POURQUOI DUPLESSIS EST INFRÉQUENTABLE Je ne suis pas scandalisé du fait que @E_Duhaime prenne une photo devant la statue de Maurice Duplessis. C'est René Lévesque qui l'avait installée là en 1977. L'important est de savoir qu'outre quelques bons coups, Duplessis retarda de 25 ans la révolution tranquille et fut, à son époque, un des autocrates les plus corrompus et antidémocratique du continent. J'en parle en détails dans le premier tome de Lévesque/Trudeau, mais voici un texte qui résume l'homme à grands traits. jflisee.org/de-rehabilitons-…

Dé-réhabilitons Duplessis (version intégrale) - Le blogue et les balados de Jean-François Lisée

Duplessis avait beaucoup de défauts, a dit François Legault, mais il « défendait la nation québécoise ». Éric Duhaime, le jour de son assermentation, a pris la pose devant la statue de Duplessis....

“I only like two oceans: the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. I’m not going to put Trump or America on any other ocean but these two.“ Yet another friendly reminder that the sitting President of the United States is insane.

By the narrowest of margins in several cases, and with a participation rate of 30-35 per cent.

L’Alberta a voté OUI à huit des neuf autres questions. La démarche albertaine a toujours été autonomiste, jamais indépendantiste.

En 2021 et en 2019 le PLC a gagné avec seulement 32% du vote tout en perdant le vote populaire. Pourtant les journalistes n’ont pas parler de manque de légitimité.

En prime, il y a toujours cinq partis représentés par des députés à la Chambre des Communes, contrairement au Québec où il en reste quatre.

Il y avait cinq partis sur le bulletin de vote fédéral en 2025. Le PLC et le PCC ont néanmoins chacun rallié plus de 40% du vote.

@ChantalHbert vous n’êtes pas tout à fait honnête. Combien de fois dans le passé le Québec pouvait voter pour 5 partis différents? Il serait très surprenant que des gouvernements soient élus dans le futur avec des scores de 40% .
