Pierre Karl Peladeau’s So-Called Economic Credibility and PQ Becomes a Pro-Corporate Party Like Everyone Else

By ck, on March 15th, 2014

Tweet

After reading through a week’s worth of news articles, columnists and the twitter machine, there appears to be one common theme; Peladeau Jr. was recruited to provide economic credibility to the Parti-Quebecois to mainly the business community.  Furthermore, according to a PQ campaign ad, Pauline Marois is featured alone walking a hallway  (which . . . → Read More: Pierre Karl Peladeau’s So-Called Economic Credibility and PQ Becomes a Pro-Corporate Party Like Everyone Else

By ck, on March 9th, 2014

Tweet

Boys n girls, where do I start?  Ok, it’s official, Peladeau Jr is now running in the riding of St-Jerome in the upcoming Quebec election.  I don’t know whether to laugh or to be pissed?

For openers, the humour.  As many recall, Peladeau Jr  and Sun Media launched Sun TV News Network shortly . . . → Read More: Pierre Karl Peladeau Running For PQ? Rene-Levesque Must Be Rolling In His Grave -UPDATE

Quebecor And RLQ’s Chou-Chou, Eric Duhaime Has Hit a New Low–Enough With The Canadian Arrogant Complacency!

By ck, on October 30th, 2011

Tweet

Yes, that would be the same Eric Duhaime, the one who begged the feds, not once, but twice, to somehow intervene in the construction scandal woes in la Belle province, a problem that dates decades that needs systemic changes that not even the feds can touch.  That same scandal that ol’ Chrissie Paradis . . . → Read More: Quebecor And RLQ’s Chou-Chou, Eric Duhaime Has Hit a New Low–Enough With The Canadian Arrogant Complacency!

Quebecor Paranoia Grows-Demands CBC-Radio Canada To Remove Certain Offending Portions From Web Site

By ck, on October 21st, 2011

Tweet

Not long ago, Jymn covered the CBC, coming armed with certain facts about Quebecor.  A few things Quebecor won’t tell us. Let’s refresh our memories, here.

Quebecor has received more than half a billion dollars in direct and indirect subsidies and benefits from Canadian taxpayers over the past three years, yet it is not . . . → Read More: Quebecor Paranoia Grows-Demands CBC-Radio Canada To Remove Certain Offending Portions From Web Site

Poor Pierre Karl Peladeau. Playing the victim again. Paranoid, too.

By Jymn, on October 20th, 2011

Tweet

Most likely spurred by the facts presented by the CBC about Quebecor’s welfare habit, the media chain’s chief came out firing today against the ‘state broadcaster’. Problem is, Peladeau came off wimpy and whiny, somehow befitting a news chain known for its self victimization and pouting. Not only that, there was a whiff of paranoia . . . → Read More: Poor Pierre Karl Peladeau. Playing the victim again. Paranoid, too.

Good to see CBC fighting back against Quebecor’s petty attacks

By Jymn, on October 19th, 2011

You want to piss off a Conservative, come armed with facts (emphasis mine).

What Quebecor won’t tell you about its attacks on the public broadcaster

For more than three years, Quebecor has been using its newspapers, and more recently, its SunNews Network TV license to pursue a campaign against CBC/Radio-Canada. But there are some . . . → Read More: Good to see CBC fighting back against Quebecor’s petty attacks

Another blow for Sun News Network. Loses preferred access to more than three million Canadian TV screens.

By Jymn, on August 19th, 2011

Tweet

While QMI outlets like to brag about how Fox News North (AKA Sun News Network) is ‘smoking‘ its news rivals, things aren’t looking so rosy for the right wing propaganda channel. This October, the network will lose its over the air free access; it will only be seen by those subscribers whose cable company . . . → Read More: Another blow for Sun News Network.

Trouble In Pequiste Paradise–This Time Over That White Elephant For a Non-Existent NHL Franchise

By ck, on June 7th, 2011

Tweet

I always knew this would happen eventually. Perhaps not over that ridiculous proposed hockey amphitheatre of Regis Labeaume’s in Quebec City for the non-existent resurrection of the Quebec Nordiques, but I knew that despite Pauline Marois’s whopping 93% approval vote at her leadership review last April, that the knives would still be continuing . . . → Read More: Trouble In Pequiste Paradise–This Time Over That White Elephant For a Non-Existent NHL Franchise

Quebecor Not Even Confident About Fox News North Being Offered On Its’ Own Cable Provider?

By ck, on March 22nd, 2011

Tweet

I just caught Sandra Dee Crux’s post. She’s just livid, I tell ya! Livid!  Apparently, some cable providers are hesitant about carrying the new Fox News North.   That’s what’s gotten ol’ Sandra Dee’s knickers in a bunch.  It also appears that ol’ Chuckles Adler, who apparently is just dying to go on the . . . → Read More: Quebecor Not Even Confident About Fox News North Being Offered On Its’ Own Cable Provider?

Well, here’s another tea-baggy con who can’t seem to hold down a job. It appears that KKKory has resigned from Quebecor and Fox News North.

Pierre-Karl Peladeau and Gilles Duceppe, as well as the mayor of Quebec City, Regis Lebeaume, all have one common goal; to bring an NHL franchise back to Quebec City. In order to accomplish this, NHL commissioner, Gary Bettman has made clear to Lebeaume that a new arena is essential before he can even . . . → Read More: Peladeau’s Fox News North, Duceppe’s New Reason For Sovereignty: All About the Politics of Hockey–Some Questions

Oh yes! As we all heard, Kory Teneycke ended his rather short tenure at the CBC in favour of  taking over as Vice-President of Development at Quebecor.  And already, he seems to be working fairly quickly.

The former chief spokesman for Prime Minister Stephen Harper is spearheading a bid by Quebecor Inc. to . . . → Read More: Should Have Known Kory Teneycke Could Do More Damage After Leaving the CBC–(Update)
