That being said, I did successfully order a sandwich at the Subway in Chicoutimi last year! Although the girl behind the counter did revert to English near the end of my order after seeing how badly I was struggling with the names of the toppings...

Yeah that is also a bad reflex we have, if someone tries to speak french and isn't perfect, instead of letting him try we have a tendency to switch to english so he doesn't feel bad.
If your lucky you find someone who doesn't speak a word of english, and that could have well been the case in Chicoutimi.

Well we don't consider ourselves an afterthought, after all we do have the best track, but being a government town we do rely on our Quebec brothers and sisters for a few things:
10. Ottawa can't stay within a budget
9. We need them to ensure we finish our spring track sessions before it snows
8. We aren't allowed to have a sense of humour, so we need Bob
7. Ottawa can't be politically incorrect, so we need Bob
6. Without each other we'd have no one to make fun of
5. Quebec has most of the beautiful women (oops sorry Bob, that's your line)
4. Andy
3. You can learn French at the track. just don't repeat it back at the office.
2. Michael
And the number one reason we rely on Quebec:
They always provide the Happy Hour beverages!

The beauty of our great country is the bilingualism and multiculturalism that exists within and gives it that uniqueness that other countries can only dream about having.
Without these fine qualities, we'd just be another state (Not that there's anything wrong with that...
