Since Legault took power in 2018, I’ve come to remember him for:
Thinking the been on face coverings and religious symbols hasn’t gone far enough
Blaming nurses, not employers, for patients’ issues rising from the nurses’ strike
Bill 96, which has let them require all businesses have French signage (replaced at their own cost), prohibition of already-existing English government resources, and limits the number of students in English speaking schools
Limiting funding to English-speaking universities in Montreal
Limiting immigration in an attempt to make sure that a limited amount of non-French speakers move in
Forming a committee literally named “The Committee of Sages” in order to determine protections and rights for trans people, which also has no trans people, or any LGBTQ+ people
Advocating for removal of an anti-Palestinian protest camped out on a university’s grounds
And now for fucking with strike protections. When the one good thing I can think to say is “He didn’t fuck up the COVID response,” that’s a pretty bad track record.
Something tells me Montreal won’t be too happy about this one.

I wasn’t aware of many of those, thanks for sharing. Those are hateful, deeply bigoted policies.
