Canadien (was Re: English accent)

[Mark A. Mandel]

"It would never occur to a Canadien to describe a Frenchman as
speaking French with a French accent."

By the way, how frequent is this use in English of the French word for
'Canadian' (masculine singular), capitalized according to English usage, to
mean 'French-Canadian'? I don't think I've ever seen it before.
