Rest assured, dear reader, you don’t have to feel guilty for you a little fucking the by-election in Arthabaska.
The ballot was set for August 11, but voting in advance begins on Sunday.
This election would be perfectly banal if it did not include as an issue of knowing whether Éric Duhaime and his conservative party will or not their entry into the National Assembly.
Truth
Mr. Duhaime makes me think a little about Denis Coderre: hard not to find him sympathetic, but it spoils when you look closely at the goods.
Certainly, he has long had complex relationships with the truth.
And it doesn’t work out as they get older.
For public opinion in general, Mr. Duhaime argues the importance of giving a parliamentary representation in the current of conservative and libertarian thought that he represents.
But when he does retail, on the ground, when he meets voters in the flesh, he practically tells them only one thing: no third referendum.
Hence the question: we vote for a precise philosophy, which has legitimate things to say on all the issues, or we vote for someone who takes up the used cassette of the PLQ?
I told you about Eric Duhaime’s finasseries above.
You have already seen these posters to promote a show, in which we use a sentence or a piece of sentence of a personality.
Mr. Duhaime does the same, but pushes the plug even further.
In a leaflet praising his candidacy, he resumed the observation of the ex-mayor of Victoriaville, Alain Rayes, who noted that the 15% support collected during the last elections by the party of Mr. Duhaime did not earn him any siege.
Basically true, but this is found in a partisan leaflet, giving the false impression that Mr. Rayes maintains Mr. Duhaime.
The ex-mayor of Victoriaville had to explain that this was not the case.
Think about two seconds: finding that our voting mode is not perfect and that it produced distortions which, in 2022, harmed the Conservative Party, as they harmed other formerly parties, is it the same thing to say that it is necessary to vote for Mr. Duhaime on August 11?
Of course not.
My colleague Yasmine Abdelfadel also saw these words out of context and put at the service of a supposed support to Mr. Duhaime.
My colleague had to restore the facts.
Same thing for the columnist Chantal Hébert.
Merchandise
As wacky as it may seem, the head of the PQ, who nevertheless presents his own candidate in Arthabaska, also finds himself in the promotional leaflet of Mr. Duhaime for having simply said that his point of view deserved to be heard.
And this is just a preview of the well -documented shortcuts of the Conservative candidate. Hours of pleasure if you immerse it.
Arthabaska voters should take the time to examine the goods.
Otherwise, it will take four years to return it to the store.
