I lived in Quebec recently for 10 years and half my life in total, spending time there frequently, I would agree with the story except never received 2 bills in a restaurant, likely because I dont often go to the same one(they just dont punch them into the cash register unless you pay by credit card). The other big difference is marriage of French Canadians(live together and have children, the term is "my chum", this I would bet is much much lower % than the ROC. I am surprised at the outrage, for most this is the situation in Quebec, I guess some Quebecers realize its not normal, or maybe it is because the article was written as critical. Its easy to see and feel the difference, compared to the ROC.  Something as simple as being a pedestrian, using turn signals while driving, and the roads...those glorious roads:(..
