    Blinked at this La Presse headline about a Quebec mayor calling him L’ancien roi du pick‑up. The first thing that came to mind wasn’t a vehicle. Had he been a notorious PUA? No, the environmentally minded mayor of Prévost used to drive a truck.

      Affordable apartments in the east end are being left empty and in some cases boarded up, even while people are still living in other parts of the buildings. Nobody likes these signs of dilapidation. These are privately owned properties, not social housing.

        woman reading newspaperThe visit of the King to the United States turned up this week, Côté giving Charles comedy British teeth and Ygreck submitting him to a brutal Trump handshake.

        The federal Liberals’ economic plans inspired Côté, Ygreck and Godin to cynical sallies.

        Godin on May Day, Côté on the Canadiens.

        Trump never leaves the scene. Côté sees him with the Pope in one scene, and Chapleau in another. Godin has an American passport holder making a request.

        And Godin with a relevant piece on Gaza.
