They made up for it by surrendering to the British and having their land sold to the Americans.

I mean, you're not wrong, but the French in this country have made being a pain in the English-speaking population's ass their entire raison d'être since like 1760. They've been fighting a resistance war for like 264 years which is why I consider it a good roadtrip if I can get from Cornwall to Edmundston without having to stop. Beautiful province but a pain in the dick to even exist in if you're an Anglo.

I'm an American anglophone that lives in Quebec for work and uh, yeah. These people are constantly fighting a culture war that nobody else gives a shit about or signed up for. There should never be language police.
