I think "reprise" is actually an anglicized French word … to re-take, or re-grasp.
I’ve posted this YouTube clip because I think it’s so damned funny, and because it also in a strange way fills me with pride that from my Anglo perspective (yet one that is arguably very familiar with Quebecois culture), it exemplifies in parody so much of what is good and right about Montreal and Quebec.
It’s my personal opinion that Quebec and Quebecois have done a smashing job over the past 25 or so years in affirming their language, identity and culture in the face of some very large and ubiquitous challenges.
