Le docteur Ngola est arrivé à l’été 2020 au sein de l’équipe du GMF Saint- Laurent de Louiseville, responsable de la clinique médicale de Maskinongé, après avoir pratiqué la médecine familiale dans la région de Campbellton.

Et si le sport bousillait Donald Trump?

**Donald Trump adore dire que les États-Unis n’ont besoin de personne. Mais le sport, surtout olympique, prouve le contraire. Et ça pourrait lui faire mal.** La planète ne sait pas comment réagir devant le président américain: le confronter? Le conforter? L’ignorer? Le frapper? Le tolérer? Le ménager? Pour l’instant, Trump n’est pas vraiment dérangé. Mais c’est différent avec le sport. Car le sport peut faire briller une nation lorsqu’elle est sur les plus grandes scènes. Mais ça peut aussi avoir l’effet inverse. Ça peut permettre à la planète de les…

There is a slow, steady death count going on outside of Iran and the veil its internet blackout has drawn over the extent of the regime’s violent crackdown on anti-government protesters earlier this month. Even with what’s only known so far, analysts say it is the most brutal crackdown since the founding of the Islamic Republic nearly 50 years ago. The number of protesters verified dead is at more than 4,000 and climbing, according to NGOs — including the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency, which has provided credible figures…
