LES VRAIS LOBBYISTES C’est fou comment un discours sur l’austérité et la rigueur dans les finances publiques peut tout Chronique à coup changer. Il y a deux semaines, le gouvernement n’avait pas les moyens d’absorber les frais accessoires que le ministre Barrette chiffrait à 50 millions $. Maintenant, il va emprunter 1,3 milliard $ pour financer le trou financier de la CSeries de Bombardier. Le ministre Daoust semblait rayonnant d’annoncer qu’il investirait autant de nos deniers publics. Évidemment, dans son ancien rôle de banquier à la Banque Laurentienne ou à la Banque Nationale, il n’aurait jamais posé un tel geste. Mais là, c’est différent : ce sont nos impôts qui servent de plat de bonbons. Et le ministre ne va pas se gêner pour ses amis de chez Bombardier. Moi, je trouve toujours intéressant de savoir qui est mêlé à ces vraies affaires. Prenez, par exemple, Daniel Johnson, qui présidera la société en commandite dans laquelle le gouvernement du Québec investira 1,3 milliard $. Je me souviens de lui comme premier ministre du Québec, fonction qu’il a occupée pendant moins d’un an. Mais auparavant, il avait été président du Conseil du Trésor pendant plusieurs années. Je me souviens quand il disait que nous devions vivre selon nos moyens, et conséquemment, il réduisait les budgets de dépenses dans les programmes sociaux (eh oui, ce n’est pas d’hier!).

  • Interviewing Practices and Political Substance on Televised Talk Shows
    The Canadian Political Science Review 3(2) June 2009 Beyond Sex and Saxophones: Interviewing Practices and Political Substance on Televised Talk Shows Frédérick Bastien (Université Laval)∗ Abstract The Goal of this paper is to assess the contribution of infotainment and entertainment television talK shows by comparinG political interviews on these TV shows with current affairs proGrams. Few political scientists have examined political interviews, in General, and political interviews on entertainment outlets, in particular. Moreover, these studies are often focused on the sorts of topic participants talK about in such proGrams. On the basis of literature developed by scholars in sociolinGuistics and journalism, we expand the scope of our study to the assessment of questions asKed by the interviewers and answers provided by the politicians. We perform a quantitative content analysis of political interviews to compare the behavior of these speaKers on infotainment and entertainment proGrams with those on current affairs proGrams. Our results show that hosts on infotainment proGrams are no less riGorous than their counterparts on information proGrams, especially when the interview is centered on policy issues. We conclude that scholars interested in these questions should turn to studies in sociolinGuistics and journalism to build a relevant analytical frame. Introduction1 Television programs that blend information with entertainment have become a prominent feature of the media environment since the 1990’s. This has affected the way politics is talked about on television. Traditional newscasts and current affairs programs are no longer the only place where political issues are discussed and politicians can be heard. As Baum (2005) points out, politicians “hit the talk show circuit” as broadcasters schedule more infotainment programs.

The engagement of a host of partners reaffirms our belief that we are on the path to success. Montréal is a city of many talents. The key is to create conditions favourable to the full blossoming of these talents and, thereby, the City itself. Our 10-year plan is certainly ambitious, with some 68 distinct acts gathered under five powerful orientations: - Improve access to culture. - Invest in arts and culture. - Enrich our quality of life. - Promote Montréal throughout Canada and abroad. - Provide Montréal with the means to remain a cultural metropolis. Since 2007, the Montréal, Cultural Metropolis Steering Committee has created a genuine awareness of the issues surrounding the development of Montréal as a cultural metropolis. This has led to concerted action and, in turn, to many significant achievements for players in the cultural milieu and their partners, as well as for the population. As we approach the plan’s mid-term point, the Montréal, Cultural Metropolis Steering Committee is pleased to present this all-new At A Glance, the much-anticipated review of the events which marked our cultural life in 2011. Once again this year, it is the brilliance of our artists which takes the spotlight, through their dynamism, radiance and pluralism.
