Default Hi! From Montreal, Canada

I am Chris, I am 27 and live in Canada.

I have decided to join emptyclosets as a way to meet others with similar stories.

Nobody knows my orientation and I find it difficult to adjust sometimes.

Hopefully can gain some insight on here.

Thanks

Welcome. I've always admired Canada for the fact that it knows what's good. Legalizing gay marriage. Getting rid of the penny. America can learn a thing or two. Anyways, I'm off topic xD hope you have a great stay!

Hello Canada!

I'm new too, but enjoying myself already.

I watched a French Canadian Film last night: Amnesia - the James Brighton Enigma. It really stretched my French with the accent difference and all, but I liked the film.

Je te souhaite une bonne journée!

Hi everyone.

Thanks for the welcome!

Well Montreal is the worlds 2nd largest French speaking city in the world, still, almost a quarter of the population is English. Only about 45-47% of Montreal speaks French as their mother tongue.

I am one of those who do not Though I speak French, English is my mother tongue.

However, I love French culture and think it makes Montreal the best city in Canada.
