Opinion: Why I'm saying farewell to Quebec

I love living in a French city. I embraced the language early on and made sure my child did, as well. But Quebec has never embraced me.

I had this experience in French catholic schools growing up in northern which borders QC. Mom & I were French: thoughts, dreams, speech, activities.

But I was also Ontarian. My father was English with an English last name.

So I was harassed by my teachers as inauthentic, from a bad wrong language home, or variations on that BS. 😖
