      Nope.

      Stuff like this always bugged me. Probably because of my experience with the Quebec language laws.

            Bah! The supply of good bread should be protected at all costs.

                All that's going on is an insistance upon non-misleading labelling.

                If you want to make bread off-site and/or using machinery, you just need to use some other label.

                How 'bout: "Freedom bread?" or "bread d'Industrial?" or "Yankee bread?" or "Wonderbread?"

                  won't that lead consumers to believe that the ingredients differ?

                    That's why I used the disjunctive rather than conjunctive.

                      Wonder bread certainly won't have the same ingredients!

                        Actually, arrogance, smugness and insufferable moral superiority seems to be a trait mostly found among Canadians

                          Yup, that's extremely simple. Instead of writing Boulangerie on your front, you just write the name of your shop (and you arrange a shopping window so that passerbys know it's about bread). And you register yourself as a "bread supply" in the yellow pages. Tada! Anybody looking for bread will see your shop, and if they aren't bother by industrial bread, they'll buy yours.

                              How ****ing retarded is this?

                              Not only have you decided what "boulangerie" means according to some Frenchy pseudo-cultured sense, but you've also decided to enforce your view in law.

                              I don't know about you, but I'd be perfectly happy to have an electronics store call itself a boulangerie.

                              I guess if you can't face the modern world it's always possible to close your eyes and claim the cultural high ground.

                                And I'd be perfectly happy to sell a brownish beverage and call it Coca-Cola. However, that name has a reputation (that costed millions upon millions to build over the years), and I just can't do it like that.
