🏛️ Government & Politics

  1. Si Paul St‑Pierre Plamondon nanumpa bilang ika‑34 na punong ministro ng Quebec. Nanumpa siya noong Miyerkules at nagtalaga ng 22‑myembrong gabinete na may siyam na babae at 14 na lalaki, mas maliit kumpara sa nauna—ang gabinete ng CAQ na may 28 ministro. Nanalo ang Parti Québécois ng 59 upuan sa halalan noong 5 Oktubre at ngayo’y namumuno sa isang minoryang pamahalaan habang nagpapatuloy ang muling pagbibilang sa dalawang mga distrito na maaaring makaapekto sa kanilang pag‑abante tungo sa mayorya.
  2. Hindi isinantabi ng Punong Ministro Mark Carney ang posibilidad na makakuha ng kapangyarihang tulad ng sa Quebec ang Alberta sa usaping imigrasyon. Sinabi ni Carney na “titingnan natin” nang tanungin siya sa Parliament Hill at binanggit na “iba ang Quebec” dahil sa wika at kultura. Mga 53 porsiyento ng mga taga‑Alberta ang bumoto ng oo sa isang referendum tungkol sa kontrol ng probinsya sa imigrasyon, at sinabi ng Premier ng Alberta na si Danielle Smith kay Carney na inihahanda ng kaniyang pamahalaan ang isang panukala para sa Ottawa.

  1. Pinutol ng Les Éditions du Boréal ang ugnayan sa may‑akdang si Thélyson Orélien dahil sa umano’y paggamit ng AI. Sinabi ng publisher na nagpakita ang pagsusuri ng metadata na ginamit ang AI sa nobelang pamumuno niyang C’était ça ou mourir at inanunsyo nitong hindi nila muling iibahin ang libro ni hindi rin maglalathala pa ng iba pang akda ni Orélien. Inutusan ng pahayagan ang isang panlabas na pagsusuri at sinabi nilang hindi sumagot si Orélien sa mga kahilingan para sa komento.
  2. Ang duo na Angine de Poitrine mula sa Quebec maglulunsad ng paglilibot sa buong mundo noong 2027, magsisimula sa 4 Marso sa Melbourne. Tatamaan ng tour ang Timog Amerika, Hilagang Amerika at Europa at magtatapos sa Saguenay, Que.; walong petsa sa Canada kabilang ang Calgary, Ottawa at Winnipeg at isang headline sa Toronto sa RBC Amphitheatre. Noong Setyembre nanalo ang duo ng 30,000 dolyar ng Canada sa Polaris Music Prize at 10,000 dolyar ng Canada sa SOCAN Polaris Song Prize.
  3. Natalo ang Montreal Canadiens ng 4–3 sa overtime laban sa San Jose Sharks. Nangyari ang pagkatalo Miyerkules sa overtime, na may goal ni Nick Suzuki at isang highlight goal mula kay Juraj Slafkovsky, habang binanggit sa ulat ang mga maagang paghihirap ni Jakub Dobes sa season. Naiwan ang Montreal na may isa pang overtime decision matapos ang isang panalo sa regulasyon sa kanilang unang walong laro.
  4. Ipinapakita ng pananaliksik na bumagal ang pag‑alis ng mga anglophone mula sa Quebec mula noong kalagitnaan ng ika‑20 siglo. Natuklasan ng papel ng Quebec English‑Speaking Communities Research Network nina Simon‑Pierre Lacasse at Meghan Rulli na halos 20 porsiyento ng mga nagsasalita ng Ingles ang umalis sa Quebec mula huling bahagi ng 1960s hanggang unang bahagi ng 1980s, isang netong pagkawala na humigit‑kumulang 121,000 anglophone, ngunit bumaba ang rate sa mga nakaraang dekada.
