tim
In order for anyone to be french, he/she must have been born IN FRANCE.  
hile
the Quebecois may speak a patois that resembles French, it is just a dialect,
as is the variation spoken by the Arcadians (*cajuns*) of Louisiana...so much
for YOUR research....  A person born and raised in Quebec is not - CAN NOT BE 
- French.... 
The fact that the people will come out to see a native-born Canadian player,
when they will not flock to the gates to see a highly-seeded team shows only 
that nationalism/patriotism is alive and well in Montreal or Toronto -  just 
as the Cuban tranplants in Southern Florida made a super-hero of Livan 
Hernandez, despite his "spoiled brat" tantrum in game one of the World 
eries,
or the way the same fans cheered Andres Galarraga's play more than their own 
home team's efforts...
