Express frustration at the insult made to yourself and your national community by writers such as Mark Steyn, Margaret Wente, Barbara Kay, Diane Francis, and the like, who express irrational and blatant anti-Québec sentiments. Mention English Canada's challenge in maintaining an open-minded society in the face of these outbursts, and highlight the seeming indifference of your Québec colleagues to the issue.
Damn right I took it personally; he insulted, pretty deeply, me and my family and my friends and my colleagues at work. Its hard to represent English Canada as an open-minded society when these articles keep popping up. Mark Steyn, Margaret Wente, Barbara Kay, Diane Francis -- the list goes on. All have written irrational, blatant anti-Québec screeds at one time or another. Remember Wente's columns during the Maple Spring? Strangely, my Québec colleagues just shrug their shoulders; it seems their used to English Canada PC outrage mixed with outright bigotry.
