It seems to be based on the way immigrants vote with their feet and overwhelmingly choose Toronto or Vancouver over Montreal. Even those who go to Montreal often end up in Toronto. The notion that Quebec is unwelcoming to immigrants is based on the movement of immigrants, not misunderstandings of Quebec culture or society.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
