Amusing article giving a French Canadian's perspective on Florida.
During my visit, I saw some customers shake hands with their waiter, as if to say: “Thanks, I’ll have some germs for dessert,” Josh Freed writes.

We are another planet compared to Quebec, population wise. . It's true that the
population of
Florida (21.5 million) is two-and-a-half times bigger than
Quebec's population of 8 million. What gets me is people that complain about Fl from Canada. If they don't like Fla, stop coming to Fla. Of the Canadians who visited Florida in the past two years, 42% said they went to the Orlando area, compared to 36.4% for Miami, 33.2% for Fort Lauderdale, 22.3% for the Tampa Bay Area, 19.4% for Palm Beach, 15.9% for the Florida Keys and 15.5% for the Fort Myers area. And we have 2 Canadian couple vacationing on our street now ( actually they both own houses) . From our tourist figures, 3.512 million Canadians visited the Sunshine State . And yes they complain all the time, about something. If you don't like Fl, please stay away. But nice people.
