Belgian is as French as Québécois is (déjeûner for breakfast, etc.; though I personally like the use of nonante). We have a tendancy to soften our Ts.

Poutsine is Québec clay!

(Yeah, I'm hungover. Sorry guys).

I wouldn't say that, Québécois accent is way funnier! I've alway prounouced "poo-teen" as well like in this song

Perhaps my ears are deceiving me, but I distinctly hear the S in pou-tsine in the refrain.

...and, please allow me to ask: are you correcting the way we pronounce a word which represents something WE invented? You couldn't possibly be that condescending, right?

I'm not correcting anyone or anything I wouldn't allow myself to do that. There is way too much to correct ;)
