I ran into this problem when I first went to France. Apparently my college French is way out out of date.

If that is the case, then you will fit in nicely in Montréal, where a gentleman on the street addressed me as 'Monseigneur'. (As he did this in preparation for a request for a contribution to his personal recreation fund, I suspect that he was trying to butter me up. Still, I was so surprised that my powdered wig fell off.)

LOL! The powdered wig might have been what prompted him.

Montreal is a beautiful city. I was there for an afternoon once but really wanted to see more than I got to.
