soc.culture.quebec
Quebec society and culture, mostly in French.
The francophone room of North American Usenet: the 1995 referendum lived here in real time, alongside language-law debate, joual appreciation, Canadiens hockey and a running seminar on why France and Quebec misunderstand each other.
It operated largely in French with English tolerated, a policy enforced by gravitational field rather than moderation.
