Des élus de la région dénoncent les propos haineux

Devant les cas d’homophobie et de transphobie qui se répandent au Québec, des élus membres de la communauté LGBTQ+ ont décidé de créer un groupe de soutien et de dénoncer les propos haineux dont ils sont souvent la cible. Le maire de Saint-Félicien en fait partie, de même que le conseiller municipal d’Alma Olivier Larouche. « On ferait la même chose si c’était envers les femmes, les handicapés, etc. Il ne faut pas qu’on tolère ce type de propos », a indiqué M. Larouche en entrevue à l’émission _C’est jamais pareil_. Des…

Détresse et pensées suicidaires: entre profs aussi, l’intimidation existe

Oui, il y a de l’intimidation entre professeurs dans les universités. Un groupe de recherche, réunissant quatre universités (Laval, Montréal, Sherbrooke et l’Outaouais), a envoyé un sondage à tous les professeurs et chargés de cours des universités du Québec pour recenser les dynamiques d’intimidation dans les milieux d’enseignement supérieur. Au total, 1053 personnes ont répondu. Selon le sondage, c’est un peu moins de 50 % des professeurs qui ont été la cible ou le témoin de gestes d’intimidation dans leurs établissements d’enseignement. Que disent précisément les chiffres? 12,3 % des…

La CSQ conteste la Loi 4 devant les tribunaux

**La Centrale des syndicats du Québec (CSQ) a déposé un recours devant la Cour supérieure du Québec afin de contester certaines dispositions de la Loi 4, qu’elle juge contraires aux droits constitutionnels.** Adoptée sous le nom _Loi visant à améliorer la transparence, la gouvernance et le processus démocratique de diverses associations en milieu de travail_ , cette législation est vivement critiquée par l’organisation syndicale, qui estime qu’elle porte gravement atteinte à la liberté d’action des syndicats.

La police sur la piste d’un «crime de haine» après une attaque contre une mosquée en Californie

La police américaine est sur la piste d’un « crime de haine » après l’attaque lundi contre une mosquée de San Diego, en Californie, qui a fait trois morts avant que les deux tireurs présumés, des adolescents, ne se suicident. Les deux jeunes hommes ont fait irruption en fin de matinée dans le Centre islamique de San Diego, qui abrite la plus grande mosquée de cette métropole de 1,4 million d’habitants, ainsi qu’une école.

Manifestation au Royaume-Uni: halte à la désinformation mondialiste

**Ils étaient plusieurs dizaines de milliers, d’autres disent quelques centaines de milliers, samedi, à manifester à Londres, au Royaume-Uni, contre l’immigration massive.** Mais si on se fie au discours dominant, il s’agissait d’une bande de galeux d’extrême droite, de manifestants répugnants. Et on répète : extrême droite, extrême droite, extrême droite. On répète ces mots, sans jamais les définir, jusqu’à ce qu’ils soient les seuls qui soient utilisés. ##### Londres Il s’agit évidemment de créer un effet repoussoir, comme on le fait aussi avec les partis « populistes » auxquels…

Quand les hommes apprennent à haïr

Les réseaux sociaux n’ont pas seulement transformé notre rapport à l’information. Ils ont transformé ce que certains hommes pensent être. Ce qui relevait autrefois d’une confusion normale, d’une masculinité en quête de repères, est devenu un marché. Des algorithmes qui captent la frustration, la nourrissent, la transforment en idéologie. Ce n’est pas un phénomène marginal. C’est une infrastructure. Ce vide n’est pas un accident. Il est fabriqué. Les plateformes fonctionnent sur un principe simple : plus une idée suscite une réaction vive, plus elle circule. La nuance est inutile. Elle…

AI unease grows in the U.S. as early enthusiasm gives way to ‘existential fear’

About 70 per cent of Americans think AI is moving too fast as concerns about its effect on unemployment, rising costs, misinformation and security grow Speakers promoting AI are getting booed at universities, voters are rebelling against data centers, and even AI-friendly Trump administration officials are starting to retreat as an backlash gathers pace across the United States. The rapid spread of the emerging technology is seeing early enthusiasm give way to concerns about unemployment, rising…

Charlie Kirk shooting: Lawyers ask to seal evidence

PROVO, Utah — Lawyers for the man accused of killing Charlie Kirk urged a Utah judge on Tuesday to seal some evidence and bar reporters and the public from parts of a key upcoming hearing after the judge declined to ban news cameras from the courtroom. Tyler Robinson’s defence has argued that broadcasts of the proceedings create media frenzies that often misrepresent him and could bias potential jurors. They hope to restrict access to parts of his preliminary hearing, scheduled for July 6-10, during which prosecutors must show they have…

Flu briefings given to Ontario health minister hidden in transparency clampdown

Briefings on flu, RSV and COVID-19 rates prepared for Ontario’s minister of health during the fall cannot be released publicly, the government has decided, under restrictive new transparency rules. Sweeping changes to Ontario’s freedom of information laws were brought in as part of the Ford government’s budget this year, excluding all records from ministers, the premier and their staff from public scrutiny. Since the law officially came into force on April 24, civil servants have issued a deluge of rejections for outstanding requests which fall foul of the retroactive rules….

‘Zionism won’: Jews earned Israel, Ben Shapiro tells Toronto audience

American pundit told symposium antizionism is ideology ‘built on lies’ Ben Shapiro says most people, Jews included, often mistakenly define Zionism. The superstar American pundit said during a Toronto symposium on Sunday that Zionism is not about Jews having the right to self-determination in their ancestral homeland. Instead, he said, it’s self-determination that is backed up with action. A people have to earn their state, he said — and he made it clear he believes Jews created a very successful…

OpenAI avoided a costly court loss to Elon Musk, but neither side is unscathed

OAKLAND, Calif. — After prevailing in its court fight with Elon Musk, OpenAI — the ChatGPT maker valued at US$852 billion — remains on track for what could be one of the largest initial public offerings in history. Musk had been seeking the ouster of his fellow OpenAI co-founder, CEO Sam Altman, among other changes to the company. But with testimony from witnesses who called Altman dishonest, he’s hardly emerged unscathed. At a time of growing concern about artificial intelligence’s impacts, the landmark trial also shed new light on the…

San Diego mosque shooters met online and expressed hate before attack: FBI

Two teenagers who shot and killed three people in an attack on a California mosque were radicalized online where they first met and shared white supremacist views, according to authorities and writings they authored. The pair “didn’t discriminate on who they hated,” Mark Remily, the lead FBI agent in San Diego, said Tuesday. The writings, obtained by The Associated Press, include hateful rhetoric toward Jewish people, Muslims and Islam, as well as the LGBTQ+ community, Black people, women, and both the political left and right. Both express beliefs that white…

Why Is Smith Still Giving Separatists a Ride?

Let’s look in on what may be the most important story in Canada. As expected, the Stay Free Alberta movement gathered the necessary signatures to trigger a separation question on Alberta’s Oct. 19 referendum on immigration and the Constitution. But the separation referendum was struck down by Alberta Justice Shaina Leonard of the Court of King’s Bench because the province failed to consult with First Nations about how separation would affect their treaty rights. Rather than shrug and acknowledge the separatists’ jig is up, Premier Danielle Smith immediately condemned the…
