CARDINAL PAUL-EMILE LÉGER (1904-1991)  By Bernard Bujold - Paul-Émile Léger died on 13 November 1991 and to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his death, a special ceremony was celebrated on this date in 2016 at the Marie Reine du Monde Cathedral.  I am not a Catholic practitioner but I have several friends who are; and I love visiting the churches that I consider to be buildings worthy of the best museums in the world with exceptional works of art. I therefore accepted the invitation to attend the ceremony in honor of Cardinal Léger.  If I have never met Cardinal Leger in person, but I had the pleasure of being invited to dinner by Jules Léger, the Cardinal's brother. A memorable souvenir... I was then a young journalist and Mr. Léger was the Governor General of Canada.  Cardinal Léger was a man of the Quebec Church who was nicknamed "The Prince of the Church". He was Archbishop of Montreal from 1950 to 1967 and Cardinal. He was noticed by Montrealers as the ...

THE COLORS OF VICTORY

THE COLORS OF VICTORY  By Bernard Bujold- If red was the color of "war", white will henceforth be the one of "peace and victory"!  The two caps in Donald Tump's colors have evidently become the favorite items among all my collectibles! I will consider these caps as the symbol of the victory of positive thinking.  If you can have a dream, you can also realize it.  And as Donald says: "If you can think, why not have grandiose and victorious thoughts?"

THE DEATH OF THE MEDIA

THE DEATH OF THE MEDIA...  By Bernard Bujold -  The US Presidential Election 2016 confirmed one more time that the traditional media are dying!  The 2016 prediction by the media and their journalists about a victory by Hillary Clinton is the confirmation that if the media are saying one thing, you should do the other thing and you will have a sure bet...  We knew since the last 10 years that the media were dying financially but now we also know that the profession of journalist is also dying. But there is a rebirth and it is the Internet and social media. However, those media are belonging to the people and not to a close group.  Following the US Presidential election 2016, two conclusions are to be remembered:  1. "We got a lot more election ahead of us" - Mark Zuckerberg  Facebook  2. To be a winner in today world, one need to be able to put his finger in the wind and to have the natural instinct of seeing what is going on. A life withou...

THE VICTORY OF DONALD TRUMP

THE VICTORY OF DONALD TRUMP - By Bernard Bujold - I was confident that Donald Trump would win the Presidency of United States since June 2015, and I was writing about it on my Facebook page since then.  I am a very happy man about the victory of Donald Trump as it is also the victory of the Positive thinking philosophy, a philosophy in which I am a firm believer since my teenage days. The basic of the Positive thinking philosophy is simple: "If you could think it, you could also do it. "  All my personal life has been lived according to the Positive thinking philosophy.  This philosophy was inspired during the 1950 by the lates Dale Carnegie, Norman Vincent Peale, Napoleon Hill, Robert H. Schuller and, after them, by all those business leaders from Ray Crock (McDonald) to Steve Jobs (Apple), Frank Stronach (Magna International), Paul Desmarais (Power Corporation) or Pierre Peladeau (Quebecor); as well as by many others.  I started observing Donald Trump in th...
