Invented in Quebec in the 1950's, poutine's prominence across Canada and around the world has really only risen in the past 10 years or so. But Fabien-Ouellet argues that the dish's explosion in popularity comes with appropriation of Québécois food culture.
"I noticed more and more how poutine was presented as a Canadian dish, instead of a Québécois dish," he told HuffPost Canada.
"This is a problem, because Quebec has a distinct culture, a distinct society and nation."
Fabien-Ouellet points to national polls that claim poutine as one of the "Greatest Canadian Inventions" and chefs around the world who highlight the dish as "the official dish of Canada."
Wendy's, when introducing poutine to their menu in 2012, even went as far as launching a "Poutition," asking Canadians to vote to make poutine the "National Food Of Canada."
Fabien-Ouellet is not the first to discuss the role "Canadization" has played on poutine.
Six years ago, Montreal chef Chuck Hughes told Toronto Life magazine that he's "concerned" about how poutine has become known as a Canadian dish.
"It’s totally NOT a Canadian dish. It’s Québécois!" he said.
The more they openly discriminate against whites like this the more they confirm their own inferiority, why else would whites need to be handicapped so the rest can compete if that's not the case?
