|    Hating Ontario in Quebec City    |
|    25 Mar 16 12:00:48    |
      Here we are at Easter weekend again and it brings to mind another such       occasion from the past. One Easter when I was a student in Quebec City, I       decided to take the train to Cornwall in Eastern Ontario to visit my parents,       who were alone for the weekend.              A couple got on at St. Anne de Bellevue in Montreal West Island. After they       were seated the husband looked over at me and then said to his wife, "Isn't       that the student from Ontario who they beat so badly in Quebec City?" She       looked over at me and then        replied, "Yes, that's him!"              Her husband then said, "It's such a shame. So many Quebec students have gone       into Ontario and never been bothered. Now they had to stick that into this one       in Quebec City."              The wife replied, "Better him than one of us dear. Better him than one of our       kids."              This week I was in Seattle for 2 days. A total stranger looked at me and said,       "They better not stick that into Italy or they're going to have a gun fight.              JL 03-25-2016              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
