Bravo à RDC de vraiment mettre des journalistes pour nous faire gober une définition ultra technique et dont le but c’est quoi? Nous dire que l’industrie agro-alimentaire ne nous fourre pas vraiment?

C’est vraiment ça le but?

I wouldn't put it past Trump to have that plaque removed. . .

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

Quebec language politics have become increasingly disconnected from reality Language politics in Quebec have been co-opted by populists interpreting stats to suit pre-established narratives for political gain.

“Quebec already has serious problems with xenophobia, despite its obvious dependency on immigration. Quebecers — many of whom are the immigrants who sustain our population growth and work some of the toughest jobs in the province — are sick and tired of being the ethno-nationalists’ whipping boy.”

Gender-based violence is an everyday reality, and it starts with minimizing misogyny As we highlight 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence and the upcoming anniversary of the Montreal massacre, can we take a moment to reflect on all the different forms this violence takes?

“As a society, we continue to deny the straight line between the minimization of everyday violence against women and the more horrific forms of misogyny that eventually materialize. The groundwork for gender-based violence is laid out daily in a world that allows misogyny to be normalized.”
