Oh, Canada?
Just had a weird thought. What if we took a short vacation in Montreal - would that help my anxiety about speaking and understanding French, or make it worse?
My personal experience with the French is that they are rude and unforgiving for the most part. It is a prejudice that they have yet to make me drop, but I am always willing to give them more chances. Just sayin'.
I still smile at the thought of the French woman who told me that she went to Quebec and was informed she spoke French with an odd accent. She was amused but not happy.
Thank you for the offer. I likely will not take you up on it, but its most generous.

Yeah, but these would be Canadians.... I always have a good impression of them.
You would just get depressed about how bad the French is over there.
