Humor With A Point Or Pointless Humor?

You can't really defend this under any pretense: satire, humor, mental illness, whatever. It's just plain bad - and embarrassing. Some think this is par for the course here.

Whatever comedic point they tried to make it missed. Really, where's the value here? What makes this all the more unfortunate is it was aired on Radio-Canada. Imagine if this was aired on the CBC or NPR!

I was going to write more on this but I decided to keep these thoughts to myself. I will say that Quebec is good at dishing things out (recall Michel Rivard's terrible caricature of English-Canada in a feeble attempt to explain why funding to the arts is important) but not taking it.

Since this video is making a splash around the country and since my readers come from all over the world, I'll let world opinion decide for themselves.

Welcome to the internet Quebec. The PQ hasn't figured out how to introduce a Bill 101-type law here. Yay.

In any event, this is healthy. Quebec rarely critically engages in honest self-assessment.

We're on our own on this one.
