I think that we, french-speaking canadians, understand that this forum his
used by a majority of english speakers.
But lets have some respect, because both cultures are great and us wanting to
preserve our héritage francophone dosen't mean that we hate people who only speak english
I can get down with that. used by a majority of english speakers.

Great!!!!![BB]
I'd save your chears till you get to know what most of these people think of socialist and communists.
I have had some unpleasant experiences to say the least.
In general. CKA RULEZ!!! A lot of bright people here. *Arctic, Fire_i, Kaetz (which you have allready met) and so on..
Hope you settle in nicely! SKÅL, DUDE!
I have not insulted you personally.. You, being a christian, conservative, liberal, anti communist, anti-socialist is the issue here. Not me.

I know the rightwing fanatics you speak of. They are utterly stupid aswell.

If you had a brain.. I'd love to see it.
That took two seconds, if I spent two minutes I could find so many more.

Regardless of your politics, it is considered rude to come into anothers 'home' and speak in a language that they don't understand. To continue such practice and you could end up being ignored completely!
Just so that my meaning is clear.
I took French in school
My 2 oldest kids were in French immersion for years
Their mother is French
My 2 youngest kids took French all through school
It cannot be said that I have anything against 'the French' (not including my ex)!lol
I am saying however that, in general, CKA is an English speaking forum. So in kind, when participating in the general discussions, please stick to English as that is the 1st language of the majority here. If you wish to converse in your mother tongue, then start another thread 'for French only'.
To do otherwise, you run the risk of being ignored and may find yourself 'on the outside looking in'!
why 'for French only'??? would you ignore it even if you had something to say, just because your 1st language is English???
If that were interesting, I would try to read it at least...
JEEZUZ CRISE ALMIGHTY !
I don't know if I can make this any clearer but for those of you who are a 'little bit slow', I will type this slowly'!
I do not mean a thread 'for French people only'!
I mean that if you wish to converse in a language other than that which the majority speak then START ANOTHER THREAD and do so.Then anyone who is interested or has the understanding of THAT language can join in.
For example; If you ask me a question in English and I answer in Hindi and another comes back at you in German... Do you get my drift now????
Again, I don't have anything against ANY OTHER LANGUAGE.
tis not me so slow but you are too fast on getting irritated! now please low down the tone, when you're are talking not to your wife!
We did try posting in different languages in one thread and nobody got offended yet! And coming up with a reply in Hindi is rather different from posting in the official languge (the second and the last!) of your own country.
Anyways, to make my point clearer to you: I understand French better then I can speak it. Now why can't I answer in English to a post in French? And somehow I don't think Nick or fire_i would be pissed about it
oh! and i know you don't have anything against any other language! i never thought the opposite!

Not 'irritated' but 'frustrated
Although I am not fluent in any language other than English' I do understand enough of both French and Hindi to 'partake' in conversation.
The point that I was trying to make was that because the majority of members on CKA speak/read/write understand only English, then it only seemed logical that if a thread is STARTED in one language, then that would be the language to continue with.
Oh yah. If I were to speak to Mrs Y. with the disrespect that you feel I directed towards you Kaetz, I would risk getting my 'hair parted' with the nearest solid object! My apologies to you.
