Chronicles of a Pure Laine. A Québécois Pure Laine reaching out to Anglos and Allophones. Pure Laine is better. In a column titled "Get Under the Desk" published by The Globe and Mail on Sept. 16, 2006, Jan Wong writes. Pure laine, the argot for a 'pure' francophone.

Bluntly put, the expression "pure laine" mostly refers to culture. If this statement sur...

Talking to walls…. Aller au contenu principal. When did Toronto outgrow Montréal? Quand Toronto a-t-elle dépassé Montréal? Difficile de le dire précisément. Voici cependant encore quelques faits intéressants et éclairants. Dans les archives des recensements du Canada, on retrouve une carte donnant la densité de la population en 1851,1871, 1901 et 1921. Le lecteur attentif remarquera que, dans la région de Toronto, plusieurs grands cercles se chevauchent, davantage que dans la région de Montréal. Toro...

Speaking of cultural ignorance: A letter to Manjit Singh. Dear Mr. Singh,. It’s with great interest that I read your letter in Thursday’s Gazette. In which you attempt to school the culturally ignorant members of our National Assembly about the Sikh kirpan. Most people are not willing to admit that the statistics they pull out of their asses are solely based on prejudice and ignorance. Your self-awareness is commendable. Indeed, why indeed should Québec, Ontario, American Homeland Security or the United ...

Quebec On a Mission to Save English in the World. With 1,297 comments. It’s going to be a scorching hot summer in Québec City. In about a week the Philadelphia Flyers will put an end to the providential media blackout provided by the Habs’ unexpected early playoffs successes and Jean Charest’s Liberals, already busy with Mulroney-scale allegations of corruption, will also have to deal with their very first full-scale language crisis. The Supremes essentially agreed that closing that loophole was a legiti...

Québec Redneck Bluegrass Project: Québec is not where you think it is…. I had to spend 27 minutes on the phone with a CBC producer last week to realize I had no real opinion about the upcoming federal election. This of course is one of the great universal truths of our lives in this valley of tears: we know nothing, indeed are nothing, until we’ve got someone else to bounce off. Think about it, what could Canada possibly be if it couldn’t. April 11, 2011 at 7:49 pm. Subscribe to comments with RSS. Adski:...

Chronicles of a Positive Pessimist
Chronicles of a Positive Pessimist. Tuesday, February 19, 2013. Sorry it's been so long since I posted. I had some computer issues and then I guess I got lazy. Update on my weight loss:.

I can't even do chair aerobics? It's ok though. I just needed to vent and maybe I'll get lucky one of these days. I think I...No ne...

Chronicles of a Preachers Kid (PK). Monday, June 1, 2009. Below is a discussion I had with a buddy of mine, well its not really a discussion, but I simply asked him what I John 2:19 meant to him. 1 John 2:19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. Thursday, April 30, 2009. So since I prefer to mind my business, I like it when folks mind theirs.

Chronicles of a Pure Laine. A Québécois Pure Laine reaching out to Anglos and Allophones. Editor's note: this post is an excerpt of a memoir written by Jonathan Kay, editor-in-chief of The Walrus. To read his complete and touching testimony. Than with Erica Ehm. Whether I was watching him on MusiquePlus in French or listening to him on CHOM–FM in English. Despite all my language bigotry, I found myself buying French albums during my trips to Dutchy’s (including, yes, Mitsou). Posted by Michel Bolduc.

Chronicles of Arabia
Monday, October 3, 2011. The Arab (R)evolution: What's Next? This is indeed a problematic question, because we are often very inclined to admit that there is no way for us to know what the future holds, but, at the same time, stubbornly strive to 'figure things out'. Yes, the revolutionary spring blossoms of Arabia have got us posing this question (but didn't they rise from that very question - aha. paradox! But are we up for it? We think we are/we should/hopefully we will. Wrong f* *ing answer. WE HAVE ...

Chronicles of a rambler. Pregnancy Update: Week 36. January 6, 2017. I haven’t been eating any more than usual as far as I can tell. I eat when I am scheduled to eat as far as my GD (gestational diabetes) diet is concerned, but even then I don’t think I eat as much as the diet says I am supposed to. I’ve never been a huge eater.
