Paul St-Pierre Plamonton, leader of the Parti Québécois, became a separatist while a flight attendant for Air Canada, a carrier that continues to stand out for its treatment of French people on its flights.
He said this during the visit Sweet saltOn Friday, when Mélanie Maynard received a politician for the first time, a request came from a group of people we call PSPP.
“Part of my independence stems from my lack of French and a certain disdain for the Quebec distinction on Air Canada Airlines. I was 22-23 years old and I was really bad in business class because I was a jerk; I spilled coffee on people’s laps. So they quickly moved me to hospitality class. They changed it, where I made a joke and it worked,” he said, after refusing to swear at the queen. Sweet saltA reference to the struggle he led and won to stop the swearing-in of the British monarch in the National Assembly.
PSPP answers the host’s questions on Camille-Laurin’s ride in Montreal, on the banks of the St. Lawrence River, more precisely at Promenade-Bellerive Park.
He said he was interested in discussing things other than his latest political stance, so he wanted to stop by and chat. Sweet salt. “It’s a change Heated seat A bombardment of questions,” he underlined before admitting that he is a fan of Hawaiian pizza, so with ham and pineapple, it divides Quebecers as much as the constitutional question.
“It’s very strange that you know that, because at 11 this morning I ate a Hawaiian pizza, which will surprise the entire Parti Québécois,” he noted.
He actually changed the type of questions for the occasion as Melanie Maynard got him talking about his love of karaoke; His favorite collection of the 1980s and 1990s, he made himself a Bernard Trineville.
Coming from a federalist family that has now re-converted after Quebec’s independence — at least his father — he likes to sing Didier Barbelivian, Julien Clerc or Jean-Jacques Goldman, and he notes that we’re short of them these days. He regrets the French song and wants to fix it by strengthening our cultural links with France.
“It raises the question of our detachment from France in recent years,” he says, adding that at another time “French music was part of our lives.” Innovation should go both ways, he says, so it’s also for the benefit of Quebec artists.
“Cultural ties have to be strong to strengthen Francophonie because you have monsters [les GAFAM] And a super talented Quebec cultural industry, capable of many things, but you have to give funding and support to compete with these monsters,” he ruled.
When the PSPP became too political, Melanie Maynard didn’t hesitate to take him on The buzzer To get him back in order made for some funny moments and laugh-out-loud fits.
