Bonjour tout le monde,
Je me prépare à entrer en onde dans quelques minutes pour Les Mordus. Mais je tenais à vous envoyer ce message. C’est très rare que je publie des messages vidéo de moi même sur mon compte X, mais cette fois-ci, c’est important.
Ce moment devrait nous amener collectivement à faire une pause et à reconnaître que les choses sont allées trop loin. Il est temps d’apaiser le ton, de calmer le jeu.
Je n’étais pas un admirateur de Charlie Kirk. Je ne le suivais pas, et si j’ai pu partager certaines de ses positions, j’étais en désaccord avec plusieures d’entre elles, notamment sur le droit de porter des armes et sur bien d’autres sujets. Mais, au fond, cela n’a aucune importance ici.
Nous vivons à une époque où de plus en plus de gens — particulièrement des jeunes — croient que la violence extrême est une réponse acceptable à des idées qui leur déplaisent.
Et si nous continuons dans cette direction, plus personne n’osera prendre la parole, sur aucun sujet. C’est précisément ce que voulait le meurtrier de Charlie Kirk, et ce que veulent ceux qui pensent comme lui.
Un homme a perdu la vie. Des enfants ont perdu leur père. Une épouse a perdu son mari. Ce qui s’est passé est inacceptable.

From my home community. Still unresolved 16+years later. 😔
17-year-old SHANNON ALEXANDER and her 16-year-old best friend MAISY ODJICK seemed to be in good spirits when they attended a school dance at the Maniwaki Arena in Maniwaki, Quebec on September 5, 2008.
After a sleepover at Shannon’s home that night, the girls just seemed to disappear.
Initially presumed by police to be runaways the girls had left behind their purses, wallets, all identification and Shannon’s essential medication.
If you have any information about their disappearance please reach out to police or contact Crimestoppers.

More A+ quotes from Doug Ford today:
On Danielle Smith defying her colleagues: "That's her choice. I have a little different theory: protect your jurisdiction but country comes first."
On Trump: "He's going full tilt at Canadians as a whole... United we stand, divided we fall."
If you want to echo Trump's disinformation about Canada, fill your boots.
On the other hand, if you're interested in facts and evidence, read this article, click the links to the sources, and speak to the experts it quotes.

Following the devastating terror attack in New Orleans, the RCMP is asking Canadians to report any information which could be pertinent to the FBI’s investigation. We will continue to support our American counterparts as their investigation unfolds.
A passenger may be denied boarding or removed from the aircraft when such behaviour occurs. If it happens after departure, the aircraft may be diverted. Police will meet the aircraft upon arrival and the passenger could be arrested, charged and prosecuted.
