Vous les avez entendu chanter, maintenant regardez-les danser. La soirée canadienne est le plus grand réconfort qu'on puisse souhaiter.

When you tell a Quebec Foid that your family first traces your Canadian ancestors to the "south shore" and that "you remember"

Everyone seems to be talking about these fun Quebec chansons à réponses from Soirée Canadienne in the 70s.
To Québecers: English Canadians are not mocking this tradition, but admiring it.
I think the fascination is that in our fractured, atomized society, we can see a beautiful expression of real community. Everyone, from kids to grandparents, knows the words and sings them together.
The joyfulness of the tradition is also a wonderful antidote to our hyper cynical age.
And the authenticity of the music itself is a beautiful contrast to the auto tuned and hyper engineered noise that passes for a lot of today’s popular music.
It’s obvious these songs were passed on from generation to generation, and represent a sense of shared culture and love of home. They make us nostalgic for a simpler time of shared meaning and identity.

Not to pit two Québécois queens against one another but that little fat kid will NEVER be him

I don't know why Quebec folk songs are going viral on X but they're irresistible. Vive le Québec libre !

Oh these Quebec folk songs keep getting better and better! Who could have imagined Québécois music going viral on the X timeline?
This beautiful kind of rustic village music is well overdue for a comeback!
Monsieur @WabKinew - vous êtes une inspiration pour tous les francophones du Canada !
Je viens de rejoindre le club des "bannis par Fabrizio Bucella" @FabrizioBucella pour l'avoir questionné sur son apologie pour les pseudo-sciences ! #banniparbucella #Salukes
Hey @Hostinger - You're supposed to be the cool guys from Europe !
Why on earth would you do this ? Nobody is calling it 'Super Intelligence' except for one profoundly pathetic and incompetent narcissist.

Crabe des neiges : Après l'annonce d'obtention d'une licence exploratoire par un armateur de Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, les responsables canadiens réagissent

Shall we name him Generalissimo Antonio Joaquín Wakeham ? @TonyWakehamNL
I present to you, the new @TonyWakehamNL official portrait.
Troubles at home ? Time for pointless sabre rattling against Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon and unfounded territorial claims.
Remind you of anyone ? @Joanne_NL

Et voilà le premier ministre de la province de Terre-Neuve-Labrador qui joue avec les mots. UNCLOS n'a pas tranché pour le plateau continental et celui-ci n'appartient pas au Canada. L'impérialisme canadien dans sa plus grande splendeur.
Let me be clear: France has no authority to fish snow crab on Canada's continental shelf. And Newfoundland and Labrador will not stand for it.
The fishing industry is the backbone of our coastal communities and the livelihood of thousands of families across this province.
I've spoken directly with Minister @Joanne_NL and Canada does not support this action. I will work with Minister Thompson and anyone else I need to in order to protect our fishery and make sure our position is heard loud and clear.
Still can't believe @simongerman600 posted that awful AI generated map of North America ! Like I said elsewhere, the cartographers did better in the 1500s with a Jacob's Staff and some math. You have NO EXCUSE.
