There are communities here in South Florida, Hollywood beach being one of them, that depend almost entirely on Canadians during the winter. Until this if you went there and did not speak French in the winter, you could not speak to half the people on the street.

Not so much around Fort Eire but go east of Toronto and I would agree with you ,
From having a place up in Rice lake about 75 miles or so east of Toronto that is about where I see it start happening , then they even have to have traffic signs in French too, that is a little fucked up.

Canada has two official languages, English and French. The province of Quebec is mostly French Canadian.

For some reason, Hollywood Beach is a Haven for French Canadians in the winter. In Quebec, many signs and restaurant menus are exclusively in French.

In Hollywood Beach, Florida, many restaurants have English and French menus. They work hard to accommodate the French Canadians who visit.

Again...I'm not a woman. But you're too stupid to remember. You're too stupid to tell the truth, so all you do is make an ass of yourself with idiotic comments.

You must really hate yourself.

You're correct about FL and truth. She (yes, she's a female) has claimed to be both male and to be a "doctor." That tells you all you need to know about the integrity and veracity of that MAGAT loser.

Isn't it interesting how deeply concerned about NYC's potential "commie" mayor, and how "radical left" is AOC, to our MAGAT friends, yet when you try to tell them about a real problem -- caused by their #CrazyCarrot-in-Chief -- it's all a nothingburger?

Well as I said you get in the area of Rice Lake about 75 miles or so east of Toronto and you start getting into the area where they speak a lot of French.
Been there done that.

Yes. I did know that this member purports to be a woman. I'm not sure why she hasn't made my list yet, because she is truly empty calories.

We drove to Vermont last year to say goodbye to my daughter. We did a nonstop, 17-hour trip through Canada, most of it through the French-speaking provinces. I had a French language app on my phone but we didn't have much trouble figuring out the road signs. VT is xperiencing a downturn in Canadian visitors due to the #TangerineTerror's policies and Canadian reaction. For a lot of people living near the Canada/U.S. border, it was easier for them to bop into VT or upstate NY to shop than to drive an hour to Montreal.

Well the same thing in the western NY area, it is easier for people in Niagara Falls and Fort Eire to come to the states to shop in some of the large malls they have there then it is for them to drive all the way to Toronto .
And now a lot of them aren't coming and it IS hurting the retail and tourist industries .
