Philippe Bond steps away from public life

This story has been percolating through local news all week: comic Philippe Bond was accused of sexual predation by podcaster Thomas Levac. He denied the accusations, but was immediately accused of sexual assault by eight women. Now Bond has announced he’s stepping away from public life. And there’s commentary.

As a bad anglo I admit I’d never heard of either guy till this week, but it’s a big story so there you go.
