A Montreal-area Walmart customer created a buzz on social media after he recorded an interaction between himself and an employee. In the video, the customer can be heard asking the French-speaking employee to be served in English. The employee, feeling her English was not good enough, offered to get a colleague who could better serve him. Yet the customer persisted in his request and even switches to speaking in French. Was the video a setup? Was his social stunt a disservice to English-speaking Quebecers? Montrealers shared their thoughts with Montreal Now's Aaron Rand.
