L\u2019avez-vous remarqu\u00e9 ? J\u2019essaie de terminer mes publications sur une note plaisante, alors comme j\u2019ai d\u2019innombrables occasions de r\u00e2ler, c\u2019est par l\u00e0 que je commence le plus souvent. Puis je passe en mode plus l\u00e9ger. Peut-\u00eatre avez-vous moins de peine \u00e0 dig\u00e9rer mes col\u00e8res pr\u00e9sent\u00e9es comme cela.<\/strong>
\u00c0 premi\u00e8re vue, ma rogne d\u2019aujourd\u2019hui n\u2019est en rien comparable \u00e0 celle de la semaine derni\u00e8re : faute de suffisamment d\u2019inscriptions, nous avons d\u00fb annuler le concert pr\u00e9vu. Rien \u00e0 voir avec la bande d\u2019incapables qui nous gouvernent. Il s\u2019agit d\u2019un petit \u00e9v\u00e9nement priv\u00e9, il aurait pu avoir lieu, a \u00e9t\u00e9 report\u00e9, est-ce grave ?<\/strong>
Did you notice it? I try to end my posts on a pleasant note, so since I have countless opportunities to grumble, this is where I most often start. Then I switch to lighter mode. Perhaps you have less trouble digesting my anger when it\u2019s presented like that.<\/span><\/strong>
At first glance, my frustration today is nothing compared to that of last week: due to insufficient registrations, we had to cancel the planned concert. Nothing to do with the band of incompetents who govern us. This is a small private event, it could have happened, was postponed, does it matter?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Depuis ce jour-l\u00e0, Paul et moi avons tourn\u00e9 la question dans tous les sens : nous avons pass\u00e9 une soir\u00e9e m\u00e9morable \u00e0 \u00e9couter G\u00e9rard Morel<\/a>, toujours aussi spirituel, et profond\u00e9ment humain. Dans une salle de 240 places, \u00e0 peine plus de trente spectateurs. <\/strong>
Since that day, Paul and I have turned the question around: we spent a memorable evening listening to G\u00e9rard Morel<\/a>, always so witty, and deeply human. In a room with 240 seats, barely more than thirty spectators.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Le moment est peut-\u00eatre mal choisi : il y a pl\u00e9thore de festivals de toutes sortes en mai, en juin. On est d\u2019ailleurs peut-\u00eatre encore sous le coup des r\u00e9actions post-confinement, on a besoin de se rattraper, de vivre \u00e0 nouveau – est-ce cela que ressent celui qui sort de d\u00e9tention, toutes proportions gard\u00e9es ? Il faut donc tenir compte du contexte.<\/strong>
Mais autre chose m\u2019alarme : j\u2019envoie mes invitations \u00e0 une liste de 180 adresses. Comme elles peuvent aller dans les spams, je demande \u00e0 tous de me r\u00e9pondre, et je n\u2019ai m\u00eame pas re\u00e7u quarante r\u00e9ponses\u2026 Vous allez vous aussi me dire que les bonnes habitudes se perdent, qu\u2019on n\u2019a plus d\u2019\u00e9ducation.<\/strong>
Perhaps the timing is wrong: there are a plethora of festivals of all kinds in May, June. We are also perhaps still under the influence of post-lockdown reactions, we need to catch up, to live again – is this what the one who comes out of detention feels, all things considered? So you have to take the context into account.<\/span><\/strong>
But something else worries me: I send my invitations to a list of 180 addresses. As they can go to spam, I ask everyone to answer me, and I haven’t even received forty answers… You too will tell me that good habits are lost, that we no longer have education .<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Je vais encore une fois partager avec vous mon inqui\u00e9tude \u00e0 cause de ce tissu social qui se rel\u00e2che, qui s\u2019effrite, qui se d\u00e9grade. C\u2019est trop facile de parler de bonne ou de mauvaise \u00e9ducation, il faut aller plus au fond des choses : si mes correspondants ne me r\u00e9pondent pas, est-ce aussi par lassitude ? Dans des cas extr\u00eames, s\u2019agit-il de la mort du d\u00e9sir de partager ? Rencontrer des gens, se confronter, \u00e9changer, c\u2019est vivre, que signifie ce repli sur soi ? Je n\u2019invente rien, dans mon entourage beaucoup de gens le ressentent, ce n\u2019est pas juste une impolitesse.<\/strong>
I will once again share with you my concern because of this social fabric which is loosening, which is crumbling, which is deteriorating. It’s too easy to talk about good or bad education, we have to go deeper into things: if my correspondents don’t answer me, is it also out of weariness? In extreme cases, is it the death of the desire to share? To meet people, to confront, to exchange is to live, what does this withdrawal into oneself mean? I’m not making this up, many people around me feel it, it’s not just rudeness.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

J\u2019aime beaucoup l\u2019expression \u00ab tissu social \u00bb. Un tissu est compos\u00e9 d\u2019un grand nombre de fibres et elles sont si fines qu\u2019on ne voit pas chaque brin, on ne voit que leur assemblage. Une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 est un \u00ab organe \u00bb infiniment complexe, il en faut des fils tordus dans le mauvais sens pour obtenir un moche tissu tout mou sans caract\u00e8re et sans tenue, il en faut pour faire basculer toute une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 du mauvais c\u00f4t\u00e9 !<\/strong>
I really like the term \u00ab social fabric \u00bb. A fabric is made up of a large number of fibers and they are so fine that we do not see each strand, we only see their assembly. A society is an infinitely complex \u00ab organ \u00bb, it takes threads of it twisted the wrong way to get an ugly limp fabric with no character and no hold, it takes a lot to tip to the wrong way to the whole society!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Peut-on parler de paradoxe ?<\/strong>
L\u2019esp\u00e8ce humaine a invent\u00e9 le langage, puis l\u2019\u00e9criture. Parmi d\u2019innombrables autres inventions extraordinaires. Les incapables qui nous gouvernent font partie de cette esp\u00e8ce pourtant tellement intelligente, et penser \u00e0 cela me donne le vertige.<\/strong>
J\u2019en reviens \u00e0 notre tissu, fabriqu\u00e9 comme un nid d\u2019oiseau avec tout ce qui leur tombe sous le bec. Avec le pire et le meilleur qui se c\u00f4toient. Cela a toujours \u00e9t\u00e9 le cas.<\/strong>
Le malheur, c\u2019est le pouvoir que prennent les m\u00e9diocres, et les mauvais choix qui aujourd\u2019hui risquent de\u2026 Bref, vous le savez, je ne m\u2019\u00e9terniserai pas l\u00e0-dessus.<\/strong>
Can we speak of a paradox?<\/span><\/strong>
The human species invented language, then writing. Among countless other extraordinary inventions. The incompetents who govern us are part of this species yet so intelligent, and thinking about it makes me dizzy.<\/span><\/strong>
I come back to our fabric, made like a bird’s nest with everything that falls under their beak. With the worst and the best that rub shoulders. This has always been the case.<\/span><\/strong>
The misfortune is the power taken by the mediocre, and the bad choices which today risk\u2026 In short, you know it, I will not dwell on this.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

J\u00e9r\u00f4me, chanceux, a rencontr\u00e9 l\u2019auteure Gabrielle Filteau-Chiba et lui a demand\u00e9 de nous d\u00e9dicacer son dernier opus, Bivouac. Paul et moi avons d\u00e9vor\u00e9 l\u2019ouvrage. On y retrouve les personnages de ses romans pr\u00e9c\u00e9dents, \u00ab Encaban\u00e9e \u00bb et \u00ab Sauvagines \u00bb, deux livres que j\u2019aime. Ce Bivouac m\u2019a boulevers\u00e9e comme un livre r\u00e9ussit rarement \u00e0 le faire. J\u2019ai plus l\u2019impression d\u2019avoir rencontr\u00e9 ces activistes, d\u2019avoir lutt\u00e9 avec eux pour prot\u00e9ger la for\u00eat. Les grandes compagnies sont puissantes, ont l\u2019appui des gouvernants et de la police, r\u00e9ussissent \u00e0 obtenir l\u2019autorisation de massacrer la for\u00eat.<\/strong>
J\u00e9r\u00f4me, lucky, met the author Gabrielle Filteau-Chiba and asked her to autograph her latest opus, Bivouac, for us. Paul and I devoured the book. It features characters from her previous novels, \u00ab Encaban\u00e9e \u00bb and \u00ab Sauvagines \u00bb, two books that I love. This Bivouac overwhelmed me as a book rarely manages to do. I have more the impression of having met these activists, of having fought with them to protect the forest. The big companies are powerful, have the support of the rulers and the police, manage to obtain authorization to massacre the forest.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

p 329 Comment se fait-il que des compagnies aient le feu vert en l\u2019absence d\u2019\u00e9valuations environnementales, sans m\u00eame avoir obtenu le consentement \u00e9clair\u00e9 des principaux affect\u00e9s ?* Les lobbies des foresti\u00e8res et des p\u00e9troli\u00e8res ont corrompu le syst\u00e8me, tout simplement.

* Il s\u2019agit bien entendu des Premi\u00e8res Nations, non consult\u00e9es.<\/strong>
p 329 How is it that companies get the green light in the absence of environmental assessments, without even having obtained the informed consent of the principals affected?* The lobbies of the forestry and oil companies have simply corrupted the system.

Ce beau roman est \u00e9crit en pur qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois, il y a m\u00eame \u00e0 la fin un glossaire parfois bien utile. Sauf que souvent le contexte fait sens.<\/strong>
Il y a comme un aller-retour permanent de la vie militante \u00e0 la vie sentimentale, une \u00e9criture fluide et directe. Gabrielle n\u2019a pas peur des mots et elle te fait partager l\u2019intimit\u00e9 des personnages. On se sent nu de leur nudit\u00e9.<\/strong>
La magie de l\u2019\u00e9criture, c\u2019est de te faire entrer dans une autre r\u00e9alit\u00e9 en quittant ta propre r\u00e9alit\u00e9. C\u2019est particuli\u00e8rement sensible avec ce livre-l\u00e0.<\/strong>
This beautiful novel is written in pure Quebec language, there is even at the end a sometimes very useful glossary. Except that often the context makes sense.<\/span><\/strong>
There is like a constant back and forth from militant life to sentimental life, a fluid and direct writing. Gabrielle is not afraid of words and she makes you share the intimacy of the characters. We feel naked from their nudity.<\/span><\/strong>
The magic of writing is to make you enter another reality by leaving your own reality. It is particularly noticeable with this book.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

However, the week has been busy. For the record, we gave fish, there are too many in the pond. I borrowed a real landing net after a failure with the toy I had.
