Through this board I have come into contact with many French Canadians that I hope to meet one day and would be happy to share a beer (or ten) with.

I have never met a French Canadian tourist.
My current frustration is doing business with a French Canadian. It is not a lone incident.
I have only known two good French Canadians. All other dealings, especially in business, have been a culture of cheating, dishonesty, not paying bills, not shipping merchandise but receiving the money.
Unfortunately, when I placed an order on amazon.com lately, the item was only listed as shipping from Canada, it didn't list the city the item would come from or the seller being in Canada. This muck head is trying to insist he is in violation of Amazon's policy, and hopes he gets to keep my money, and that I do not get what I ordered, and furthmore I will just go away. Its been a two week deal of daily exchanges with the seller continually trying to stone wall instead of trying to do the right thing. I have finally gotten Amazon involved, but he's playing an incredibly delay and cheat game on my refund. I knew just from his messages he was French Canadian, even without being provided any details about the seller's location or personal name. I have since confirmed the seller is French Canadian. I could however, tell he was French Canadian by his dishonest or "dense" dealings with me.
Sure there are rough people from anywhere in the world, but French Canadians seem to have an extra helping. Sure there are good people among a rough culture, but French Canadians seem to have a sparing share. When I can tell an anonymous person I am dealing with is French Canadian, perhaps you can understand with my general frustration. I need to vent, and perhaps I need some French Canadians on this board to help me understand the what and why.
