CBC/Radio-Canada's executive vice-president of French services is apologizing for travelling to Florida last month despite the federal government strongly warning against non-essential travel during the pandemic.

Michel Bissonnette, who oversees French-language television, radio and digital content for the public broadcaster, owns property in Miami and stayed there Dec. 2 to Dec. 27. He both worked and vacationed while south of the border, said Radio-Canada spokesperson Marc Pichette in an email.

The story was first reported on by the National Post Thursday morning.

IL PLEUVAIT DES OISEAUX en tête des nominations du Gala Québec Cinéma 2020

En direct du salon de Guillaume Lambert, les nominations du Gala Québec Cinéma (qui ne fera pas l’objet d’un rassemblement télévisuel cette année, confinement oblige) ont été dévoil��es cet après-midi.

En cette année dominée par les réalisatrices, 6 des meilleurs films sont réalisés par des femmes et 3 femmes sont en lice pour l’Iris de la Meilleure réalisation.

On parle bien sûr d’Antigone de Sophie Deraspe (Meilleur film, Meilleure réalisation, Meilleur scénario), La femme de mon frère de Monia Chokri  (Meilleur film, Meilleure réalisation), Kuessipan de Myriam Verreault (Meilleur film, Meilleure réalisation, Meilleur scénario), Jeune Juliette d’Anne Émond (Meilleur film, Meilleur scénario), Il pleuvait des oiseaux  et Louise Archambault (Meilleur film, Meilleur scénario, et 13 nominations au total, le record cette année), et du plus inattendu Fabuleuses de Mélanie Charbonneau (Meilleur film).

Ces films réalisés par des femmes sont rejoints dans les catégories de pointe par les « films de gars » Mafia Inc de Podz (Meilleur film), Sympathie pour le diable de Guillaume de Fontenay (Meilleure réalisation, Meilleur scénario), et  Le vingtième siècle de Matthew Rankin  (Meilleur premier film, Meilleure réalisation).

Un grand oublié : Xavier Dolan, qui a lancé deux longs métrages l’an dernier. On ne s’attendait pas à un couronnement du mal-aimé The Death and Life of John F. Donovan, mais l’excellent Matthias & Maxime aurait mérité plus d’honneurs. Il est quand même en nomination dans les catégories Meilleure interprétation féminine dans un rôle de soutien (Micheline Bernard), Meilleure interprétation masculine dans un rôle de soutien (Pier-Luc Funk), Meilleure direction de la photographie (André Turpin), Meilleur montage (Xavier Dolan), Meilleure musique originale (Jean-Michel Blais) et Meilleur maquillage (Erik Gosselin, Edwina Voda).

Du côté des interprètes, je suis soulagé que mon long métrage québécois préféré depuis longtemps, Le rire de Martin Laroche, ait été au moins reconnu pour les brillantes performances de Léane Labrèche-Dor (Premier rôle féminin) et Micheline Lanctôt (Rôle de soutien féminin).

Il faut aussi souligner les deux nominations comme acteur de Robin Aubert, pour Jeune Juliette (Premier rôle masculin) et Merci pour tout (Rôle de soutien masculin).

Et une pensée pour Andrée Lachapelle, qui nous a quittés récemment, nommée comme Meilleure actrice pour Il pleuvait des oiseaux.

Parlant d’Il pleuvait des oiseaux , félicitations à Will Driving West, un de mes groupes préférés, parmi les finalistes de la catégorie Meilleure musique originale. 

Aussi, je suis très heureux pour l’extraordinaire Je finirai en prison d’Alexandre Dostie, en nomination pour l’Iris du meilleur court métrage.

Senior Vice-President of Radio-Canada | Michel Bissonnette still has things to change

Senior Vice-President of Radio-Canada | Michel Bissonnette still has things to change

In the new “house” of Radio-Canada, the workspaces are open plan. I had been told that everyone, without exception, lived in these common areas found on each floor. I admit that I had a little doubt. I told myself that the big bosses should benefit from a closed office. Posted at 8:15 a.m. What was my surprise to see Michel Bissonnette, senior vice-president of Radio-Canada, seated behind a…

Paru en août dernier, «Gorgée! La vie trop courte de Roberto «Bob» Bissonnette», de Marc Brassard, journaliste sportif au quotidien Le Droit. Bob Bissonnette, c’est un phénomène à Québec: décédé en 2016, à l'âge de 35 ans, dans un terrible accident d'hélicoptère, le hockeyeur devenu vedette du rock a eu une vie trop courte, mais oh combien intense. Pourquoi «Gorgée»? C’est ce que Bob Bissonnette criait entre ses chansons lors de ses spectacles, à la manière de «Santé!», ce qui a contribué à la légende de ses performances arrosées… Dans cette biographie écrite à la manière d’un article de journal (!) on apprend à connaître l’auteur-compositeur-interprète à travers ses chansons, quelques photos rassemblées à la manière d’un album de famille et les anecdotes racontées par ses coéquipiers et amis: Maxime Talbot (maintenant analyste au réseau des sports, il a remporté la Coupe Stanley en 2009 avec les Penguins de Pittsburgh), Claude Julien (son ancien coach dans le Junior majeur dans les années 1990), Michel Laplante (président des Capitales de Québec) et plusieurs autres. On témoigne de son énergie débordante, de son charisme, de sa générosité et surtout de son influence positive sur son entourage. Il avait cette propension à inspirer les gens, à les aider à se surpasser, à persévérer… Un nouvel album intitulé « Temple de la Renommée » est sorti le 15 octobre dernier : une œuvre rock symphonique de 10 chansons, combinant des classiques de Bissonnette et des morceaux inédits.

Books Read in 2017

I really don’t know what else to say at this point. Other than I toned it down a bit from last year. ;)

OH actually: I noticed I was being a failure at listing the illustrators of graphic novels. So I’ll try to do that from now on. I apologize to all those artists I’ve neglected to include in my bylines, but thankfully I believe you are all listed on the linked pages. Which is better than no credit at all....

Thousands Of Canadians Gather At Vigils For Mosque Attack Victims

Canadians held vigils across the country Monday in a show of solidarity with the nations Muslim communities and to mourn the victims of a shooting at the Quebec City Islamic Cultural Center.

The attack during evening prayers Sunday nightkilled six people and left eight wounded. It is one of the worst mass shootings in Canadas history.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and local government officials attended a vigil a block from the Quebec City mosque. Thousands gathered in Montreal at vigils near the citys Parc and St. Michel metro stations.

We stand with you, we love you and we support you. And we will always defend and protect your right to gather together and pray, today and every day, Trudeau saidin Quebec City. Muslim Canadians are valued members of every community, and wherever they live they deserve to feel welcome and safe. They are home here.

Events were also planned at Parliament Hill in the nations capital, Ottawa, and in the cities of Vancouver, Calgary and Halifax, among others. Flags were lowered at city halls around the country, and Canadians left flowers at multiple mosques to express support.

In Canadas largest city, Toronto, residents held a candlelight vigil and walk for the victims of the attack. Earlier Monday, hundreds demonstrated outsidethe U.S. Consulate in Toronto to oppose President Donald Trumps ban on Syrian refugees and travelers from seven Muslim-majority countries. The protest also expressed sympathy for the victims of the Quebec shooting, organizers said.

Canadas less populated northern territories, too, held vigils to condemn the attacks and mourn. A midday rally outside the remote city of Iqaluits only mosque, in the territory of Nunavut, drew dozens of people.

Similar vigils were planned for the northern cities of Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories and Yukons capital of Whitehorse.

Terrorist attacks and mass shootings are relatively rare in Canada, and the killings have shocked many citizens in a country that supports diversity and tolerance. Muslim community leaders condemned the attack Monday and said that Canadians must confront Islamophobia, something anti-discrimination activists have previously warned is a growing issue in Quebec.

Trudeau described the shooting as a terrorist attack on Muslims and pledged his support for victims and all Muslim Canadians in a statement Sunday. Numerous officials in cities and provinces around Canada also issued statements of condolences, and major party leaders echoed Trudeaus calls to stand by the countrys Muslim population.

Police arrested Alexandre Bissonnette, a French-Canadian university student, in connection with the attack. Authorities declined to speculate on possible motives. The mosque had been the target of an Islamophobic incident last June, when a pigs head was placed in front of it during Ramadan. The mosques vice president, Mohamed Labidi,said Monday that security has been a major concern for the center.

Base Gagetown’s scuba club holds annual underwater pumpkin carving contest

By Michelle Savage, Army Public Affairs with files from Gagetown Gazette newspaper

Gagetown, New Brunswick —The recreational Tankers Scuba Club located at 5th Canadian Division Support Base Gagetown puts a twist on a Halloween tradition with their annual underwater pumpkin diving and carving contest.

Teams of two divers each take the plunge, sometimes clad in full Halloween costumes over their diving gear.

The challenge for each team of pumpkin divers is to bring a buoyant pumpkin down into the water to the three-metre limit before making any cuts into the pumpkin.

“Pumpkins do float,” noted club president Major (Retired) Robert Bissonnette, who is also the base’s Deputy Personnel Support Manager.

Once all the dive teams and their pumpkins make it to the bottom, the carving and creativity begins. Spectators cheer on their carving contenders.

“This event has taken place each year for as long as the club has existed, which is more than 20 years,” said Maj(Retd) Bissonnette.

He noted that the club’s size is fluid due to postings but it generally has from 15 to 25 members, both military and civilian, at any time. Club members take part in the annual contest free of charge at the Scotch Settlement Quarry near Oromocto, New Brunswick.

The 2018 event had 10 teams of two divers each, while six teams of divers took part in the carving contest in 2017. “The temperature was colder than last year but attendance was still great,” said Maj (Retd) Bissonnette.

The day is always an enjoyable success, with a potluck meal and prizes for best carving and best costume.

The Tankers Scuba Club is a recreational dive club located at 5th Canadian Division Support Base Gagetown. The club welcomes military families and members of the community of Oromocto. They primarily certify through American Canadian Underwater Certification (ACUC) and teach all levels of courses. For information, contact tankersscubaclub@gmail.com

À l’ère où Google, Facebook et autres géants du web rivalisent avec les médias, les patrons de Cogeco Média, Bell Média, MishMash Média, Radio-Canada et La Presse se prononcent sur l'avenir du contenu local et des défis du milieu.   

Alors que Facebook et Google avalent 70% des revenus de la publicité numérique au pays, les médias locaux doivent maintenant partager en plus une autre part du gâteau avec des joueurs d'ailleurs, comme Netflix et YouTube: le contenu.

«Les médias francophones vivaient auparavant dans un environnement protégé où c'était le CRTC qui décidait qui avait le droit de jouer sur la patinoire, explique Michel Bissonnette, vice-président principal, Radio-Canada. De plus, comme les francophones de l'époque étaient peu bilingues, cela créait une dépendance envers les producteurs de contenu francophone.»

De nos jours, les Amazon, Netflix et Disney de ce monde viennent selon lui jouer sur cette patinoire, «avec des contraintes moins élevées». L'exposition à divers contenus a donc grandement augmenté, une épine de plus pour les médias d'ici de faire découvrir leur contenu à un auditoire morcelé.

Un défi de revaloriser le contenu

Comment détourner les yeux des auditoires de diffuseurs comme Netflix ou YouTube vers le contenu d'ici? Les cinq patrons de presse sont unanimes. C'est dans le contenu pertinent et connecté aux réalités locales que le paysage médiatique québécois pourra être préservé. 

«On a la chance d'avoir un star-système fort et distinctif, souligne Gerry Frappier, président, télévision francophone et RDS, Bell Média. Netflix, ce n'est pas cher, mais ce n'est pas d'ici. Il faut célébrer notre contenu, le revaloriser.» Et cela passe notamment, de son avis, par la sensibilisation du public à l'importance d'en arriver éventuellement à accepter de payer un certain prix pour le contenu.

Selon Pierre-Elliott Levasseur, président de La Presse, la monétisation doit se tourner vers des modèles plus modernes. «C'est bien de produire un contenu de qualité, mais un moment donné, elle doit être accessible à l'ensemble de la population.» Il donne en exemple The Guardian, qui ne jouit pas de la même unicité dans le type de contenu par rapport au New York Times, et qui donne ainsi accès gratuitement à son contenu à l'ensemble de la population. Il a toutefois fait tout un travail de sensibilisation sur la mission sociale du média, notamment en érigeant des mini paywalls, avec certains contenus premium et en faisant du public des ambassadeurs, qui paient un montant par année.

Nicolas Marin, président de MishMash Média, abonde dans le même sens, mais croit que c'est aux médias d'exploiter leur marque différemment afin de leur offrir de la valeur ajoutée.

«Le dernier des Mohicans»

Un ovni parmi les autres médias qui ont vu une baisse de leur auditoire, ce sont les radios. «96% des gens qui écoutent encore la radio chaque semaine, souligne Michel Lorrain, président de Cogeco Média. La radio est collée à la réalité du public et est solidement implantée dans les communautés.»

Il soutient également qu'elle a réussi avec les années à développer une bonne relation d'affaires avec les annonceurs, au-delà de la vente publicitaire, mais en «développant de produits spécifiques qui permettent  de mieux cibler leur public». Malgré cette meilleure santé, il faut tout de même, selon lui, qu'elle continue à innover et à développer des contenus de proximité.

Gerry Frappier rappelle que la responsabilité d'assurer la santé du contenu et des médias locaux doit être partagée entre annonceurs et médias. «Google et Facebook ne sont pas intéressés par nos annonceurs. Ceux-ci sont mieux servis par les médias locaux. On a donc une responsabilité commune de garder notre industrie en santé.»

Animée par Arnaud Granata, la Table ronde: les grands patrons face à l'avenir a été présentée le 14 septembre lors de la conférence Plateforme(s) - Le sommet québécois des médias.

Low altitude, speed contributed to fatal helicopter crash in northern N.B.

A new report into a fatal helicopter crash in northern New Brunswick says low altitude and speed made it difficult for the pilot to see or avoid unmarked power lines spanning a river.

The Transportation Safety Board says the pilot was likely unaware of the power transmission cables spanning the Restigouche River and did not see the lines before the helicopter collided with them.

Pilot Frederick Decoste was flying with two passengers, Quebec singer Roberto "Bob" Bissonnette and Quebec Capitales baseball team president Michel Laplante.

The report released today says fatigue may have impacted the pilot's decision-making abilities and performance, as he had limited opportunities to sleep prior to the flight.

As well, a toxicological screening suggested marijuana use by Decoste, but could not determine impairment.

The privately operated Bell 206B helicopter was en route from Charlo, N.B., to Riviere-du-Loup, Que., when it crashed into the river near Flatlands on Sept. 4, 2016.

Decoste and Bissonnette both died in the crash, but Laplante survived with non-life threatening injuries and was helped to shore by witnesses.

Bissonnette, a former Quebec Major Junior Hockey League player, later became a singer, recording comedic songs about hockey.

Thousands Of Canadians Gather At Vigils For Mosque Attack Victims

Canadians held vigils across the country Monday in a show of solidarity with the nations Muslim communities and to mourn the victims of a shooting at the Quebec City Islamic Cultural Center.

The attack during evening prayers Sunday nightkilled six people and left eight wounded. It is one of the worst mass shootings in Canadas history.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and local government officials attended a vigil a block from the Quebec City mosque. Thousands gathered in Montreal at vigils near the citys Parc and St. Michel metro stations.

We stand with you, we love you and we support you. And we will always defend and protect your right to gather together and pray, today and every day, Trudeau saidin Quebec City. Muslim Canadians are valued members of every community, and wherever they live they deserve to feel welcome and safe. They are home here.

Events were also planned at Parliament Hill in the nations capital, Ottawa, and in the cities of Vancouver, Calgary and Halifax, among others. Flags were lowered at city halls around the country, and Canadians left flowers at multiple mosques to express support.

In Canadas largest city, Toronto, residents held a candlelight vigil and walk for the victims of the attack. Earlier Monday, hundreds demonstrated outsidethe U.S. Consulate in Toronto to oppose President Donald Trumps ban on Syrian refugees and travelers from seven Muslim-majority countries. The protest also expressed sympathy for the victims of the Quebec shooting, organizers said.

Canadas less populated northern territories, too, held vigils to condemn the attacks and mourn. A midday rally outside the remote city of Iqaluits only mosque, in the territory of Nunavut, drew dozens of people.

Similar vigils were planned for the northern cities of Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories and Yukons capital of Whitehorse.

Terrorist attacks and mass shootings are relatively rare in Canada, and the killings have shocked many citizens in a country that supports diversity and tolerance. Muslim community leaders condemned the attack Monday and said that Canadians must confront Islamophobia, something anti-discrimination activists have previously warned is a growing issue in Quebec.

Trudeau described the shooting as a terrorist attack on Muslims and pledged his support for victims and all Muslim Canadians in a statement Sunday. Numerous officials in cities and provinces around Canada also issued statements of condolences, and major party leaders echoed Trudeaus calls to stand by the countrys Muslim population.

Police arrested Alexandre Bissonnette, a French-Canadian university student, in connection with the attack. Authorities declined to speculate on possible motives. The mosque had been the target of an Islamophobic incident last June, when a pigs head was placed in front of it during Ramadan. The mosques vice president, Mohamed Labidi,said Monday that security has been a major concern for the center.

In addition to vigils, Canadians and government officials set up a number of other tributes and memorials to those killed in the attack.The Quebec government made a book of condolences online to collect messages from the public in memory of the victims. Montreals city hall announcedit would turn off its lights Monday night in solidarity with the Muslim community, while Quebec City set up a Web page to collect donations for the victims families.

A moment of silence was held in Montreals city hall before Mayor Denis Coderre met with leaders of the local Muslim community.
