    Extractions: G ET I N T OUCH W ITH F RENCH C ANADA'S P ERSPECTIVE In 1995, Geoffrey Simpson in a column in the called the unity crisis the "world's most boring debate." Early in 1996, he retracted the statement. The perspective underlying his statement typifies English Canadian blindness to the viewpoint of French Canadians inside and outside Québec. It is paramount that Canadians who wish Canada to continue as a country come to understand the different perspectives in the unity debate. It is easy for English Canadians to muster up an arsenal of reasons why Québec should not separate. But the threat imminently looms with us still. The more difficult task is to take a look at the other side of the debate. The powers are only the end-game. What citizens concerned about Canadian unity must understand is what underlies the strategy of the separatists, for it is shared by a vast majority of French Canadians. The real challenge and one that each English Canadian must meet is for English Canadians to understand clearly the perspective of French Canadians. F ACTORS U NDERLYING T HE P ERSPECTIVE The perspective of French Canadians lies in two factors: 1) the French language and its preservation 2) the French Canadian culture and its protection A minority in Canada and North America, French Canadians have always feared assimilation. It is a natural impulse, and it flavours many aspects of their society. The perspective, and the fear, manifests itself in a view of Canadian history that is distinctly different from that which English Canadians learn.

    Extractions: Quebec City’s cultural scene runs the gamut from the high aspects of opera and symphony to intimate boites à chansons , with their Celtic-tinged Québécois folk music. While there is some experimental theatre – boosted by local son Robert Lepage – much of the theatre tends towards the mainstream, with larger performances often consisting of light-hearted musicals, such as Starmania and Notre-Dame de Paris , both by local son Luc Plamondon. Films are primarily in French but there are usually at least a couple of screens showing English-language flicks at any given time. The best way for visitors to appreciate the culture, however, is during one of the large festivals, in which almost the whole city seems to become involved. Québec Sur Scène (website: www.surscene.qc.ca ) has information on dance, theatre, classical music and other shows.

It'll get your blood running. Driving a team can be a challenge at first, but it quickly turns to just plain fun. There's nothing like standing at the end of the sled, throwing out an anchor to keep the dogs' energy in check at each stop, leaning into and out of curves, and figuring out the personality of each of your dogs.

Sign up for E-subscriptions The province of Quebec is unique in North America, a vibrant community made up of almost six million people whose mother tongue is French, 700,000 whose mother tongue is English and another half million whose first language is neither French nor English. French-speaking Canadians account for almost a quarter of Canada's total population, with a million residing in provinces other than Quebec. Quebec's French culture and language have flourished in Canada, in large part because of the determination of its people to resist assimilation into the English-speaking majority, but also because the Canadian federation has provided guarantees, from its beginnings, for their language and culture.

    Extractions: Last Updated Sat, 19 Oct 2002 22:35:40 BEIRUT - Warning that too much " Dallas and Dynasty " is dangerous, Quebec Premier Bernard Landry says all nations should be able to exclude culture from free trade negotiations. At the ninth summit of French-speaking countries and territories, Landry joined a chorus of concern over a side effect of globalization. The United States is bombarding the planet with its films and television signals, Landry told the Francophonie in Lebanon, and a price will be paid if countries don't have the right to protect themselves. Landry at Francophonie "If the entire world wants to look only at Dallas and Dynasty in Texan English, that won't be a plus for mankind, in spite of the quality of those products," the premier argued. Quebec and many other Francophonie members want a special instrument to allow them to set up barriers around cultural industries without being accused of breaking international treaties. The United States has repeatedly argued at the World Trade Organization that such measures violate free trade agreements.

    Extractions: An Exceptional Culture for Extraordinary Business Quebec has emerged as a premiere investment location from which to conduct business in the Western Hemisphere. Rapid economic growth and an increasingly international profile have squarely entrenched it on the radar screens of major investors from around the world. By Howard R. Silverman Q uebec cannot be generalized, typified or characterized by any common means. In many ways, it is a province of dichotomies that is truly unlike any other location in North America or even the world. Quebec's culturally diverse population is highly skilled in both the practical sensibilities of business as well as the recreational art of living. Their entrepreneurial flair and know-how is equally balanced by their leadership role in the global marketplace. Indeed, this combination of disparities resonates throughout every aspect of the province of Quebec, from its distinctly European culture to its burgeoning economy. Covering a surface area of approximately one million square miles, Quebec shares a common border with the American states of New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine as well as the Canadian provinces of Ontario and New Brunswick. Its total population of 7.4 million inhabitants is mainly concentrated in the southernmost regions in the urban centers of Montreal, Laval, Quebec City, Hull and Sherbrooke. From these locations, Quebec-based companies have access to a pool of over 100 million consumers within a 600 mile radius of Montreal. As a result, New York, Boston, Toronto, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington DC have all become key trading partners for Quebec's business community.

It has its own finance company, SODEC Finance. 82% of Quebec's cultural exports are to the USA. Companies such as Cirque du Soleil have been assisted, but criteria are strictly applied, making funding very difficult to access by non-profit arts companies.
