Quelle frayeur à Repentigny. D’autant plus troublante alors que nous nous souvenons des 47 vies perdues à Lac-Mégantic il y a 13 ans. Nous avons eu de la chance cette fois, mais nous le devons aux victimes et à la communauté de Lac-Mégantic d’en faire davantage pour renforcer

Depuis quand nos lois sur la vie privée servent à protéger des étrangers liés à des entités terroristes ? Ces lois sont là pour protéger les Canadiens, pas pour aider le gouvernement à leur cacher la vérité. Une dérobade totale de @CitImmCanFR face à mes questions sur l’accès de
