Incidentally, when I visited Quebec, all the road signs I encountered were exclusively in French. As I was driving from Ontario into Quebec, it was like entering a different country.
- jfim 12y agoNote that most of the road signs in Quebec have no text [1], similar to the ones in the rest of Canada (and unlike the ones in the US, which use a lot more text). Notable exceptions to those are construction and information signs, respectively the orange and blue ones, as well as the parking signs. Obviously, locations are going to be in French.
