Alice MoranPANELIST
It's the most Quebecois thing ever? Mm-hmm.
Alice MoranPANELIST
Okay, so it is a late-night hot dog poutine at La Belle Provence, and afterwards, you split it dark with a man named Francois outside, and he doesn't speak much English, but the English he knows is filthy.
Alice MoranPANELIST
That sounds awesome.
Alice MoranPANELIST
Yeah, it's happened to me twice.
Charles-Alexandre ThéorêtGUEST
So that's exactly what they're trying to do.
Charles-Alexandre ThéorêtGUEST
seduce voters by showing them that they're just like just like us well they hate putin like us as you said in the introduction so the last thing a politician wants to uh to do during campaign is to look arrogant or out of touch so going to a diner or greasy spoon rather than a fancy restaurant is a to meet regular folks is a good way to do that even though well we all know that uh In regular and normal time, they would be more likely to be spotted at Tucky in Montreal or Louis Hébert in Quebec rather than La Belle Province, maybe.
Gordon LambieCORRESPONDENT
So why is it that the Poutine steamed hot dog combo seems to be such a popular choice with politicians?
Charles-Alexandre ThéorêtGUEST
Well, it's telling that you choose this combo to use as an example, because Steam.Dog and Putin, they're actually the two symbols that come up the most often.
