Mathieu Bock-Côté defended the arrival of Jacinthe-Ève Arel in the Parti québécois, arguing that her right-wing positions should not exclude her from the civic space. He recalled that she had sometimes seen qualities in Donald Trump, severely criticized health measures during the pandemic, and argued that there were only two sexes. Bock-Côté specified that he was not commenting on the merits of these opinions, but that they could be contested without justifying, in his view, Arel's exclusion. He accused members of Québec solidaire of demanding Arel's dismissal and wanting to ban her from political life. He also criticized some Péquistes who had relayed this indignation and claimed that Arel did not have a place in the PQ. According to him, the party was a coalition that could welcome social democrats, progressives, conservatives, and libertarians. Bock-Côté argued that the independence of Quebec was the common ground for Péquistes, despite their disagreements on the model of society. He believed that the sovereignist movement should also welcome people close to Éric Duhaime's ideas, and presented Arel's membership in the independence camp as a contribution to this cause. #Québec #Indépendance #Politique (translated)

Eric Duhaime commented on the appointment of Jacinthe-Ève Arel as chief of staff of the Parti québécois. He said he had known her as a conservative candidate in the 2022 elections and described her as brilliant and eloquent. He wished her success in her mandate related to government efficiency and regulatory easing, believing that Quebec needed to reduce the size of the state and advance conservative ideas. However, he felt that she was repeating the mistake made in 2018, when she ran for a coalition. According to him, the right was then used to display a diversity of opinions, while decisions remained on the left. He warned against the role of a facade right within the PQ, while expressing a desire to give the new government a chance and observe its measures to reduce the size and intervention of the state. Regarding Ruba Ghazal, who called for the departure of Jacinthe-Ève Arel, Duhaime argued that her act of waving a keffiyeh during her swearing-in at the National Assembly deprived her, in his view, of all legitimacy to criticize controversial remarks or actions. #Québec #Politique #Conservateur (translated)

Guillaume Herblot stated that Bagui Traoré had been the subject of 20 convictions, including five for extortion. He indicated that the most recent conviction was pronounced on October 28, 2026, in Pontoise: two years in prison for an attempted extortion targeting a resident of Beaumont-sur-Oise who had just won €120,000 in bets. According to Herblot, Bagui Traoré was banned from staying in Val-d’Oise and was already incarcerated before this conviction, particularly for acts of extortion aimed at women under guardianship, threats against a witness of his trial, and violence against law enforcement. Herblot also criticized the support provided since 2016 by La France insoumise and part of the left to Assa Traoré, especially during meetings and through T-shirts demanding justice for Adama. He recalled that the dismissal in the case of Adama's death had, according to him, been confirmed on appeal and then in cassation. He stated that the convictions targeting family members made it difficult to present them as a national icon of innocence and wrote that this narrative had its limits. #JusticePourAdama #Traoré #Extorsion (translated)
