HAPPY HALLOWEEN 2017!  BBBBOOOoooouuuuuuu .....  SEE PHOTOS

SATURDAY EVENING WITH GOOGLE HOME -  By Bernard Bujold -  The adventure began after a dinner with friends on a Saturday night as we quarreled about the age of Viola Léger, the one who immortalized the SAGOUINE.  The new toy of the hour is GOOGLE HOME a kind of verbal robot that looks, less perfected, WINSTON of the new novel ORIGIN by Dan Brown.  Finally, we can say that GOOGLE is a little magic because we were able to easily trace, thanks to the Google Home robot, the age of Viola; rediscovered the poet poet Acadian DONAT LACROIX and his song "JOS FREDRIC"; and to complete the virtual journey with the discovery of the Acadian country singer from Hâvre St-Pierre, Carolyne Jomphe. CONCLUSION "Google Home is the robot to have among his friends, a Saturday night ..."  SEE PHOTO

ELECTIONS 2017 FOR MONTREAL MAYOR - PROJECTIONS  By Bernard Bujold -  I love politics and I like to project in advance the results of the candidate I envision winning.  I always start from my instinct using the momentum of the campaign to evaluate the winner.  I had projected Donald Trump's 2016 victory at 300 votes and he had 306; I projected in 2015 a victory by Justin Trudeau with 180 seats and he had 184; and previously in 2014, I had also projected the victory of Philippe Couillard at 70 deputies and he had 70 but, I am more discreet about him, because I did not vote for him...  As of October 25, 2017, I therefore project 45 elected on 65 for Valérie Plante, an absolute majority of 2/3 for the next mayor of Montreal!  How much will Denis Coderre will have elected? Less than 20 if we take into account the 4 or 5 elected to be independent.  Advance voting takes place on Sunday, October 29, and the official vote on Sunday, November 5.  ...

THE SEX STORM OCTOBER 2017 (continuation 1)  By Bernard Bujold -  Veteran comedian Yvon Deschamps does not see the end of the sexual storm in Quebec: "... it will never stop, that! Tomorrow, it'll be 1000, after 5000 complaints ..."  The accusations of sexual crimes continue to accumulate and, indeed, we can wonder if the police and judicial systems in Quebec will be able to satisfy the situation. A complaint of any kind can sometimes take a few years to be officially decided before the courts; imagine if there are thousands of complaints from all over Quebec... It will take a Commission of Inquiry like the Commission Gomery or Charbonneau!  Regarding JUST FOR LAUGHS, many observers say that the group is a company that does not depend on Gilbert Rozon but rather on comedians. This is true but with one big exception: the legal owner of Just for Laughs is Gilbert. And Gilbert does not want to give up for free his business and he is asking about $ 70 million to ab...

THE SEX STORM OF OCTOBER 2017 -  By Bernard Bujold -  One could call the sexual assault that is currently raging in the various media of "THE SEX STORM OF OCTOBER 2017"...  If life is a journey, it can be compared to a crossing of the ocean! I love to repeat this phrase of Shakespeare in Julius Caesar to explain my vision of life:  "There is a wave on the ocean of life, which if taken at the right moment at the shore will lead the ship to new lands full of hope and promise, but if it is missed then it will be the failure and the misery ... and sinking! "  But more down to earth, two chronicles of Saturday, October 21, in La Presse + summarizes the whole situation. The one of Michèle Ouimet and the one of Stéphane Laporte.  Good Saturday of October 2017...  VIEW MICHÈLE OUIMET  SEE STÉPHANE LAPORTE

DEBATE MAYOR OF MONTREAL 2017 - By Bernard Bujold - The debate in French between Valérie Plante and Denis Coderre Thursday, October 19, 2017 as part of the race for the mayor of Montreal clearly highlighted the difference between the two candidates but without any of the two succeeding into bringing down the opponent.  If Denis Coderre proposes the continuity of the administration of the last four years, Valérie Plante proposes a vision of change for an orientation towards the citizens and the families rather than the big companies.  The two candidates were respectful to each other and the moderator François Cardinal proved to be an excellent moderator of debate...  SEE PHOTO ALBUM

GILBERT, ERIC AND THE OTHERS...  By Bernard Bujold -  In the space of half a day, two giants of the Quebec entertainment industry have fallen to the ground completely!  First Eric Savail Wednesday morning, then early in the evening it was the turn of Gilbert Rozon.  Personally I do not know Salvail and I only met him once in my life while he was working for Julie Snyder. Since I'm not a homosexual and I was a good friend with Julie at the time, the contact did not work between Eric and me, beyond the usual greetings, at the Montreal Ritz...  In the case of Gilbert Rozon, the situation is very different because I know him very well! I met him in person dozens of times and I even discussed possible work for me with him while I was actively looking for a job after the death of Pierre Péladeau in 1998. I also attended several of his performances back stage or been at private events including one of his birthdays organized by one of his vice-presidents who knew...

BOMBARDIER GIVES FULL CONTROL TO AIRBUS - By Bernard Bujold -  Bombardier sold 50.01% of its assets in the C SERIES project to Airbus.  While some are delighted by the rescue of the Quebec company by a European giant, other observers fear the same fate for the jewel in Quebec as that experienced by Alcan ...  The new limited partnership controlled by Airbus will continue to operate with the Government of Quebec as its third largest shareholder.  And to circumvent the trade block with the United States, Airbus is committed, once the transaction is completed by the end of the second quarter of 2018, to transform its plant in Mobile, Alabama, into the assembly plant of the C Series. The aircraft that will be assembled there will be considered as US aircraft and will thus be able to escape US countervailing duties.  The strangest clause of this surprise transaction remains the two options granted to the two largest shareholders of the new limited partnership,...
