying and blame immigrants. The Parti Québécois leader built his comeback on the bigotry he once condemned.”

So now we’re going to use temporary workers to subsidize health care, much like international students subsidize post-graduate education? Squeeze them out of cash, then kick them out. Seems like the Canadian way.

I've seen everyone sharing that US Dialect Quiz so I decided to make my own, much crappier, CANADIAN DIALECT QUIZ to guess where in Canada you're from
A flow chart I have created with multiple questions and the answers determine where you're from.

Question 1 is do you call it a hydro bill (which then branches down to ON, QC, BC, MB) or an electric bill (which then branches down to SK, AB, NS, NB, PEI, NL)

Question 2 is do you call it a cabin (BC, MB, AB, SK) cottage (ON and atlantic) camp (northern Ontario) chalet (QC) or bungalow (Cape Breton)

To delineate BC from MB: do you call it dinner or supper

To delineate southern Ontario rural or big city: have you heard of a stag & doe

To delineate SK from AB: do you call a hoodie a bunnyhug

And finally to delineate NL from the other atlantic provinces: whaddayat? (Correct answer: dis is it b'y)
