On Thursday, I was having a physio session when the physio (a younger woman, of anglophone Chinese descent) noticed my Winnie-the-Pooh. She commented favourably about him and was impressed that he had been made by my Granny.
In contrast, her assistant, an older Québécois man, had no idea what we were talking about. I have a sneaking suspicion that Winnie-the-Pooh was too “anglais” back in the day, and by the time Disney started marketing the franchise, he wasn’t in the market. Rather interesting though.

Winnie-the-Pooh is Winnie l'ourson in Québec. And he's yellow, not brown like your Pooh bear.
