I see their are some Americans I suspect of French or Ukranian origin on this site who have a grudge against the British. For your information the word 'bloke' is similar to the American 'dude' except that it is more symbolic of a regular guy. In other words it's connotation is not as gay as 'dude'.

A slang word mainly used by French Canadians in a derogatory way towards any English speaker; irregardless of their heritage.
"Maudit bloke!"= "F*cking Englishman!" even if "maudit" means "damn, damned or Hell" it is still used in lieu of "f*ck".

A euphemism for English-speaking person. Used by French-Canadians to describe their English-speaking counterparts, especially those living in the Canadian province of Quebec.
It is considered derogatory, despite the fact that the term is a direct adaptation of the neutral English term "bloke;" i.e.: just an average guy.
It is perhaps the counterpart term to "Pepsi" (or "pepper"), which Anglophones occasionally describe French-Canadians, especially in Quebec, is a "Pepsi," (because of their perceived ignorance about sound nutrition, and their alleged penny-wise preference for the upstart Pepsi over Coca-Cola, back when Pepsi cost the same but was sold in a larger bottle).
