----------------------------Original message---------------------------- re. the Quebec/English Canada comment (Sorry, I can't quote whole passages of text with this e-mail account...) Ulf, The author of the original post can jump in any time here, but my guess is that Seguin was showing a bit of nerve in a.) assuming he could conduct an interview with Arcand in English, and b.) turning his unilingual status into a joke when language issues are such a sensitive thing here. That's about the best I can do. As I mentioned before, the two insults don't seem all that comparable to me either. And of course we don't even know whether Arcand was the least bit offended, since a print interview wouldn't reveal his tone of voice. Maybe at this point I should stop trying to interpret someone else's post and bounce it back to Kovik...Aside from the usual English/French tensions, what *was* the big insult?
