Ce n'est pas une conspiration

When…the ITN report was hailed as a great image, should the team have stood up and publicly said, “Hey, hang on a minute. It wasn’t quite like that.” In an ideal world, yes…. But given the commercial pressures of modern TV and the fact that to have spoken out would hardly endear the ITN crew to their employers and might even have endangered their jobs, it is understandable but not forgivable that no one chose to do so.

saisissant

On a cru que les anglophones finiraient par se franciser lorsqu’ils quitteraient l’île, mais c’est le contraire qui s’est produit: ce sont les francophones qui s’anglicisent et qui contribuent à augmenter la tension linguistique sur des banlieues de plus en plus éloignées. Les anglophones, même s’ils sont ultra-minoritaires, réussissent à imposer leur langue partout où ils vont. Ils trouvent toujours un petit Québécois à-plat-ventriste pour leur parler en anglais.

Et si on arrêtait d'avoir peur?

Songeons maintenant à la charge qui aurait été contenue dans la phrase de M Dupuis si un député péquiste avait utilisé les propos de Mme St-Pierre à l’égard d’un député libéral, fils d’immigrant. La tornade ! Je refais ce constat, presque banal, des deux poids deux mesures utilisés en matière d’intolérance au Québec. Les souverainistes (qui comprennent quelques intolérants, je puis en témoigner) sont systématiquement victimes de présomption d’intolérance. Les fédéralistes, qui en comptent aussi beaucoup, sont systématiquement présumés blancs comme neige à cet égard.

  • All quieted on the word front (pdf) [he] therefore is telling us, loud and clear, that he not only is a dedicated opponent of freedom of speech, but he believes with equal passion that it is critically important to safeguard the right to lie not in the interests of freedom of expression, which he strongly opposes, as just demonstrated, but rather in one special case: to lie in service of power and privilege.
