Wolfie the "Quebeckan"

Today is Saint John the Baptist's Day, which is also the Fête nationale of us Quebeckers. I tried to explain this to Wolfie yesterday and I don't think he quite understood. I explained to him that tomorrow was going to be our celebration. I told him that daddy was a Québécois, and so was he, but not mummy (except when Quebeckers do well during the winter Olympics, but that is another story). He then told me: "When I grow up, I will be Quebeckan just like daddy." Which was quite cute and a new Wolfism. It's not much in terms of national identity, and it is very likely that he will identify first and foremost as an Englishman, but it's a start.
