Though I appreciate the Québécois for their tenacious ability to preserve their language and sense of community, sometimes they seem a wee bit stubborn. How, in our era, does having this type of standardization help anybody?

Then the streets wouldn't be so clogged and only a third would move each time maybe by alphabetical order such as our license plates are done here in the lower 48. still to have it all over in one day has its benefits I guess.
