Side note: Have you ever heard of Acadian French called Patois?

We need separate agreements so that the cost of the wall is in the Mexican agreement.

But...but...that’s going to screw up the globalist plan for a North American Union.

I think “patois” is a generic term that means any non-standard dialect

Acadian French is slightly different from Quebec French, but not much, since they intermingle a lot (most Acadians are in northern New Brunswick, right next door to Quebec)

But I do know that the France-French really look down on Quebecers, considering them to be basically low-class, because they speak a “bastardized” form of French, not the “pure” form spoken in France

e.g. “patates” vs. “pommes de terre” [potatoes]

or anglo-french terms like “les brakes”, “le steering”, “le weekend”, etc.

I agree that they should be separate agreements. The two countries are wildly different and there’s no way they can meet the same conditions.

This way it will be easier to get Mexico to pay for the wall.

Refreshing to have an adult who knows that the “One size fits all...” meme is a recipe for huge waste.....others were too lazy to do the work to customize things.
