Drimonis: I’m not a guest here. This is my home. It’s Kim Thúy’s home too We all have the right to both love and criticize Quebec.

“Thúy has been a Quebecer longer than Bock-Côté has been alive. Why is she being treated by him as a foreigner, branded as ungrateful the minute she criticizes policies & rhetoric that deeply impact Quebec’s reputation and many Quebecers’ sense of belonging?”

Huge shoutout to the Montreal Children's Hospital @hme-mch.bsky.social after an ER visit yesterday (kid will be fine). It's not a place you want to be, but the kindness and warmth of the medical personnel was incredible. Grateful. ❤️

I’m just begging you: Before you write your post about why the media isn’t covering something, *Google it* and look at the “news” tab. Please.

Toula Drimonis: How exactly would cutting services save Quebec health care? When Geneviève Biron was introduced as the head of Santé Québec, she promised “an innovative approach.” Cutting services we barely have access to would be anything but innovative.

“If slashing $1.5 B in healthcare services is Geneviève Biron’s miraculous solution, I could have done that for free and saved us all more than half a million dollars in Biron’s salary expenses.”

There’s a white board with a list of deadlines - copy deadline at 11am, audio deadline at 11:15, and on-air at 11:30am. There is a woman’s back as she writes on the board.

Fascinating interview on Quebec's most popular talk show, Tout le monde en parle, with Simon Paré-Poupart, author of Ordures!, a book about his job as a garbage man.
Having done university studies in sociology, he dissects in captivating ways how we waste so much, how his co-workers are treated...

I’m not wondering “how things are” on the other site. I don’t want to see screen grabs of the other site. I’m unfollowing every time I see one and frankly, it’s liberating. Because I know those who can’t resist sharing will just keep on sharing.
