Anglo groups hold own school board hearings
Anglo groups excluded from official hearings on Bill 40, the school board law, have been holding their own hearings under the banner APPELE-Quebec – the Alliance for the Promotion of Public English-language Education. Not surprisingly, I haven’t found any mention of this group or its “hearings” on the franco media side.

Look I dont have any truck or trade with CAQ, but APPELE_Quebec is a perfect example of “astroturfing”. For the most part its a creation of the Provincial Liberal Party, QESBA and QCGN.
Who are the self appointed spokespeople for all things Anglo. In my mind it is disingenuous to see people speaking for the english speaking community when ultimately their talking about is a paycheque or a groups funding. From what I can figure out the QESBA ( English Schools Boards Associations) has 6 employees and in 2018 this was their budget for salaries $ 532,600. How much is Russell Copeman’s salary?
Check out the CTV piece and the declarations of Russell Copeman and Benoit Roberge. What makes more sense?
