Episode 5: From the Midwest to Rural French-Speaking Quebec — Two American Storytellers Ask Quebecois: Why the Two Official Languages?

Episode 5

Monday, November 4, 2019 • Duration 32:42

Former National Geographic Explorer and anthropologist Wade Davis calls language the old growth forest of the mind. In other words, language and how we know ourselves within our culture and our people are inextricably linked. And there are few places on the planet where these links are more palpable than Quebec. Still many of my American friends and colleagues just don’t “get” the notion of our two official languages. How it happened and why it stuck.

To shed light on that confusion, we send two midwestern journalists, without a lick of French, deep into rural French-speaking Quebec. Food Travelists Sue Reddel and Diana Laskaris have one mission — to ask one big question: Why does Canada have these two official languages and how does that define you as Quebecois?

The answers are not always simple, but quest itself is a journey of transformation.
