The Canadian Language Struggle

French and English speakers don't mix well here. There's always something to fight for.
Language
Old-fashioned and old-fashioned

Very conservative, that's what most Canadians are, but especially the young ones. How does that work?
Old-fashioned
Having a birthday in Canada

That's really different in Canada: the birthday celebration. Not better, not worse, but different.
Birthday
Police response

Here is an example of a truly ridiculous police response to certain events.
Rock hard
Making a fuss about drinking

In Canada, people continue to act strangely about a beer or a glass of wine. Will that ever get used to?
Wine
Foreigner rights

As a foreigner in Canada, you certainly have certain rights. Do Canadians agree with that?
Injustice
Poor old Canadian

If you grow old in Canada, poverty could be the thing that awaits you.
Oldie
Commuting, what is that?

The endless commute to and from work will eventually drive you crazy. Every single day.
To ride
Work below your level

You are stupid, uneducated, you can't do anything and a bum too. Here is a broom, can you do that?
Dom
Super bad bread

The Canadian bread is actually inedible. It is probably also quite unhealthy.
Cake bread
You do like cars, don't you?

If you are not a car enthusiast, you will have a hard time in Canada. You have to enjoy driving.
Auto's
Down with the German school

Shocking to see the German school being bullied out. You must be Canadian!
German
You said it wrong

Often you can't just say things, you have to use euphemistic language. Taboos.
disguised
Restaurant unfortunately failed

Making any money with a restaurant in Canada turned out to be simply impossible.

My English isn't perfect?

No matter how well you think you master it, the English language remains an obstacle.
