In France, the 'tollé' is often the first step toward a 'manifestation' (street protest). The French media loves this word because it captures the 'esprit de contradiction' (spirit of contradiction) of the people. In Quebec, 'susciter un tollé' is frequently used in debates regarding the 'Loi 101' (language law) or secularism. It reflects the passionate nature of Quebecois political identity. In the complex political landscape of Belgium, a decision by the federal government can often 'susciter un tollé' in one linguistic community (Flemish or Walloon) but not the other. In Senegalese journalism, this phrase is used to describe public reactions to social changes or international influences, often reflecting a strong sense of community values.
