It's ok to speak French too. If you live in a province where the majority speak french, don't be a retard, try to learn it. I can understand old people not getting it, but I hold immigrants to that same standard if they come to Alberta or Quebec. Learn the language and speak it at home. Ce n'est pas trop difficile.
To each their own. I've never encountered sea food that I've hated, except for roe. Tasteless bubbles in my opinion.
