Fête Nationale / St Jean-Baptiste

There are over 2 million Franco Americans in New England alone. And yet, I seem to be one of the few who remembers our history, nevermind our language. This is not an indictment, we've had to adapt to survive and avoid persecution.

But still we're allowed to be proud, we're allowed to be seen, and I'd love to live long enough to see our diaspora celebrate our roots and our present on both sides of the border

Et bien sûr, vive le Québec libre
