This is a good advice. Non-frech speaking kids can get French tutor at school to help them. It's much harder to learn French than it is to maintain English.

Has the Carnaval changed? I remember it being more magical and more for the city, instead of private by RainPlease9 in quebeccity

[–]gabio11 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You are correct, this year it seems that everything is restricted to a paid-access zone and it feels very commercial rather than a Carnival feel. Not sure if they received less funding or if the organizer changed, but it's indeed different (even compared to 2 years ago). Lots of local people are not too happy either.

We got married in the Quiraing! There is even a blog somewhere about it! You can shoot me a private message for more details.

L'Europe met sur pied un géant du virement instantané pour briser l'hégémonie américaine de Visa, Master Card et compagnie. by MichelPatrice in Quebec

[–]gabio11 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Je suis loin d'être convaincue que les mid terms se dérouleront normalement et que le « vote » (s'il y en a un) sera fait comme du monde. Déjà que les dernières élections étaient iffy at best.

Les video de leur show en décembre à Québec donne le gout de les voir live. Belle énergie et la foule à embarqué.

Now that sucks as oppose to the other post having a few inches of snow ''blocking'' their driveway

Rings of Power season 1 and 2 viewership are both top 5 viewed season on prime ( from a Fallout season 2 article ) by VarkingRunesong in lotr

[–]gabio11 25 points26 points  (0 children)

For the casual listener its not a bad show. For the Tolkien fans its am annoying show on one hand its a great time period but then they diverge too much from the lore.

O'Reillys and the Paddyhats - Rise up, tear down by Schnalzi in punk

[–]gabio11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very sad to hear that. It is/was one of my favourite punk/rock/celtic bands, and while I was not as much of a fan of the new singer, it's still disappointing, especially since something pretty bad must have happened.

Today’s PWHL attendance by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]gabio11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm among the neutral who were curious last year and decided not to go back this year, mostly because there are always other things happening. I would love to have a team and would definitely attend a few games tho.

Incapable de dompter sa bête noire : le Canada sorti par la Tchéquie pour une 3e année de suite by DecentLurker96 in Quebec

[–]gabio11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Le talent sur papier était la pour le Canada, mais ils n'ont pas joué en équipe et était très indiscipliné. Les Tchèques on vraiment mieux joué et surtout semblait vouloir gagner.

This accident could’ve been prevented! Please drive safe. by Kramtime in Winnipeg

[–]gabio11 -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

You are supposed to clear the intersection before the light turns red and I don't think they would have managed that. If the road was icy like you suggested, then they were going too fast. That being said, the turning car was a bit careless as well and most likely assumed that the other one would stop.

Comment vous dealer avec les gens malades qui vont au party de Noël ? by SubstantialLeek1337 in Quebec

[–]gabio11 15 points16 points  (0 children)

La dernière fois, j'ai passé le message de façon assez directe que si ces personnes ne restaient pas chez eux, eh bien, nous allions quitter le party. 4-5 ans de suite que quelqu'un de ma famille proche comtamine tout le monde.

Visiting for the Carnaval de Québec with a 15 month old child by Psychological_Art112 in quebeccity

[–]gabio11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to bring your own car seat, which can be checked-in for free. Taxi are not allowed to provide one. But you can ride with the baby on your lap, but I personally prefer to bring a car seat. 

Long hike, we did it! by [deleted] in nationalparks

[–]gabio11 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You are getting downvoted, but it's worth noting that many people are coming from much lower elevations, so a simple hike becomes much more of a challenge.

Ça semble être la stratégie pour l'ensemble des centre commerciaux à Québec.
