👀 📈 Les Québécois en faveur du consentement présumé pour le don d'organes et de tissus. 72% POUR, avant même la répartition des indécis. Une politique très *simple* qui sauverait littéralement des vies. Ma chronique Noovo Info pour plus d'info 👇

C'est faux. Art. 318. Loi électorale du Canada dicte : aucun gagnant, tenue d'une élection partielle 👇

(Le hasard est appliquée ailleurs, tout comme l'âge (!) peut l'être, mais au 🇨🇦 on refait l'élection)

Non, les jeunes hommes ne sont pas de droite.

Et la catégorie des jeunes femmes (<34 ans) est nettement plus distincte quant au choix électoral.

Should 🇨🇦 merge with the 🇺🇸?
We do have quite old data on this question!

Schwartz (1967) shows that in 1943, 21% of Canadians wanted to join the US.

By 1950s, this % decline to 10%.

Remained stable in the 1960s.

My grandmother would have celebrated her birthday yesterday.
She had to drop out before even finishing her *primary* education and worked hard in St-Michel's shops (Mtl) at 10 years old.
She gave me the will to finish high school.
And I think of her before every University lecture that I give.

We organized a citizens’ assembly in Longueuil (06/2023) on democratic reforms at the municipal level.🗳️

Here's a brief summary of the experiment👇
