You seem to be trying really hard to put words in my mouth. I haven't the slightest authority to speak to Quebec culture, which is why I qualified my original post by saying 'Acajack's Quebec' - in other words, the version of Quebec as described in this thread by you.
Based on what you have written, it does not seem like Quebec is a multicultural society. It seems this is true for other parts of Canada as well. I think Newfoundland is quite similar to Quebec in that sense - there is as Quebec identity or a Newfoundland identity and you don't just automatically become a part of it.
For what it's worth, I like multicultural Ontario. It doesn't feel generic to me at all and it is most definitely something that is a part of my identity. Being a classic Ontarian, I've naturally considered that identity to be Canadian, which I guess is not quite accurate.
