Quebec's Identity in the 21st century

I want to share with you, dear readers, my latest thoughts on being Quebecers today. What is the archetypal citizen of Quebec, which crosses our streets? I think ultimately, the only thing I can conclude is that this picture has changed since the last two decades.

We started in the Canadian context, a perspective rather than social-democrat and no one can deny that Quebec society has become significantly more neoliberal over 15 years ago. In the values that prevail (by our media) are now seeking individual comfort, the rationalization of government spending and you could also feel the widening of collective values (increase in tuition, gloom over the issue independence, reduced services, privatization, etc.).

Quebec today is soft: in fact it ever was. Do you know a single country that has refused twice its independence? Have you ever felt the need elsewhere in the world, to describe a revolution of "quiet"? In fact, I'm almost certain that if I organized a coup, the population offers only minimal resistance which would shrink as soon as I get up a finger.

Quebec today is also the status quo: we do not talk about a referendum is not removed the boards, we do not hélioélectricité nationalized, we do not change the health system so that becomes functional, it does not focus in preventive measures.

also now allowed more room for private companies, participating actively in the acquisition of greater economic potential is cut in spending on services officials are trying to stop the growing corruption of any other and you begin (finally) to act on environment (to some extent).

I tend to believe that it is a form of regression in our society: young people are cynical and disillusioned over the identity issue, the newcomers do not always feel welcome here, the quality of our services decreases, but I hope it's just a balancing process which we can obtain what we lack at home to ensure Social dynamism: a birth rate sufficient to maintain the population.

How To Not Be Awkward Around A Guy

Festin pancakes

I'm feeling prolific: if I look forward to sharing my last feast I take the same risk of remaining hooked to my computer for longer than I would like.

I was invited by the roommate of my friend Angela to attend a celebration of the pancake. The concept is not very complicated: soup together eating buckwheat pancakes with cider. It was also very funny because the only Quebecer who attended the party, was Angelique and me! So we had a contingent of French, mostly students of the Polytechnic, who came back the traditions of their home (which we shared).

We found eleven I think, but memory is a faculty that forgets. There was a guy originally from French Guiana, Kendrick Tristan, a student at the quiet figure of a boy, Victor, a friendly face and colorful, Viet, an artist dressed as a chemist, Aurelius, who never missed one, Guylaine, who clearly loved to laugh, Celine, with his boyish face, Colin, who seems an artistic and unobtrusive, Theo, our host flamboyant, Angelica, known among a thousand for his booming laugh and me, well I do not have to describe myself, but to make me happy: a cause anything, a tad mushy, yet affable and above little vehement!

Well, I had to write these names in a completely despicable, but by saying it's a bit the same! In short, all that to say that between discussions continued between Quebec and France, trade crepe pan (the concept is to launch the pancake in the pan of his partner and he did the same with us to succeed ... memorable number!), jokes with the con, the "touch it or it will not touch", there was a lot of fun in the air, very simple indeed.

And if we swallowed tomatoes, eggs, ham, red peppers, white sauce, salted caramel (one shot of this sacred Theobald), a reduction of the grapes, bananas, Nutella, we mainly had the opportunity to do all that in a likeable atmosphere, looks like our distant cousins. Even if one was "completely intoxicated" that there was no smoking, no more than hypernationalistes singing the Marseillaise with loud, it was still the same friendly French which we usually have an idea! Thank you for this wonderful evening!

No no no, you're not dreaming ... no no I'm not dead! It's been a long time since I did not have and not take the time to update this blog ... Who said that children were not time-consuming? :)

For nearly two years, the missions on which I stand are very often linked to development Winform and unfortunately every time it is the same statement; the forms and / or usercontrol are a nice mix of business code and management GUI, not to mention the case found the same data access code stuffed in the middle of this pretty little world. Yet, it has long been well known patterns
