When the aliens landed, they told a young musician and wannabe race car driver that he was the chosen one, and they were the real gods. He should build them an embassy with a UFO landing pad in order to prepare humanity for their arrival. They taught him the secrets of sex meditation and cloning DNA as a way to keep switching bodies and never die.  Not much in his story was original, but this was the 1970s, so free love hippies flocked to his French commune—then it all turned to shit. Somehow Claude kept landing on his feet. He took his schtick to Quebec, then Japan, and even found thousands of followers in Africa. Still no embassy, no divine alien arrival, no cloned human babies—but he kept raising funds from the gullible and living like a king with a ballerina bride 40 years his junior.

Episode #337: U Jagara's journey is characterized by a deep commitment to spiritual practice, resilience, and the pursuit of authenticity. Growing up in a small town in Quebec, his early life was marked by a desire to find meaning beyond the material world. Inspired by his brother, U Jagara took his first vipassana meditation course with S.N. Goenka, and eventually traveled to Europe, India, and Burma, where he ordained as a monk under Mahasi Sayadaw. He persevered in this endeavor despite the challenges posed by cultural differences and an unstable, political climate.Visa issues forced U Jagara to leave Burma, prompting him to continue his monastic journey in Sri Lanka. There, U he lived a simple ascetic lifestyle, re-incorporating the Goenka meditation method into his practice as he also ventured to India for long retreats, and spending time in isolated, mountain hermitages. He emphasizes the importance of embodying spiritual principles in all aspects of daily life, not just during formal meditation sessions.After 15 years, U Jagara took a break from monastic life, moving to France where he disrobed, lived a lay lifestyle, and fell in love. This phase offered insights into attachment, intimacy, and the balance between worldly and spiritual commitments. Eventually, Burma's reopening led him back; he re-ordained, focusing on cultivating advanced meditative states at Pa Auk Monastery.A key theme throughout his journey is balancing structure and freedom in spiritual practice. U Jagara stresses the importance of critical inquiry and creativity, cautioning against rigid attachment to any one tradition. He acknowledges the human vulnerabilities of monks, advocating for a realistic understanding of spiritual life. His story encourages embracing both discipline and freedom, while maintaining an urgency to pursue true liberation—a journey that requires resilience, openness, and a willingness to question and adapt.As U Jagara puts it, “Sometimes we need a slap from reality that helps us to wake up to the fact that we are going to die, and that the sickness and all these things are just part of our existence. When we are aware of that, then we will keep that kind of eagerness just to keep our life in that direction. It's a sense of urgency, saṃvega, that dimension in Buddhism.”

What's the biggest mistake landlords make during lease renewal season?   In this episode, I sit down with Cory Friedman, founder of KompasPM.com, to dig into the real struggles of property owners and managers—especially during Quebec's intense lease renewal cycle. Cory explains how having proper accounting systems and a smart approach to rent increases isn't just helpful—it's essential. From navigating rent control laws to understanding tenant consent for digital delivery, we cover how to simplify the renewal process and avoid delays that cost both time and money.   We also talk about the human side of property management. Cory reminds us that tenant relationships don't start at renewal—they start on day one. And if you're not communicating clearly or responding to requests throughout the lease, don't be surprised if that renewal turns into a negotiation or, worse, a court case. Cory shares why it's better to know your numbers, prepare early, and stay flexible when needed.   We wrap with a discussion on tech shifts and lead generation. Cory explains how the rental market is evolving with AI tools, new listing platforms, and rental agents stepping in to help owners keep up. If you want to scale your property business, avoid tenant headaches, and boost your lease conversion rates, you'll want to hear what Cory has to say.   Tune in if you want to stop scrambling at renewal time, reduce vacancy, and stay ahead of the rental curve.   —   Tired of spreadsheets and admin headaches in your rental business?   If you're a real estate investor looking to simplify operations and grow your portfolio, Kompas is your new best friend. This all-in-one property management and accounting software helps you automate the tedious stuff—like receivables, renewals, and leasing—so you can focus on creating value.   Boost your cash flow, improve your NOI, cut down back-office work, and scale with confidence.

Small Cap Breaking News You Can't Miss! Here's a quick rundown of the latest updates from standout small-cap companies making big moves today.Northern Graphite (TSXV: NGC) Northern Graphite has partnered with The BMI Group to explore the development of a Battery Anode Material (BAM) facility at a former paper mill in Baie-Comeau, Quebec. This project could fast-track the production of battery-grade graphite—crucial for electric vehicle batteries—by repurposing existing infrastructure. The 50,000 tpa facility would draw feedstock from Northern's global assets and bolster Canada's role in clean tech supply chains.Rua Gold (TSXV: RUA) Rua Gold reported high-grade intercepts from its Auld Creek project in New Zealand, including 5.9 g/t AuEq over 9m and 48.3 g/t AuEq over 1.25m. These results point to strong gold and antimony potential—especially significant as antimony prices surge due to global supply constraints. The company is targeting resource expansion in a historically productive mining region.West Point Gold (TSXV: WPG) West Point Gold continues to deliver from its Gold Chain Project in Arizona. Recent drilling at the Tyro Main Zone hit 22.86m of 3.34 g/t gold and 28.95m of 1.92 g/t gold. These near-surface results support the company's view that Tyro could become one of the highest-grade open-pit gold projects in northwest Arizona. A maiden resource estimate is on the horizon.Independence Gold (TSXV: IGO) Independence Gold is turning heads with strong drill results at its 3Ts Project in B.C., including 5.95 g/t gold over 7.45m from the Larry Vein and a new discovery at the Daisy target. The project benefits from proximity to Artemis Gold's Blackwater Mine and continues to show scale and high-grade potential across multiple zones.Draganfly (CSE: DPRO) Draganfly has launched a Public Safety Advisory Board and appointed Homeland Security expert Paul Goldenberg as Chair. This move reinforces the company's focus on applying drone and AI technology to modern law enforcement and emergency response needs. Goldenberg's leadership is expected to enhance public safety applications while ensuring responsible and ethical integration.Stay ahead of the curve with AGORACOM.

Interview with Peter Van Alphen, President & CEO of Nuvau Minerals Corp.Recording date: 11th April 2025Nuavu Minerals is set to transform the historic Matagami mining camp in Quebec, Canada through a dual strategy of near-term production and extensive exploration across its substantial 1,300 square kilometer property. Under the leadership of President and CEO Peter van Alphen, the company is nearing completion of an earning agreement with Glencore that will grant them 100% ownership of this past-producing base metal asset.The company plans a two-phase production approach, beginning with restarting the recently closed Bracemac McLeod mine, which contains approximately one million tons of resource with a potential to expand to two million tons. This "starter mine" would provide roughly three years of production while the company develops the Caber complex on the western side of the property. The Caber complex contains approximately 10 years of defined resources across three deposits, representing the first significant development on the western portion of the property in the camp's 60-year production history.A key advantage for Nuavu is the relatively modest capital requirement of approximately $50 million to restart operations, including refurbishing the existing 3,000-ton-per-day mill, which they have the option to acquire for $5 million. Van Alphen estimates the total infrastructure value included in the deal at $300-400 million.The exploration potential is equally compelling, with over 80 VMS-style deposit targets identified across the property. Perhaps most intriguing is the recently discovered gold potential, which includes what may be the highest gold grain count ever found in the Abitibi region, with over 2,000 grains of pristine gold particles per 10kg sample. The property sits on the Sunday Lake deformation zone, which hosts major gold deposits along strike.Van Alphen brings valuable experience from FNX Mining, Lake Shore Gold, Tahoe Resources, and Premier Gold, with a track record of revitalizing past-producing mines through hands-on management. "This could be the FNX of Quebec," he notes, drawing parallels to previous successful mine restarts.With strong community support in Matagami, a mining-friendly jurisdiction in Quebec, and a targeted production start in 2027, Nuavu is positioning itself at the intersection of near-term production potential and significant exploration upside in both base metals and gold, creating multiple potential value drivers for the company as it works to revitalize this historic mining region.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this interview with AGORACOM, Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE: RFR | OTCQB: RFHRF | FSE: 9RR) CEO Nicole Brewster discusses the company's newly updated 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate for its 100%-owned Parbec Gold Deposit in Quebec — a move that significantly strengthens the company's value proposition at a time when gold prices continue to surge.The updated estimate now totals 363,000 ounces of gold, marking a 29% increase over the previous figure and signaling growing maturity and confidence in the deposit. Notably, 265,000 ounces are now categorized as Measured and Indicated, and 87% of the total resource sits within an open pit — directly adjacent to Agnico Eagle's Canadian Malartic Mine, one of Canada's largest gold operations.KEY HIGHLIGHTS:Open Pit Advantage: With mineralization starting at surface and a pit depth of 300 meters, Parbec's economics are compelling, especially with nearby toll milling options.Strategic Fit for Agnico: The project's location beside Canadian Malartic and proximity to multiple mills makes it a potential solution for Agnico Eagle's "fill-the-mill" strategy — especially amid $5.6B in M&A activity in the district.Clear Monetization Path: CEO Nicole Brewster outlines a three-path strategy: sale, joint venture, or self-development, including a plan to initiate stripping and bulk sampling this summer for potential cash flow.A COMPELLING QUOTE FROM THE CEO“We are very happy to deliver this significant size increase to our open pit gold deposit next door to Agnico Eagle's Canadian Malartic mine… With this MRE, 87% of the gold ounces within the resource estimate are contained within the accompanying open pit.” — Nicole Brewster, CEOWHY INVESTORS SHOULD WATCH THIS INTERVIEW Renforth has done what many small caps struggle to achieve: increase its resource size while also upgrading confidence categories — all while controlling costs and maintaining 100% ownership in one of the world's top-ranked mining jurisdictions. With strategic positioning next to Canada's mining giant, viable paths to monetization, and growing relevance in a high-gold-price environment, Parbec is moving from potential to probability.This interview isn't just an update — it's a real-time look into how Renforth is strategically unlocking value from its assets and evaluating serious next steps.Watch the full interview now to understand why Renforth could be a key player in Quebec's next wave of gold development

Yet in Quebec, Bloc Quebecois leader Yves-Francois Blanchet took the opposite tack, downplaying separatist sentiment and arguing Canada needs to be united in its response to Donald Trump's tariffs. So is separatism really a ballot box issue this time around?

Yet in Quebec, Bloc Quebecois leader Yves-Francois Blanchet took the opposite tack, downplaying separatist sentiment and arguing Canada needs to be united in its response to Donald Trump's tariffs. So is separatism really a ballot box issue this time around?

What happens when self-storage becomes a space for transformation and empowerment?   In this episode, I sit down with Andrea Lafrechoux, Director of Real Estate at Avenir Properties, to talk about Montreal Mini Storage's newest location—and the bigger mission behind it. Andrea shares how their latest development is not just about lockers and square footage, but about creating meaningful spaces that support women entrepreneurs and community needs. From a co-working space dedicated to women to partnerships with Scotiabank and local artists, this project was built differently—with heart, purpose, and intention.   We explore how urban planning and adaptive reuse can reshape real estate's role in our lives, especially when companies truly listen to the community. Andrea also speaks about initiatives like “Ladies Who Launch” and how design choices—from lighting to layout—can create safer, more inclusive environments. This isn't just about storage. It's about building better spaces for real life.   What you will learn if you listen to the episode:   - Women leaders in real estate and storage - Building co-working spaces for women entrepreneurs - Montreal Mini Storage launches 24th location - How real estate can support community needs - Adaptive reuse in Quebec real estate projects - Self-storage as essential service in urban planning - Creating safe and inclusive spaces for business growth   SUPPORT US ON PATREON!    patreon.com/realestateeffect and become a part of our real estate family!

Straddling the US-Canadian border, the Haskell Library has a unique location: it is situated in both the towns of Stanstead, Quebec and Derby Line, Vermont. Until now, an agreement allowed Canadians to use a stretch of pavement on the American side to access the library. But since a controversial visit by US Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem back in January, US Border Protection has put an end to that agreement. As the iconic border town now awaits the fate of its century-old customs posts and famous Canusa Street, Stanstead already embodies the growing divide between Americans and Canadians. FRANCE 24's François Rihouay, Joanne Profeta and Fraser Jackson report.

Canada-U.S. relations council member and former Quebec premier Jean Charest discusses where negotiations with the U.S. stand, after Prime Minister Mark Carney emerged from today's council meeting saying he'd leave instructions to help the 'next government' prepare for talks with the U.S. President Donald Trump in early May. Plus, Unifor president Lana Payne discusses how much U.S. tariffs and retaliatory tariffs factored into the halt in production at an Ontario GM plant that's laying off hundreds of workers.

His shows have sold millions of tickets around the world, he has a Netflix stand-up special called “Les fleurs du tapis,” and he's also a judge on “Quel talent!” (Quebec's version of “Canada's Got Talent”). But now, Rachid is ready to make a name for himself in the English-speaking world. He sits down with guest host Garvia Bailey to talk about his journey in comedy, what it's like translating his French jokes into English, and how stand-up has helped him embrace his Moroccan heritage.

Today we're diving into one of the biggest threats to your real estate portfolio—water damage. If you're investing in Quebec, especially around Montreal, this episode is a must-listen.I'm going to break down the numbers—how much this stuff is actually costing property owners—and share what happened during this summer's crazy flooding. I'll give you a few horror stories (some personal ones too), and then we'll get tactical: what causes water damage, what it costs, and how you can evaluate the risk in any property you buy. Whether it's flood zones, broken sump pumps, or outdated piping—if you're not factoring in water risk, you're leaving your portfolio exposed.

When you hear about separatism in Canada, you may immediately think of Quebec. But in recent years, a growing separatist movement in Western Canada has emerged as a possible threat to national unity. With provincial governments in Alberta and Saskatchewan increasingly at odds with the federal government in Ottawa, is the future of confederation on the ballot in this election? Host David Smith speaks with Jon Roe from the Angus Reid Institute about the latest public opinion research on separatism in different regions of the country.We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes.

While other regions scramble for critical minerals, Quebec launched its strategy in 2020—years ahead of competitors. In this exclusive Stocks to Watch interview, Patrice Roy, Quebec's Director of Geological Information at the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests, shares why the province beat the entire continent to launching North America's first critical minerals plan. Patrice discusses how Quebec's resource sector is preparing for potential trade policy shifts under US President Trump while developing strategic partnerships across Europe and Asia that most investors haven't noticed. As global demand for EV battery materials intensifies, discover which minerals Quebec has prioritized and how the government is using tax credits, certification schemes, and renewable energy advantages to attract international developers. Furthermore, she also shares her perspective on Quebec's approach to sustainable mining, social acceptability challenges, and the infrastructure developments making the province "one of the most attractive ecosystems for mining exploration in the world."Learn more about the initiatives of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests: https://mrnf.gouv.qc.ca/en/Watch the full YouTube interview here: https://youtu.be/Hsv_gi9gL1kAnd follow us to stay updated: https://www.youtube.com/@GlobalOneMedia?sub_confirmation=1

On the banks of the St Lawrence River in Quebec stands a 100-year-old lighthouse. While initially built to help boats navigate one of Canada's most difficult waterways, the Point-de-Père site now also holds a different responsibility: it is a key reference for measuring sea levels around the entire North America continent. But this is all set to change. With the development of new satellite technology, the tricky task of measuring sea levels is being updated - which could mean mountains around North America get brand new official heights. In this episode we revisit a question from CrowdScience listener Beth, who wondered about the elevation signs she saw scattered along a mountainous road, indicating how high above sea level she was. As sea levels rise, will all the elevation signs need repainting? And how do you measure sea level, anyway? The height of an enormous pile of rock like Ben Nevis, or Mount Everest feels unchangeable. But we measure them relative to the nearest patch of sea, which is where our story becomes complicated. Unlike water in a bath, sea level is not equal around the world. In fact, nothing on earth - not the sea, the shore or the mountains - is stable or constant, so the question of what you measure from and to becomes incredibly tricky. But that hasn't stopped scientists risking life and fingers to use an ever-evolving array of technologies to find answers. Join host Marnie Chesterton as she dives into the mechanics of the latest sea level technology, and how it could make a big difference to understanding our unpredictable world.

Chris Smith had long made a tradition of planning annual motorcycle adventures with friends and family. The year before, their trip was cut short when several people dropped out due to various challenges. This time, with a smaller group, they pushed farther—riding through active wildfires on their way to the end of Quebec's remote Trans-Taiga Road. After a night camping at the Caniapiscau Reservoir, they began the ride back toward Radisson as the smoke thickened and the sky darkened. Pressing on, they discovered the road south had been closed due to the fires. Stranded for a couple of days, they made the most of it—sharing meals, swapping stories, and strengthening the bonds that make these adventures unforgettable. This wasn't just another ride. It was a reminder of why they go: for the adventure, the challenge, and the connection.
