I watched the debate in French…. The worst part of it were the shitty Rebel News fuckfaces allowed in the media scrum afterwards. Who let those shitbags in.
Peter rabbithair did, of course.
Hahahaha I call him Pierre Furbunny 🤣🤣🤣
His name literally translates from French as Peter rabbithair. I like Peter rabbithare as well or even Peter harehair. Lol
🤣🤣🤣
Quebec proving once again to be the smartest province.
🤘⚜️🤓⚜️🤘
Good!
Means he likely won’t win. I mean, it always comes down to ON&QC.
So, FUCK YOU PP YOU LITTLE BITCH WHORE OF A HUMAN SHIT STAIN!
…er, sorry. Mom always said to tell the truth no matter what.
Even when saying a statement that is entirely valid and within reason, Canadians apologise
Amazing
Just the most punchable face.
Like a casting reject for ‘Adult Milhouse’ in a live action Simpsons movie (for which the role, had he got it, would have all of 2 seconds of screen time and no spoken dialogue because have you heard that motherfucker try to speak?).
Je veux immigrer au Montreal. Ça a l’air d’etre une belle ville.
(I’ve been seeing the writing on the wall for fascism in the US for a while now, and have been learning French to increase my options.)
A Montreal, pas au Montreal.
Cela a de l’air d’être une belle ville. Ou plutot au quebec: Ça dl’air d’être une belle ville.
Votre français est très bien appris malgré vos petite fautes. Merci d’avoir appris ma langue maternelle. J’ai l’impression qu’elle va vivre longtemps.
Duolingo dit que mon niveau de français est 95 (CEFR “high B1”), mais je ne ne me sens pas à l’aise. (J’avais besoin de chercher quelques mots, comme “level” et “fluent,” pour écrire ça.)
Je devrais faire plus d’autre genres d’etudes.
Il y fait un peu froid… pourquoi pas Paris? Marseille?
I’m interested in those places, too. And also Cayenne and Tahiti, for that matter. The other reason I originally picked French to learn instead of Spanish or German or something is that it seems useful for people who want to sail around the world because France has so many overseas tropical islands.
(Montreal does have a particular advantage compared to the rest of Canada in terms of better urbanism, BTW. Check out “Oh the Urbanity” on YouTube.)
At this point, though, I’m interested in any stable democracy that would let me in.
The hard winters of QC really jack up the cost of living to the point where it’s not really worth it compared to other options you’ve listed. Also, immigration is more difficult in Canada vs France, IMHO (Canada is pretty strict about “what benefit will you bring to the country from your citizenship?”). Granted, Guyana is probably cheap living, but it’s really difficult to live there without being fluent in French (many of the locals speak French as a second language; relying on English to communicate will be incredibly difficult when French is the unifying language there, not English). The entire département has less than 300K people living there.
France is by far and away the best European country to immigrate to if you want to explore overseas tropical territories!
Get to at least an A2 level in French before traveling there, with B1 being a stretch goal. France is really well laid out, and there’s almost an obsessive compulsive culture of labeling everything, so you can really learn the language by just walking around a major city and reading everything.
I’d imagine establishing residence in Paris would be the easiest way to go about immersing yourself, getting naturalized, and then moving on to wherever else. Remember, the tropical overseas départements are generally financially poor and lack opportunities even for locals. There’s a reason why there aren’t giant populations in these tropical places.

The main reason I mentioned it would be if I managed to get a job at the space center, or at least one that’s aerospace-adjacent.

I’m still seriously considering buying a boat and becoming nomadic. It would be more of a “work odd jobs to fund the next few months of cruising” kind of thing, not trying to permanently settle on a particular island. It’s just that the timing isn’t ideal because I don’t yet have the budget for as nice of one as I was hoping for. (Also, it’d be years before I got to French Polynesia anyway, since I’d most likely get the boat in the Southeast US before traveling around the Caribbean and through the Panama Canal.)
Otherwise, yeah, for a more traditional lifestyle + getting EU citizenship, I agree metropolitan France (and ideally Paris specifically) would be my best bet.
There’s a bunch of influencers online that did the “boat life” thing in the Caribbean, so definitely check those out to learn from their mistakes.
I’d be willing to go out on a limb and say boating westward, from Panama, in the pacific would be basically impossible in a pedestrian boat.

On the contrary, that’s the usual way to do it. Apparently there’s basically a whole flotilla of cruisers who do the passage from the Galapagos to the Marquesas around February each year.

As far as I can tell, it’s a lot easier and more popular than trying to traverse eastward (Japan →Hawaii →California). It seems like it’s often the first big ocean crossing cruisers starting in the Caribbean do, being less intimidating than trying to cross the North Atlantic via the Gulf Stream.
Speaking of influencers and “pedestrian” boats, a few years ago a YouTuber named “Wind Hippie Sailing” did the passage in a 27-foot sloop, solo. Apparently it took her 41 days.
Je veux immigrer à Montréal.
Welcome to Canada!
The rest of us have some catching up to do.
