@@help4skin For fiscal year 2022-2023, all Canadian provinces and territories will benefit from equalization, including Alberta and Saskatchewan, the first will receive $7.1 billion in equalization, the second $1.9 billion. The province that will benefit the most from equalization, according to the Canadian federal finance ministry headed by Chrystia Freeland, is Prince Edward Island, where each of the 160,232 inhabitants will be allocated $4,620, compared to $3,170/inhabitant of Quebec. Equalization, exclusively governed by the federal government, ensures each Canadian a comparable standard of living and is based on the ability of each province and territory to collect taxes, which are then distributed by the federal government. The equalization envelope for the 2022-2023 fiscal year, according to the Canadian Department of Finance, is $87.7 billion. Quebec and Ontario, the most populous provinces, will receive $27.4 billion and $23.7 billion respectively for this fiscal year. As for British Columbia, $8.4 billion will be earmarked for it. Are considered in the calculation of the fiscal capacity of each province and territory the taxes of individuals, those of corporations and businesses, property taxes, 50% of income from natural resources and consumption taxes, such as GST and provincial taxes. for consumption, if applicable. According to the same source, each Quebecer (8.641 million inhabitants) contributes $6,000 to the equalization scheme and $12,000 for each Albertan (4.459 million inhabitants) some $12,000, due to oil spillovers. Therefore, Quebec's share for this fiscal year is $51.846 billion, while Alberta's is $53.508 billion. Therefore, according to these figures provided by the same source, Alberta would contribute $1.652 billion in equalization paid to Quebec. Finally, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland and Labrador, receive billions of dollars in subsidies, when the price of oil collapses, subsidies paid by all Canadians, such as the purchase at the cost of 5 billion dollars for the purchase of the Trans-Mountain pipeline in the previous mandate of the Trudeau government to Alberta. So, with regard to Alberta's contribution to the equalization plan vis-à-vis Quebec, it is only 1.90%, nothing to claim that this province maintains the high standard of living of Quebecers, the most taxed in North America perhaps, but whose social safety net is largely dependent on their taxes and consumption taxes.

Sure there are different accents across the country just like in the states. I found the accent in the Tennessee hilols and a part of Alabama very difficult to comprehend. Just like some Canadian east coasters, distinct accent and depending on where the person is from it can also be difficult to understand. Have you ever asked an American what that thing is on top of a house is called? And the answer you get is...”it’s a ruff” (sounds like a dogs bark,) whereas a Canadian would call it a “roof” (pronounces life poof.)

“Bonjour hi” reminds me of the Lebanese greeting “Hi, kifak, ça va?”- basically “Hi, how are you, good?” in English, Arabic, and French respectively. While Arabic is obviously the language most Lebanese people grow up speaking, and of course English is the global lingua franca of business and diplomacy, French still has a certain prestige in Lebanon and it’s not uncommon, especially in major cities like Beirut, to find people who are fluent in all three languages. So you get a lot of mixing and phrases like “Hi, kifak, ça va?”

English global language... More like mostly in East Asia, which is probably the most important place outside Europe and Americas in terms of economics. And English is dominant there. Like I'm Chinese, but if you only learned Korean or Japanese (likely through K-pop or Japanese anime, stuff like that), you still have to talk to me in English. In fact I don't even understand Cantonese Chinese. I only understand, read, speak and write Mandarin and Shanghainese Chinese (the latter isn't even written, technically). That doesn't seem like the case in Europe, probably thanks to the EU, which the UK is even trying to leave. When I was in Paris (Lover museum?) Seeing that I can't speak French a staff tried to ask me if I can speak Spanish instead. Looks like he's more comfortable speaking Spanish than English if you don't speak French. That's not that common in Asia.

Not to mention nothing prevents them from being fluent in another non-native language other than English. Like, I see Scandinavians talking to each other in their own language (Swedish and Norwegian especially), or even German it seems, WITHOUT using English or any other language. My point is, English doesn't seem THAT established as THE SOLE 'common international language' yet around the world. East, South and SE Asia seems more like an exception to me... I even heard that under Scandinavian educational systems kids tend to command a lot of languages, especially compared to even the UK, not to mention like the US, etc.

The 12 to 18 number is beyond exaggerated (literally impossible considering the program was in place for 4 years with government bonuses for each child) as per the rapes it happened and is sad. It also happened elsewhere, no one condones that. The Church is also the largest charity organization in the world keeping countless people fed (in Canada) and millions elsewhere.

Nah, as a Quebecker I can say we typically feel more threatened by: 1) Unequal French-English distribution of power. 2) Slow erosion of the French language. 3) Environmental concerns that we typically have in much higher priorities than other countries. Up until 4years ago, the constant fear of Separatism was also a big one at every provincial election. That leaves us with very little time to care about a small RU-vidr that barely any Quebecker knows.

Hockey is indeed Canadian but it is also Quebecois like some things are Scandinavian and shared among several nations. So now my question, what is Quebec known for or famous about? I do not like others telling me what is ours or not ours. You should listen to us instead if telling is what we should say. It happened to me too many times when I was working in Toronto. I was not allowing myself to tell others what is best for them, this is not correct.

@Ruben Benoliel you're slightly misinformed there, English is a Germanic language, not Latin. The reason so many words are similar is due the the Norman conquest of Britain and the official language on the island was French for hundreds of years. There is even a theory that English is a creol of various North and West Germanic languages with tons of vocabulary from French, Greek and many other European languages. Some evidence for this is the simpler grammar structure in modern English compared to old English which had 3 genders in the language compared to none now. Fun fact: the word "Mankind" originally meant the whole species with no thought given to male or female since it went like this Female: wif (still around as "wife" In modern english) Male: Wer (still around as "werewolf" ect..) The species: Man (also still used in many Germanic languages with slight variations)

Calling Quebec Racist for making law to solve issue that the liberal are never willing to fix. and west Canada as polluter even making Greta come to scare people with fake climate change to force Carbon tax on people all across Canada and divert the Canadian election with fake issue rather then real ones. What I mean is that the earth water and air is cooling down the earth just like a car radiator so unless you run out of water and air you cannot have extreme climate change and the sun is still in the sky to warm it up. So they spend two week on fake climate change and fake racist to arrive with a minority liberal government at the federal level.

I congratulate you for being capable of respect and interest and open mind and show this publicly in this video. It takes a lot of self knowledge to be able to stand for a point of view on one thing and yet remain open for the rest when it comes to people and situation. When I moved to the west I thought people would hate me because I was québécoise. That’s what I learned to believe. But I was surprised to see how people admire our culture and our authenticity and freedom. I think we all have to gain from creating ourselves through the synergetic encounters of our individuality - from all around the world. In the end, langage and borders are only things we decided to create over the years to communicate and survive but we are all the same and I think that it’s natural to wish to evolve pass the definitions that were put on ourselves. It is a hard journey to integrate how many truths in the world there is and how many various ways of living there is but.. true freedom lies there ✌🏼

I'm American and have never spoken, stepped foot in, or lived in Québec. Nor do I know more than 3 sentences in French. But, if I am being extremly honest, I feel incredibly supportive and nationalist for a place I've never been. I don't want to see it become just another typical english-speaking north american province like Louisianna, where there are only traces of their history and language left in a few monuments or gravestones. If I ever get the chance to move there when I'm older, I have too. Vive le Québec Libre.

I once went to Quebec with family (American). My dad is very talkative, so he would always strike up conversations in English (he never got crap for it). Because of the construction he would often ask about the construction in the city and the large amounts of construction workers and orange all over the place. More than one person he asked would say that it was the fault of the Montreal Mafia, forcing unnecessary construction and shutting down businesses by creating construction sites that blocked foot/road traffic and clients form going to those businesses, forcing them to close permanently or temporarily and eating into their profits to bully them. I don't know if thats true tho.

I spent a decade, my twenties, living in Montreal. I went to university, married a gal who spoke not a word of English, spoke, read and wrote French, worked in Place Ville Marie and sang their folk songs better than they did. When I sensed reverse discrimination for not being pure elaine ( pure wool ), I left, not wanting to be a second class citizen. I believe they went to far. If you were not born Quebecquas, you could never do enough to satisfy them.

Don't forget about NB. Moncton, to me, is the truly bilingual city (sans jugement) in Canada. Also the Museum of Civilization in QC, always gives me a laugh. As it is not a museum of civilization, but a museum of Quebec. It is symbolic of Quebecois post quiet revolution. I'm an anglophone but have a great appreciation of Canadian Francophone culture (Quebecois, Acadian, Metis).

Hey guys, remember the very name "Canada" comes from what is now Quebec: Jacques Cartier named the place Canada in August 1535, from what he learned from his indian guides. The French settlers living along the St.Lawrence started to call themselves as "canadiens" as far as 1670. Quebec's first political party was le Parti canadien in 1800. And...the original O Canada (1880) had only French wording.
