Apaisement
J’évite toujours les analogies galvaudées et simplistes avec la conférence de Munich 1938 et « l’apaisement » supposément fatal de la Grande-Bretagne à l’endroit d’Adolf Hitler. Pas seulement parce que les scénarios contemporains sont si différents (Vladimir Poutine ne peut être comparé au fondateur du nazisme et l’Ukraine n’est pas la Tchécoslovaquie). Il y a également le fait que la stratégie de Neville Chamberlain dans ses pourparlers avec le dictateur allemand divise encore les historiens. Selon la pensée révisionniste, le premier ministre britannique aurait gagné un temps essentiel au réarmement… Apparaît sur: ledevoir.com,

Appui à Alexis Brunelle-Duceppe
Il est pour la laïcité de l’État, mais contre l’interdiction du port de signes religieux. Pour la reconnaissance de la nation québécoise, mais pas pour son indépendance. Malgré ses positions divergentes avec celles du Bloc québécois, l’ex-ministre de la Justice et le libéral Irwin Cotler a donné son appui au député et candidat Alexis Brunelle-Duceppe. Il nous explique pourquoi. « Oui, j’étais libéral. Oui, je suis un fédéraliste, mais en même temps je suis un Québécois nationaliste aussi », explique-t-il en entrevue. « Ce qui est très important, c’est d’avoir… Apparaît sur: lapresse.ca, lapresse.ca,

Brésil : « Il n’y a pas eu de coup d’État », scandent des manifestants pro-Bolsonaro
L’ancien président brésilien Jair Bolsonaro a rassemblé de nouveau ses partisans dimanche à São Paulo, pour une première manifestation depuis la décision de le juger pour sa tentative présumée de coup d’État. Le 26 mars, la Cour suprême a décidé à l’unanimité d’ouvrir un procès contre Jair Bolsonaro pour tentative de coup d’État, ce qui l’expose à une lourde peine de prison et plombe ses ambitions de retour au pouvoir. Selon les procureurs, l’ex-président (2019-2022) a cherché à obtenir le soutien des forces armées pour empêcher le retour au pouvoir… Apparaît sur: radio-canada.ca,

CPE affiliés à la CSN
Des parents innovent pour s’occuper de leurs enfants alors que plus de 400 centres de la petite enfance (CPE) sont en grève : garde partagée entre voisins, enfants au bureau ou même renfort des grands-parents… parfois arrivés en avion pour prêter main-forte. Et ce n’est pas fini, les travailleuses des CPE seront à nouveau en grève du 14 au 16 avril, a appris _La Presse_. Il y a encore trop d’enjeux sur la table pour avoir une entente de principe, estime la CSN. Trois nouvelles journées de grève sont donc… Apparaît sur: lapresse.ca,

Ce que les incels pensent de la série «Adolescence»
La minisérie _Adolescence_ , de Netflix, est un immense succès international et un sujet de discussion dans les médias. Racontant l’histoire d’un Anglais de 13 ans qui a assassiné une camarade de classe à coups de couteau, elle évoque l’influence de la « manosphère », cette communauté virtuelle d’hommes qui se pensent victimes des femmes et surtout des féministes. La série explore l’hypothèse que le meurtrier serait un « _involuntary celibate_ », un « incel », ou « chaste involontaire » (le mot anglais « _celibate_ » a deux définitions… Apparaît sur: ledevoir.com,

Cessez de cibler les profs, visez plutôt sur la réussite des élèves !
## Au nom des 500 enseignantes et enseignants que le syndicat des enseignants de la Haute Côte-Nord représente, je me permets de prendre la parole aujourd’hui pour interpeller publiquement Monsieur Yves Montigny et lui signifier notre profonde indignation à l’égard des plus récentes décisions prises par le gouvernement en matière d’éducation.

Chronique de Réjean Porlier ǀ Serait-il temps de réfléchir à notre avenir ?
**À ne plus en douter, au sud de notre frontière se déploie pièce par pièce un régime autoritaire où la censure est sur le point de devenir la norme, alors que les écoles se voient muselées, que la science et l’opposition sont mises au banc des accusés, que les inégalités meublent le quotidien et que la doctrine religieuse reprend du service. Le grand paradoxe de cet écroulement démocratique, c’est qu’il aura été soutenu par une masse de gens qui se seront réclamés de plus de liberté, comme si régime autoritaire… Apparaît sur: lenord-cotier.com,

Dans les entrailles de l’USAID
Aux Etats-Unis, il arrive toujours un moment où l’envie de remettre le cirque en route a sonné. En apparence sans cadre théorique ni doctrinal, prenant forme en avançant, les mécanismes mis en œuvre par Donald Trump défient effectivement l’orthodoxie. Guerre commerciale avec la Chine, le Mexique et le Canada, humiliation publique de Volodimir Zelensky, razzia sur les matières premières de l’Ukraine, mépris affiché pour l’Union européenne, menaces sur le Groenland ou le Panamá, sanctions aggravées pour la République bolivarienne du Venezuela… Rien d’autre ?

Le maccarthysme refait surface à l’ère du trumpisme
Attisée par le sénateur républicain Joseph McCarthy, la « Peur rouge » des années 1950, cette angoisse de la submersion des valeurs sociales étasuniennes par le communisme, n’a pas seulement été à l’origine d’une tristement célèbre chasse aux sorcières dans les rangs artistiques et politiques. Elle a aussi conduit à une vaste campagne de censure de livres dans les bibliothèques contrôlées par le gouvernement fédéral, avec la suppression de titres qui, en rétrospective, peuvent faire sourire.

Le wokisme : un mot détourné, une arme politique et un écran de fumée
Il fut un temps où _woke_ signifiait simplement être éveillé aux injustices sociales, notamment raciales. Aujourd’hui, ce terme a été vidé de son sens initial et détourné pour devenir une insulte politique, une arme rhétorique généralement utilisée par l’extrême droite et un outil de polarisation massive. De Donald Trump à Pierre Poilievre en passant par Elon Musk, nombreux sont ceux qui ont compris que se déclarer antiwoke est bien plus efficace électoralement que d’être ouvertement antiprogressiste. ### Un glissement sémantique orchestré À l’origine, être _woke_ , c’était être conscient des… Apparaît sur: entreelibre.info,
