In Quebec, often the French do not pronounce the letter 'H'. For example Hot Dog is pronounced Ot Dog and Hudson Hardware is pronounced Udson Ardware.

They also often insert an 'H' where there is none, by saying Hany (instead Of Any) and Hall (instead of All).
So one day in a French Immersion Class for 1st graders, the teacher was asking her class to describe the use of Ozonol.

Little Mary got up and explained that she had fallen while roller skating and scratched her knee. She went home and her Mother cleaned the cut and put a bandage with Ozonol on her knee and it was all better.

The teacher was so proud and then asked other children if they had any explanation of the word.

Little Mario raised his hand and started to explain. 'Well Teacher, da udder nite, me an my fodder are watching da Montreeal and Tampa Ockey Game. An den my mudder start to do da vaccum. Den, my fodder, yell at my mudder, ai, ai, ai, ai, Tabarnack Denise, put dat dam ting haway now or I'll stick it up your hass .....Ose an all.'

Québécois is actually a very nice language (dialect if you want) despite the accent, they use very very old french words that isn't spoken anymore execpt in Quebec. They would understand all what a french would say, when a french may not understand what they would say most of the time (if they speak joual).

Quebec's movies are subtitled in France... Also their slang is not for a french, like Tabernacle.
But, when they dumb an english/american movie to french, the accent disapear and they use the current french language, the only detail that would tell you it has been dumbed at Quebec, is that they pronounce the english name or city with a strong english/american accent, pretty funny.
