英文注释:

"A relic of British pomp and pageantry, the marching band of the Royal 22nd Regiment performs during a flag-lowering at the Citadel in Quebec City, with the Château Frontenac Hotel as a backdrop. Founded in 1914 by French Canadians, the Royal 22nd has served overseas in both World Wars, in Korea, and in the United Nations' peacekeeping. Most members are French-speaking Quebecers, and if the province breaks away, they will face a dilemma: Resign, join a new army, or exit Quebec as an intact Canadian unit?"

—From "Quebec Quandary," November 1997, National Geographic magazine
