No, that would be "Canucks"

But Bombardier are headquartered in Montreal in la belle province. They make aircraft, all kinds of train stuff, great personal watercraft (the "Seadoo"), wonderful snowmobiles ("Skidoo"), etc. They have a research and testing facility just west of Kingston in Loyalist Township. And Quebecois are not French; they are Canadien.

They are descendants of the French who came to Canada many moons ago.
By the way, the Royal 22e regiment du Canada were the only French speaking troops to do any fighting in Afghanistan.
