It is possible to be an anglophone Québécois, and it's also possible to be a francophone of non-Québécois heritage; although obviously neither group is as large as the group of people that are both Québécois and francophone, neither group is non-existent either. That's the distinction.

I oppose the merger. Bearcat's point is accurate, there are English-speaking Quebecers. The whole definition of who is and who is not a Québécois is controversial. Not all French-speaking Quebecers have identified as Québécois, for instance former Prime Minister
Jean Chrétien is a Canadian. The Quebec government has emphasized a Quebec culture based on the French language, but there are many predominantly English-speaking people in
Montreal who primarily identify as
Canadians, I do not know if they identify as Québécois. This article should be solely for those who identify as Québécois.--

I agree that not all French-speaking Quebecers identify as Quebecois. Thus, the Quebecois page should be eliminated and included as a section of the French-speaking Quebecer page. — Preceding

Disagree with the post by the anonymous user. There are many Quebecers who identify as part of a Quebecois nation. The Quebecois nation has been recognized by the Government of Canada. The point is that there are French-speaking Quebecers who identify as being part of the Quebecois nation and others who identify as being part of the Canadian nation. Therefore the articles should not be merged.--

I have to echo the sentiments expressed above: the definition of 'Québécois' is not simply 'French-speaking Quebecer'. In fact, this article itself was based on the assumption that 'Québécois' has only one definition. I've made some amendments to try and rectify that; but, really, I think the whole page should be deleted/merged. --ĦMIESIANIACAL15:47, 9 August 2012 (UTC)reply
I check pages listed in
Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for
orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of
Québécois people's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not.

Incorrect use of "é"
The following discussion is an archived discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
Just to point out that there is no letter "é" in the English language. Moreover, no references from this article ever write the nation's name this way. So, in my understanding, the use of "é" must be avoided and the article renamed to "Quebecois people". If you differ, please care to value your opinion. Thanks,

Comment the references in the article need fixing, I'm coming up with 404-type messages, indicating the URLs have changed, but our links haven't. The Bare Links problem doesn't help either. --

Oppose. Of course there's an é. We're using it now. If you never use é, you have my sympathies, but that shouldn't limit an encyclopædia.

External links modified
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Québécois people. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
The figure for Québécois in New Brunswick is actually the number of French speakers in NB, not Québécois. The vast majority of Francophones in NB are Acadians, not Québécois. It's the wrong number for Québécois in NB. — Preceding

Request for Help to Implement Improved Audio for ‘Québécois’ and ‘Québécoise’ Word Pronunciations
I apologize for being inexperienced. I was wondering if I could get some help to implement audio files of higher quality for the 'listen' audio files associated with the 'Québécois' and 'Québécoise' word pronunciations. How would one go about doing this? The current recordings are fairly grainy and low-quality.
