“The National Post and Toronto Sun endorsed Pierre Poilievre in the 2025 federal election, and at least 11 of Canada’s legacy news outlets endorsed the Conservatives in the six previous elections. There’s an obvious media bias towards the CPC, despite Poilievre’s claim that the opposite is true.”

“Canada’s left-leaning political parties and politicians must recognize that the only ones holding them back are themselves. There’s now officially no excuse — bold campaigns will win the day. As for Montreal, we can never sit out an election again: just like the rent, the stakes are too damn high.”

“Soraya Martinez Ferrada claiming to be a victim of ‘bike lane polarization’ — a backhanded way of saying that those who support bike lanes are extremists who can’t be reasoned with — isn’t a great look for someone who’s pitching herself as a level-headed leader for all Montrealers.”

La trumpisation du Parti québécois
Je n’hésite pas à affirmer que Paul St-Pierre Plamondon a copié plusieurs pages du manuel du fasciste de la Maison-Blanche. Et c’est inquiétant.
