Haha funny enough my ex-wife is Quebecois, and I lived in Montreal for many years with her. You're right; English Canada has a different value system with this shit. I have given up caring about the looks we get in public with this young skinny blonde hanging off my arm. They can think what they want, we don't care.
Older men, particularly those who can bring success to the table, with (often significantly) younger women (as wives or secondary partners) has been the dynamic for thousands of years. You could argue it's at the base of biology and genetic selection. Human nature isn't so easily changed by some wagging fingers.
French culture never stopped embracing it. Hell, there are a number of well established rules in French culture regarding how wives and mistresses are to be treated.
I heard something funny recently. Men at the top of French politics and business who don't have mistresses, will often FAKE that they do, to keep up appearances, or people might think there's something wrong with them, lol.
