(Voici le texte intégral de ma réplique à Maclean’s. Elle est sur le site de Maclean’s et une version plus courte mais non moins cinglante apparaît dans le magazine anglophone en kiosque depuis ce jeudi.)
I was more amused than shocked by Maclean’s cover naming Quebec “the most corrupt province in Canada.” It certainly feels that way these days, and Martin Patriquin’s only challenge was to cram in a single story all the strands of allegations and shady shenanigans surrounding Quebec’s current Jean Charest government. All the facts in the story are public knowledge, and for the most part brought to light by an aggressive Quebec media and no less insistent opposition parties.
