FRANK

FRANK wrote that he wished for the success of PSPP, whom he regarded as his prime minister, whether he was a péquiste or not. He hoped that he would avoid the mistakes of the last Parti québécois government, which, according to him, had tasked Lise Payette's daughter with studying the "Quebec mystery" after being frustrated with its results in Quebec. He believed that this approach had represented the inhabitants of the capital as abnormal people and outcasts. Calling himself a conservative, FRANK indicated that he liked several measures of the péquiste program: abolishing the QST on used goods and Health Quebec, reducing bureaucracy, eliminating the Economic Development Fund, and limiting the growth of expenditures. He said he would applaud if these measures were adopted. On the other hand, he warned that he would withdraw if the government took an eco-leftist turn or stuck to péquiste symbolism, such as the oath to the king, adding that many people on the right would do the same. #Québec #politique #PQ (translated)

FRANK wrote that he commented on the election night with his friend JC Ouellet and Donald Charette, whom he described as a wise veteran. He said it was too early to draw a definitive conclusion but believed that Éric Duhaime had run an excellent campaign and would return to the National Assembly with several deputies. According to FRANK, Charles Milliard had performed better than expected, and the Liberals had created surprises on the South Shore of Montreal and in Jean-Talon, Quebec. He also praised Ruba Ghazal for limiting his party's losses in a campaign where, according to him, left-wing ideas were not very popular. FRANK stated that Christine Fréchette had made history with the worst result ever obtained by an outgoing government in Quebec. He described PSPP's victory as deserved but bittersweet: the party had gone from 3 to nearly 60 elected officials without obtaining a majority and had lost its long-standing lead in the national capital, where it had not elected any deputies. He attributed this result in part to the PQ's position on the third link. Finally, FRANK wrote that the CAQ might be on life support and that the referendum was too. #ÉlectionsQuébec #PolitiqueQuébécoise #AnalysePolitique (translated)

FRANK wrote that many commentators had completely discredited themselves during this election, particularly by putting forward, in his opinion, absurd interpretations. He added that these people, whom he considered intellectually limited, no longer seemed to have any influence on the electorate. https://t.co/FmtsBju8eM #Élections #Politique #Médias (translated)

The interview with PSPP reached 10.5k views in just 3 hours, only on YouTube. Honestly, I don't understand why the other parties (CAQ, PLQ, QS) have "ghosted" us, although they went to much less visible platforms. Good for them. https://t.co/bVOCAsOBjY #politique #PSPP #YouTube (translated)

Ce qui m’a fascinée chez les chefs que j’ai croisés, c’est leur sécurité : agents de la SQ partout, gardes du corps… J’imagine que les partis ayant flirté avec le « defund the police » refusent cette protection ou demandent aux policiers de troquer leur guns pour des fleurs ? #Sécurité #Politique #Protection

Si j’ai bien compris, l’administration Trump serait passée, en un mois, d’une volonté d’attaquer le français et le Québec menant au retrait de la négociation de l’ACEUM à un allié de l’indépendance pour briser le Canada… Non mais vous avez finis de nous prendre pour des cons ? #Québec #ACEUM #Politique

Je ne suis tout simplement plus capable d’entendre l’argument : « si tu coupes, tu vas toucher aux services ». Cette affirmation repose sur une prémisse totalement fausse, celle que l’argent injecté dans l’État est utilisé de manière optimale. Prenons un exemple tout simple. Pour offrir essentiellement les mêmes services à la population (santé, éducation, etc.), l’Ontario dépense 14 500 $ par habitant, alors qu’au Québec, on en est à 20 500 $. C’est le pire résultat au Canada. Si ça coûte plus cher ici, c’est que l’argent se perd dans un trou noir de bureaucratie. Ne venez pas me dire qu’on ne peut pas faire mieux, c’est impossible. Pourquoi devrait-on être les pires du pays ? N’importe qui ayant déjà travaillé pour l’État le sait au fond de lui : il y a un gaspillage énorme de ressources, et ce, à tous les niveaux. #Économie #Bureaucratie #ServicesPublics

On peut être d’accord ou non avec certaines mesures proposées ici, mais je regarde passer les commentaires et, pour certaines personnes, on dirait que la pire chose sur terre est d’imaginer qu’un Québécois se reproduise. Voilà où nous en sommes culturellement. #Québec #Culture #Société

J’ai écouté 10 mins du débat économique et j’ai du arrêter. Je ne comprends pas comment un ministre qui n’a équilibré qu’un seul budget en 8 ans (merci aux surplus du PLQ) peut-être aussi arrogant. Il est grand temps de mettre la CAQ à la porte, qu’il redescende sur terre. #Politique #Économie #CAQ
