reppact Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Passed the new Scores Chicken and Ribs restaurant in downtown Montreal and noticed the new signage:This was the old signage:I went to the website and saw that the "new" logo may have been in Ontario all along, is this the case, or was it a recent change? Either way the new signage is ALOT better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShinyHubCaps Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I agree that it's better, but isn't Quebec trying to remove all English from its localities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reppact Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 I agree that it's better, but isn't Quebec trying to remove all English from its localities?If you mean the "Rotisserie and Ribs" part then it isn't allowed, it would be the french equivalent from the old signage " Rotisserie et Cotes leeves" If you mean overall, if the company has a trademarked name and its English (McDonalds) it id allowed. Unless the company rebrands a Quebec version of the name. Examples: Shoppers Drug Mart= Pharmaprix; Mark's Work Wearhouse= L'Équipeur; Audiotronic= Dumoulin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounded like the sign you saw was in English (the first one posted), that maybe the language of the "Rotisserie and Ribs" changed as well as the logo. Either way, thank you for clearing that up.

Mac the Knife Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 So in Quebec the right of free speech is apparently restricted. Swell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vetsson Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 So in Quebec the right of free speech is apparently restricted. Swell.I was going to go into an extremely long dissertation about the Quebec French-only sign law, the fact that Commercial signage in Quebec has to be a full 50% larger than 'Foreign language' signage, and the problems it has posed for the last 30 some years, but it is easier if I post a link.Click here Commissioner, V Leaguehttp://vleague.vetsson.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac the Knife Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 The government immediately invoked the notwithstanding clause, a clause within the Canadian constitution that allows the use of unconstitutional laws for a period of 5 years.WTF? "It's directly contrary to our national constitution, but we'll let you get away with it for the next five years..." What Canadian whacko dreamt up THAT concept?
