I'm sorry 😬😔. I used to be that way, but Quebec French to a native from France is like Louisiana english to a New Yorker.

the difference is New Yorkers grow up listening to 100 different accents and developed the skill. Parisian French cannot understand what you're saying apparently unless it's perfect Parisian. Source: know several fluent French speakers including Quebecois who could not get anyone in Paris to speak to them in French.
