André Boisclair accused of armed sex assault
André Boisclair, the Outremont boy who led the PQ to a stunning defeat in the 2007 election, has been accused of an armed sex assault back in 2014. Compare the CTV photo to this one in La Presse: fair enough, everyone ages, but this really looks like the wrong side of the picture of Dorian Gray.
Friday morning, Boisclair turned himself in.

Knew he’d lose that election when at a bar I used to frequent (now gentrified into oblivion, he was called simply “la tapette.”

If only the PQ had some sort of warning, way of knowing that they weren’t actually a progressive party, like the attitudes of their party faithful around race and ethnic identity or something.
It’s always been one of their greatest failings that they try to position themselves as socially progressive, without actually being tolerant of diversity.

I just remember him for admitting he was doing lines off his desk while in office as PQ leader

Damn, he looks rough! I give you a laughing emoji for the Dorian Gray reference. I can imagine Boisclair wilding in back alleys of the London docks. That guy has seen some shit for sure.

While I am no fan of Boisclair I will say this; he and I are the same age and there’s a helluva drop between 40 (about when we saw him last) and 54. It ain’t pretty.
