Cartoonists this week
Quebec politics was front and centre this week: Côté mixes the political colours and Godin implies that anglophones are pulling Charles Milliard’s strings. Meantime, PSPP is hampered by a certain weight and Christine Fréchette juggles her cabinet while Super Minister Drainville gets on with the job.
Canada’s new ambassador to the U.S. joins a class with Michael Rousseau and Mary Simon.
Playoff season is always a good hook so Ygreck gives us Fréchette’s starting lineup. Côté’s fan can’t see a problem (and this is from a Quebec City cartoonist!).
Of course, Trump never goes away. Godin shows him chomping down on a Mexican-Canadian sandwich, Côté finds him lost in a game of snakes and ladders and Ygreck sees him parting the Red Sea.
Sometimes a cartoonist will illustrate news I don’t see anywhere else. Godin notes Quebec’s abandonment of a system in place since 1970 for testing water safety at several beaches. (Story here on Radio‑Canada.)
And once again, Côté with good social observation, and a possible upside to the end of home postal delivery (although I’ve never seen one of those cartoon mailboxes in real life).
