My Uncle and cousins grew up in Montreal, and they speak perfect both languages. I was not so lucky, only had French instruction in school. We learned it as a matter of normal education, but did not have a chance to use it, especially after I moved to the US for college.

Wouldn't mind spending a year in Provence so I could retrieve what I forgot (plus the great food and wine there). After that, a year in Tuscany

If it was in Montreal, Quebec, at least I would say you were speaking French a bit but probably not if you grew up in Ontario.  ;-)

Alors Roland,

Où avez-vous grandi ?  ;-)

Cordialement,

French Canadian spelling?

I grew up in Canada, so I'm partly French Canadien.

It’s a working name, Dean.  We’ve been using it for a little bit, but the scope was not introduced with this name.  You didn’t miss anything.

Is there a reason for choosing the French Canadian spelling? Trademark concerns? I know Edmund had a 63mm f8 refractor called the 6001 Voyager about 40 years ago (I'm using one as a finder on an Edmund 4" f15).
