Le Québec parle - aux Français - Part 10

Difficulty: difficulty - Advanced Advanced

Canada, France

Quebec's current relationship with France is complex. French politicians tend to tread carefully regarding Quebec's sovereignty.

Sarkozy moved away from that policy, but his successor Hollande revived it.

Le Québec parle - aux Français - Part 5

Difficulty: difficulty - Advanced Advanced

French Canada is a cultural mosaic that is still exploring its identity. Some French Canadians feel more American than French, while others feel more of an allegiance to their French roots. Somehow, a Quebecois nation is emerging out of all this, but not without some growing pains.
