Not All French is the Same…
You’ve done it. You’ve worked hard and landed a deal with that company in Montreal, and now it’s time to visit them and celebrate all that hard work and cement your new business relationship. Thank goodness you studied French in high school, right? And, anyway, Quebec is part of Canada, so everyone will speak English anyway, won’t they?
Well, sort of. First, it’s great that you have some basic French in your pocket, because it will be much appreciated in Montreal. It’s true that it’s a very bilingual city, and that most people speak English. but Quebec has a strong French heritage, and a knowledge of French, especially some key Quebecois phrases, will help you a great deal.
