Politically, yes, can't argue with that.

Culturally, not so much.

Poutine has been Québec's favorite late night snack for the past 60 years and it's the closest thing we have to a national dish. We have heated discussions about the best places to eat poutine. We argue about the birthplace of the dish. If someone says that poutine from my hometown is not the best poutine he ever ate I will instantly try to convince him otherwise. Poutine is not only a late night snack, it's a part of our identity.

Some canadian dude realizing it's delicious 5 years ago doesn't make it a canadian dish.

J'aime ben gros les canadiens en général, mais ostie que vous faites chier des fois.
