        Bahahahaha

        Ohwait. You’re serious. 😅

        To be precise, it’s a regional dialect of French, not a language itself, per se. “Quebec French (French: français québécois [fʁɑ̃sɛ kebekwa]), also known as Québécois French, is the predominant variety of the French language spoken in Canada.”

          I’m a native French speaker, we went to watch a movie from Québec with school years ago, half of my classmates couldn’t understand what’s was going on.

          Anyway, to come back to your initial comment, I’m not sure what you were trying to infer

          • that Canadian shouldn’t be used to design English?
          • sure, but it seems fair too to use Canadian to describe French Quebecois, there’s nothing “cute” about this

            The irony of you arguing a whisper-thin semantic point from an insurance in Germany is not lost on me. 🤣☝🏽
