True. If you go into rural Quebec you may find the folks refuse to speak
English even if they do know it.
I would think it less likely that they would do that when in Florida.
And, I do believe there are people in Quebec who truly do not speak
English.
Met a group of Kaybecker college students at a campground in Ontario in the
1970s. Not a one of them knew how to start a fire. They were holding matches to
a log and wondering why it didn't reach combustion temp. They were quite
friendly after my brother and dad split a log into kindling and showed them how
to start a fire.
One of the males and none of the females spoke English, or maybe (but unlikely)
some of the others were hiding it. French was a mandatory class in Ontario
elementary schools, but maybe English isn't mandatory in Quebec?
