Says the man who helped block highly qualified women candidates in 2017. Then, sought a second 5 year term. Delaying by 10 long yrs the ascension of the first woman to the position. He is sorry not sorry.

I am sorry to see that despite years of talk, gender inequality is on full display at the #UNGA General Debate. Less than 10% of speakers this week are women. This is unacceptable – especially when we know gender equality delivers for peace, climate action and much more.

Hydro-Québec a fait des acrobaties comptables pour se soumettre à la volonté de François Legault de ne pas augmenter les tarifs résidentiels au-delà de 3%. Selon un document déposé à la Régie de l’énergie, la société d’État aurait eu besoin de plus. #polqc

Tariffs on geopolitical rivals raise prices and hurt consumers in exchange for some form of superiority down the road. Tariffs on friends and allies hurt for no good reason.

It is even worse policy when you impose tariffs on an allied country with which you have manufacturing integrated supply chains. Honestly, it is baffling how something so simple and clear still needs relentless advocacy.
