    Loved it! “Parisian” French or “Québécois” French–it’s a beautiful language.
    Thanks for doing our country proud, Michel!

    He totally nailed the “bah-bye” at the end.

  • Catevala

    I found this in very poor taste and it wasn’t even funny. I am surprised that FP Geeks would put something like this up on their site. My opinion of course, your mileage may vary. Maybe it’s a “generational thing”?

      We appreciate the feedback. We certainly didn’t intend to offend anyone and we (FPGeeks) apologize if we did.

    • Michel de Montreal

      I by no means, intended to offend anybody in anyway what so ever.
      I’d be very grateful if you’d be so kind as to plz point out the offensive bits.
      Thank you kindly

        PS: if it is in reference to my speaking, I am a bilingual Canadian with French decent who grew up learning English in a British school so I do take the liberties of mixing and juggling and playing around with accents especially when I’ve had a few drinks, I was by no means mocking anybody, and again I apologize if I came across as offensive.

    Would have been better sober I think. Loaded weapons used for humour, implication that the general populous think non-indigenous Canadians live in Igloos and the generalisation that Anglophiles cannot pronounce French were all a little derogatory.
