Je me demande si John Byrne savait Aurore quand il a créé le caractère de Jeanne-Marie ?
I was pinning the personality defects on insecurity , the homosexuality was just a contributing factor. You have added to that list, and your additions don't necessarily exclude my thoughts.Quote:

thanks for your French transaltion , Legerd, but i don't undertand your sentence : "Ainsi j'ai figuré qu'il est le mineur que je pourrais faire " Can you write it in English please :)
About john Byrne and Aurora ( In France we say also Aurora and not Aurore even if Aurore is the french tranlation )
I think Byrne wanted to show us the duality of Quebec , most of quebecers speaks French (and doesn't want to be mixed into an english pool ) they may be represented by NorthStar but there is also a English minority that would be represented by Aurora
I said MAYBE of course , syvalois could explain it better than me
In French now :wink:
Je ne connais pas non plus le Quebec d'un point de vue socialogique mais d'un point de vue Francais , la France etant particulierement attachée au Quebec pour des raisons evidentes :)
Les quebecois ne sont pas tous des souverainistes ou des independantistes (il n'y a qu'a voir les referendums pour l'independance qui ont tous echoué malheureusement)
John byrne en creant la Division Alpha , se devait d'integrer toute les particularités qui font le Canada et une equipe qui represente au maximum les Provinces canadienes . Il etait casiment obligé d'integrer le Quebec certes francophone mais egalement anglophone ; comme je l'ai dis plus haut , les quebecois ne sontpas tous francophones ou independantistes . Vega/Northstar representerait le coté francais et independantiste ( une face du quebec que meme Byrne , ou l'Amerique ne peut occulter ) et Aurora representerait soit les anglophones quebecois ; soit les quebecois francais qui ne sont pas independantistes et/ou qui ne veulent pas quitter le Canada
bon j'ai mieux developper en francais evidement car c'est plus facile a expliquer j'essaierai de traduire plus tard en anglais (je vais avoir du mal je le sens :lol: )
Well, I don't know for flight teachers?, but You would be suprised how many separatists lived outside Québec. I don't know much myself, but usually I think it's people that goes away for better coming back. Like right now Boisclair, he was considered to be the next Parti Québécois chief. Left the political left and went to study in the US, I don't remember which famous University. Parizeau, remember him? study in France and in England, René Lévesque admit in his book that he would have liked to lived in the US and for world war 2, he was a journalist for the US army (he also was a perfect bilingual).Quote:
I mean, how many sepratists are flight teachers in the US?
Of course JP is hiding his insecurities behind the tough guy act! BUt it's not only because he was gay. I know you meant more then that and like Kozzi said been loosing 2 set of parent and living in foster home after that is just enough to explain that. But again, you had homosexuality, mutant and speak french in north america (JP is not french, never was never will be) in a time of great change in Québec. As for joining the FLQ, it's definitly more the francophone aspect that motivate him that the gay aspect in him. And the FLQ just fuelled him with all the agressivity stuck inside him. He just learn that the FLQ was not the right way to optain what you wanted, but it does not mean he changed political view. It would explain why he was just ith AF for his sister. Again, a small hint to his political view made by Byrne, IMO.Quote:
Anyway. What I'm getting at is his tough guy act and all that may be just an act that he has concocted to hide the insecurities he had for being gay at a time that homosexuality was not particularily accepted especially in a predominatly Catholic society. I think that the joining of the FLQ was or I should say, may have been a way for him to get easy acceptance (if for the wrong reason) by endearing himself to the celebrated cause of the time. I think that this provided him an outlet for his aggression also.
I would even find it a little bit offensive to Québécers, if he stopped been a souverainiste. I know it's not the case (been offensive, I mean), but JP going from a separatist terrorist group to federalist could be interpreted as if separatist= terrorist and that is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo wrong. From what I've heard, I think there are like 30% of quebecers that are die hard souverainiste, an other 30% is die hard federalist and the 40% left or goes between the 2 or just don't care about politics. But I would say that in that 40% a majority thinks they are quebecer firsst and Canadian second.
So, my point is with Northstar, Aurora and Jeanne-Marie we get the rating. Northstar separatist, Jeanne-Marie federalist and Aurora just don't care about politics. but then again, I could see been Jeanne-Marie that just don't want to talk politic and it been Aurora that is federalist, but I just see Jeanne-Marie as the more catholic repressed afraid of changed person that would vote for the no change.
Tu n'es pas un tantinet baveux? Il fait froid et pluvieux ici. lolQuote:

Merci Legerd too. Il voulait dire : «Je me suis dit que c'est le moins que je puisse faire». Il faut imaginer la phrase dite en anglais et traduite mot pour mot.Quote:

I think I better translate the stuff you said, c'est vrai que le développement est mieux et je t'évite de faire la traduction. J'écrirais mes réponses en français aussi, mais j'ai pas le temps. Tu le dis si tu aimes pas ma traduction.Quote:

Anyway, you know what I think of the subject see higher up!
translation: I don't know the Québec form a sociolagical point of view but from a french one. French being particularly fond of Québécois for obvious reasons.Quote:

Quebecers are not all separatists (just look at the 2 referendums for independance that saddly failed)Quote:

John Byrne in creating AF had to ad all the particularity that makes Canada and make a team of people that characterised at maximum all the different provinces. He was almost obligated to integrate a Quebec that speak franch but also the the one that speach english; like I said above not all quebecers are not all francophones or separatist. Nortstar represents the francophone aspect and separatist ( A aspect of Québec that even Byrne or North America could not hide for themselves) and Aurora, represent the anglophone quebecers; or the francophones from Québec that are not separatist and/or that do not want to leave Canada.
I like your idea, but I like mine better:P

"Je suis un Montréalais et je peux affirmé quant tant que souverainiste pure et dure, NorthStar, c'est un nom de code très Montréalais. Nous vivons autant en fancais qu'en anglais."
Sylvie come from Quebec city and Port Cartier at the north of Quebec province, and that people they don't talk english enought. Me i'm a indepandance Quebecer from Montreal city and the english it is omnipresent in the daily life, so NORTHSTAR is a good code name if you are a french independantiste and you come from Montreal. But the real name of him "Jean-Paul Beaubier" it's more a french canadien name and not a Quebecer french name, replace it by "Jean-Paul Bourque", that is a Quebecer french name. :wink:
So NorthtStar is the only caracter in the serie i prefer, because is come from Montreal Quebec, he's separatiste, and is gay (i'm not but it make him the most marginal caracter on the serie.)
