Hey, Jean-Paul...

You guys obviously take that license plate slogan way too seriously...
Jean-Paul Perreault, the president of Impératif français, a group that defends and promotes the French language, called the embassy's behaviour “contemptuous and unacceptable.”

“It's ridiculous, it's a … lack of respect towards the Canadian identity, which proudly includes French-speaking communities,” he said in an interview Wednesday.
You mean that "Canadian identity" you guys are always working so feverishly to shed?
Mr. Perreault also said Foreign Affairs Minister David Emerson and the ambassador in Washington should resign.
In your dreams loser.
