Broadway Matt - The Conan O'Brien thing was blown way outta proportion. The media coverage afterward focused on what the politicians were saying to condemn it more than the actual comments themselves. Frankly, I think the other 11 provinces and 2 territories were (not so) secretly snickering. Hell, I'd go so far as to say that even the government officials who denounced Conan's comments probably got a kick out of it too, but just couldn't say as much. The only people who took offense were the Quebecois.
As for who does Quebec think it is...Who the hell cares, is my answer. We all know what the rest of Canada thinks. (Que-est ce que le mot anglais pour le merde?)
In their defense, I've heard Montreal is a very beautiful city.
