Eleven Montreal teachers who were suspended for allegedly creating a climate of fear and intimidation inside a Montreal primary school were replaced Monday as the union that represents them rejected criticism from the education minister that it didn't do enough to correct the problem. Quebec's largest school service centre announced the suspensions on Saturday night after a government investigation found a "dominant clan" of teachers imposed strict, autocratic rule over students and intimidated colleagues who opposed them, at Bedford school in the city's multicultural Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood. During an appearance Sunday on Radio-Canada talk show "Tout le monde en parle," Education Minister Bernard Drainville alleged the union knew about the issues at the school but did not defend teachers who were opposing the so-called "dominant clan."

Hi! Sorry if you already answered this before, but I’m so curious about the name for Matt and Francis’ tag. Is it from a poem? Google translate really is not helpful 😭

Ah! It's a pun. So Trivia or Trivial Pursuit the random knowledge funfact game was created in Quebec in the late 1970s and early 1980s under the name Quelques arpents de pièges. Or "a few acres of traps." This is itself a pun from 'quelques arpents de neige.' A few acres of snow. Voltaire, the famous French philosopher wrote this and just paragraphs and paragraphs about how much of a waste Canada is, how useless and expensive and a suck on the economy. The man just really hated Canada lmao. He wasn't wrong but goddamn its just a LOT of ink about how shitty Matt is lmao. But I took the punny version and used it because a few acres of traps also describes the Canadian experience in France in the world wars, the tricky nature of the Atlantic Francophone world and the general finicky relationship between them despite there being moments when things are all right between them. Also I'm a slut for a good pun.
