Up until the 1960s and 1970s, the Québécois were poorer and less literate than their Anglophone counterparts, who owned and ran much of the industry and finances in Quebec, despite being a minority of the population. The Québécois, though, were never slaves
It is sad that the Quebecois were treated like this and left with with less mental compacity then their Anglophone counterparts.
Though the show uses slave songs and slavery imagery, only two out of seven actors were people of color.
How did anyone think this was a good idea? If there are going to slaves at least make them all black.
Campbell (far right) hit Montreal's favorite son with a harsh penalty, igniting a Forum frenzy.
It's crazy how much this happened over a hockey game.
Smoke from a tear-gas canister haddriven thousands of hockey fans into the streets, sparking afour-hour rampage that yielded the requisite fires, shatteredwindows, looted stores, overturned cars and 137 arrests.
It reminds me of the riots that have been happening as of late, its so scary that this was over a hockey game.
"You know, you have to suffer if you want to win. Jesus had to die and resurrect. That's the kind of thing we expect from our players. You must be ready to suffer in order to win or earn us some victory. You must risk everything and sweat and fight or be knocked out," he said.
Comparing religion to Hockey is a little sketchy, I'm surprised no one had a problem with this during its publication.
The graduate course is open to students in all faculties and those in undergraduate programs. Bauer expects to see more than his usual 10 to 20 people in the class.
If circumstances were different I would have loved to have done this program.
A chapter is devoted to " the blessed deaths " of Fathers Brebeuf and Lalemant;
How does one bless the death of one? I am too assume this in a religious context but, it's still a bit morbid.
The dream of a country built on equal opportunity and equality of “races” evaporated
It's strange how that dream just changed and it was no longer equality amongst the people.
The game of dish is also in great renown in affairs of medicine, especially if the sick man has dreamed of it. This game is purely one of chance: they play it with six plum-stones, white on one side and black on the other, in a dish that they strike very roughly against the ground, so that the plum-stones leap up and fall, sometimes on one side and sometimes on the other.
Playing a game of chance with someone's health is a bit morbid.
Iouskeha,
Is this a type of tribe or more of a god/goddess kind of deal?
A study on the population of 1663 12 shows that, of the 1,244 people at the marrying age(that is to say 14 years and older), only 44 per cent did not know how to sign their name whereas in France at the same date about 80 per cent of the population was illiterate.
That's interesting how even back then there was a marrying age to follow. It's good that it stopped for people so young but its bizarre how it still continues on.
Comédie-Française
Is this a French Comedy? That would just be using like a translation to world from an American standpoint but, what is it?
Quebec is also home to 350 species of birds, of which about 10 per cent winter in the province.
That's insane and slightly alarming as even here doesn't have that many.
