Cartoonists this week

woman reading newspaperYgreck enjoys emphasizing Canada’s pathetic military scale next to U.S. forces, as he did this week and a couple of weeks ago.

Other aspects of the U.S.-Israel-Iran war struck Chapleau and Chloé, and Mark Carney’s political situation inspired a joke from Côté, who also had a comment on war’s effect on the global economy.

Closer to home, it was the Quebec budget that inspired two japes from Côté, one from Godin, and two jabs at Legault from Chapleau and Ygreck.

The possibility of reviving shale gas drilling was also noted.

The annual angst over the post‑winter filth of the city was noted by Godin, and Chapleau gave Fréchette and Drainville a little makeover.

And of course the weather is always a timely subject.
