Bambi just came across an article published today in the Journal de Montr\u00e9al<\/em> authored by Mr. Louis Desch\u00eanes (https:\/\/bit.ly\/42dp1eW<\/a>). It is entitled “D\u00e9tester Martineau et Bock-C\u00f4t\u00e9 est devenu un crit\u00e8re d\u2019embauche<\/em>” [Hating Martineau and Bock-C\u00f4t\u00e9 has become a hiring criterion<\/em>]. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following a quick English translation, thanks to Bambi’s faithful internet friend called Mr. Google Translate<\/em>, Bambi will share a BEAUTIFUL older French-Canadian song about the meaning of love by Mr. Bruno Pelletier. It is called Do Love<\/strong> [“Aime<\/strong>” in French]. If you are interested, an English translation will follow the song. How sad that those Estrie older workers and\/or younger students forgot how to keep social love alive in their hearts in addition to respecting freedom of expression in their country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of note, Qu\u00e9bec has always been historically leaning to the left. Sadly, this beautiful left, or healthy socialism, seems to have been forgotten. Bambi misses it. Unfortunately, this politically socially relevant, needed and beautiful let has been hijacked by a radical wokeism, which insists on dividing us, pitting us against each other, cancelling us (if we criticize its excesses or question its ideological orthodoxies), hijacking our institutions, and turning our times into collectively insane ones with much political correctness and intellectual intolerance of the opinions of others. When will we wake up to defend the principle of freedom of expression for ALL once and for all?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The publication to boost the job offer as a communication officer of the organization Solidarit\u00e9 populaire Estrie makes our columnists react<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hating columnists Richard Martineau and Mathieu Bock-C\u00f4t\u00e9 has become a hiring criterion for a non-profit organization in Estrie, which is looking for a communications agent. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Do you grind your teeth reading Richard Martineau and Mathieu Bock-C\u00f4t\u00e9? This offer is for you!\u201d we read this week on the Facebook page of Solidarit\u00e9 populaire Estrie (SPE), in a message targeting the popular columnists of the Journal.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The publication made to promote the job offer of the organization \u201cfor the collective defense of rights\u201d has since been deleted, then replaced by a new one that did not mention the columnists. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am now a hiring criterion!\u201d quipped Mathieu Bock-C\u00f4t\u00e9 (MBC) by posting the screenshot of the message on his Twitter account.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hate message<\/em><\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contacted by the Journal de Montr\u00e9al, he saw in this publication a hateful message, \u201ceven a ritual to vomit on two people who have become targets because of their opinion pieces\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you want to get into the business you have to tap on these two, it\u2019s the entry Pinata. If you hit Martineau and Bock-C\u00f4t\u00e9, you’re part of the club,\u201d he notes. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also associates these behaviors with the movement of the Quebec left. “It’s very woke. […] It is almost a sign of virtue to insult us. And they took the audacity further by making this hatred against us a hiring criterion.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the information collected on its website, the SPE organization was set up in 1986 to promote and defend the economic, social and cultural interests of the people of Estrie with the aim of achieving greater social justice. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unions and students<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The list of member groups is mainly made up of union and student associations as well as community groups in Estrie. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Initially, Mathieu Bock-C\u00f4t\u00e9 believed that it was a voluntary association made up of \u201ca few cranks\u201d, before realizing that there were serious organizations behind the SPE. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We should ask each of these organizations if they endorse these comments,” he said.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For his part, Richard Martineau also finds it disturbing that obtaining a job depends on the allegiances or opinions of a candidate. For him, it’s like going back to the 50s. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you were a communist, you were barred from certain jobs and there if you like certain columnists you cannot have the job [\u2026] I understand the irony of the matter, they are looking for people from the left, but I find that rather inappropriate. I’m not sure that the governments that fund these kinds of organizations would be very happy with that, \u201dconcludes Martineau.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
