Bill C-32 introduced by the Liberal Party makes French the official language of Quebec at the Federal level, yet does not make English the official language of BC, Ontario, Alberta, Saskatchewan..etc)? Are English speakers delegated to second class citizens in Canada? This bill not only throws...

The Federal Liberals are literally throwing us under the bus. Many of us in Montreal speak no French. We were schooled entirely in English. I hope fellow English speaking Quebeckers voice their displeasure come Election Day. This policy change crosses the line. What about the right to be...

The government should definitely increase capacity at the Bell Center to at least 18,000 fans in order to allow for an even playing field. Otherwise, the Golden Knights have the clear advantage due to the significantly higher number of fans cheering them on. Quebec Government pushing to have...

The former New Jersey governor has a point. Biden is a weak leader. Former New Jersey Governor slams Biden for allowing Canada COVID double standard

They’re lucky that all they’re getting is a ticket. I once witnessed a high end SUV that was illegally parked in a handicapped zone getting vandalized. Montreal police hand out 185 tickets in two days to drivers illegally using disabled parking spaces

This one takes the cake. I was previously informed by the Gazette that my comments were no longer welcome as they don’t allow comments from those of us who have views that are right of center. Now they’ve gone completely over the top. They’re starting to post safety/health related messages...

Finally! What took so long??? Some U.S. states had mask burning ceremonies and re-opened their restaurant dining rooms months ago. Why are we always behind with the times and playing second fiddle all the time? Indoor Restaurant Dining Rooms to re-open in Montreal and Laval

I agree that the College can and should ask students to show up in person to write their exams. That they can do and they can also flunk anyone who doesn’t show up. What they can’t do is flunk anyone who doesn’t wear a mask. Anyone can refuse you entry into a building if you refuse to wear a...

With Legault’s new Bill 96, many of the rights that we enjoy now in Quebec would be lost. For instance, he would outlaw a current requirement that all judges in Quebec be bilingual. For those of us who don’t speak French (myself included), this would place us in a precarious and unjust situation...

It appears that individual rights will no longer apply in Quebec. They are being replaced with collective rights instead. I guess from this point on, the province will be known as “The People’s Republic of Quebec”. Democracy is no more. This is precisely the reason why I never bothered to...

Why does Miss Pelosi not give up her faith if she does not respect the teachings of the Catholic Church? What purpose does it serve her by pretending to be a Catholic, especially given that she is prohibited from receiving communion. Does she really want to be an outcast? Is she for real? I...

I was at the rally yesterday with my two kids. The message to our government was loud and clear. We want our freedom back. We’re all tired of having government (big brother) control our lives. Freedom needs to triumph over fear. Huge Protest Against COVID-19 Measures in Montreal

This is presicely the reason why I never bothered to learn any French despite being born and raised in Montreal. Having my civil rights violated due to the French language just makes learning the language a huge turn-off for me. I have zero motivation to ever learn the language. Furthermore...

This is completely unacceptable. Last week an IGA customer was denied access to an IGA supermarket in Quebec simply because she had a medical condition that prevented her from wearing a mask. The government decree that mandated masks in all indoor public spaces in Quebec made exceptions for...

So the government has decided to forcibly take a school away from the English speaking students and "GIVE" it to the French speaking students. So the students who are now enrolled at Riverdale High will be left without a school. I guess the French speaking students have a higher priority as they...

They had it right the first time. Montreal City Hall had initially planned to rename a street in Little Burgundy after the late Daisy Sweeney. However, very recently they backtracked and decided against the plan. It was fine to rename University street downtown after Robert Bourassa, a...

Read more: veteran, gatineau, hospital | CTV Ottawa News The hospital may have a lawsuit on their hands here. Bill 142 guarantees all residents of Quebec health care services in either English or French. What makes this case baffling is that this institution is designated an English language...

In comparing bill 101 with the new Quebec Values Charter, it's interesting to analyze which of the two pose a greater violation of civil rights. Once bill 101 was passed, public service workers that did not speak French in many cases were forced to leave their jobs. For many of us who were...

The changing face of McGill medical students The McGill Admissions Committee has some serious questions to answer. McGill is my former alma matter and after reading this article, I am ashamed to tell folks now that I am a graduate of McGill. How can the admissions committee pass up students...

I never thought I'd be boycotting Walmart, but after reading their flyer this week, I have no chioce. The local stores here in Montreal such as Canadian Tire, IGA, Metro ...etc have all acknowledged Canada Day in this week's flyers. Walmart which is a foreign company operating in Canada, has...
