Since the federal government scrapped its carbon tax, Quebec stands alone as the only province with its own price on carbon. Now the Quebec government is facing calls from some corners to eliminate it, in order to bring down the price at the pump. But some experts say that would put us even further from our climate goals. And some Quebecers are still trying to wrap their heads around what exactly we're paying — and where the money goes.
Elias Makos is joined by Anthony Koch, Former National Spokesperson for Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and current managing principal at AK Strategies, and Jonathan Kalles, Vice President at McMillan Vantage, a national public affairs firm, and former advisor to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Most Quebecers believe the province should reduce its record $14 billion deficit by taxing the wealthy, not by cutting public services Anthony's piece in the National Post on major changes in the UK on immigration

Quebec is a crucial battleground in this election, with enough seats to give any party a decisive lead. But with U.S. President Donald Trump's threats and tariffs roiling Canadian politics, some Quebecers only seem sure of what they're voting against, not for. As part of The Current's election series, Crossroads: Coast to Coast with Canadian Voters, Matt Galloway went to Quebec City to talk to voters about the decision they have to make.
Political analyst David Heurtel is a counsel at Fasken with experience in Government and Public Relations, Environment, Climate Change and Immigration. He can be heard regularly on Montreal Now with Aaron Rand.

As of this month, if you buy an electric car in Quebec, you'll be paying for it entirely out of your own pocket. The federal rebate program for electric vehicles has ended early and the Quebec program is on pause until April, before being phased out in 2027. Both Quebec and Canada have goals to eliminate the sale of new internal combustion engine vehicles by 2035. But with less subsidy money on the table and with all the economic uncertainty of U.S. tariff threats, can we still meet that goal?

A Montreal-area Walmart customer created a buzz on social media after he recorded an interaction between himself and an employee. In the video, the customer can be heard asking the French-speaking employee to be served in English. The employee, feeling her English was not good enough, offered to get a colleague who could better serve him. Yet the customer persisted in his request and even switches to speaking in French. Was the video a setup? Was his social stunt a disservice to English-speaking Quebecers? Montrealers shared their thoughts with Montreal Now's Aaron Rand.
Robyn Flynn caps off the week with Justine McIntyre, Strategic consultant and former city councillor and Andrew Caddell, president of the Task Force on Linguistic policy.

Episode 338: The Great North American Ice Storm of January 1998 was a devastating natural disaster caused by five consecutive ice storms affecting eastern Ontario, southern Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, northern New York, and central Maine. Montreal and southern Quebec were hardest hit, with freezing rain from January 4th to 9th accumulating up to 100 millimetres, collapsing trees, power lines, and steel towers. Nearly 3.5 million Quebecers and 600,000 Ontarians lost power, with blackouts lasting up to 33 days. The storm claimed 34 lives and led to the largest Canadian military deployment since the Korean War. The disaster tested the resilience of residents, who endured extreme cold and isolation while demonstrating heroism and community spirit.

Parliament is back with a bang! In a slick social media video, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh announced he couldn't stomach working with the minority Liberals anymore and he was shifting his focus to the next election and taking the fight to Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre. That was music to the ears of Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet who's been sidelined for most of the Liberals' third mandate.With Singh walking away, Blanchet would be able to put the squeeze on the Liberals and try to extract as much as he could for Quebecers — and for his own party.The new chess moves didn't phase Poilievre who's tried to tie both the NDP and the Bloc to the unpopular Grits. In a news conference this week, Poilievre said he would move a non-confidence vote at the earliest opportunity and dared the other opposition parties to say how they would vote ahead of two crucial by-elections Monday. Those races could help determine whether the NDP has any momentum and whether Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's brand is as toxic as Liberal MPs report hearing it is.This week, at the party's national caucus meetings in Nanaimo, there was a show of unity behind closed doors but not in public… Interesting times. This week on “It's Political,” we'll hear from the lone MP still calling for Justin Trudeau to go. New Brunswick's Wayne Long is voicing what most of his colleagues say behind closed doors. We'll hear from Vancouver Island residents on their prime minister's decision to stay and what they think of the Liberal government's record so far. Of course, we'll also hear from some Liberal MPs on this — and on the Grits' new economic advisor, likely Liberal leadership candidate Mark Carney. Then, we'll unpack it all with Toronto Star Ottawa Bureau chief Tonda MacCharles, Toronto Star Ottawa reporter Alex Ballingall, and former Liberal pollster Dan Arnold, the chief strategy officer at Pollara. In this episode: Saint John—Rothesay MP Wayne Long, Brossard—Saint-Lambert MP Alexandra Mandès, Glengarry—Prescott—Russell MP Francis Drouin, Kings—Hants MP Kody Blois, Brampton North MP Ruby Sahota, Vancouver Island residents Baz Baz, Montah McGee and David Smith, and Toronto Star Ottawa Bureau chief Tonda MacCharles, Toronto Star Ottawa reporter Alex Ballingall, former Liberal pollster Dan Arnold, the chief strategy officer at Pollara. Hosted by Althia Raj. Some of the clips this week were sourced from CPAC, CBC, and CTV. This episode of “It's Political” was produced by Althia Raj and Kevin Sexton. Matt Hearn is our sound engineer. Our theme music is by Isaac Joel.

Justice Minister Simon Jolin-Barrette will soon table a bill better regulating the how and why of tipping in the province. Quebec will also make adjustments to how grocery stores display pricing - ensuring the price of a single item is clearly marked. After publishing an open letter in Journal de Montreal criticising his own party, CAQ MNA Youri Chassin will make an announcement this morning about his political future. Now why should anyone care about a Saint-Jérôme MNA you've never heard of before? Well, after leaving the Montreal Economic Institute to enter politics, Chassin has become increasingly disgruntled with not being named a minister, and with Quebec's ballooning deficit. His economic right leanings and feelings of malcontent could mean he would run into the arms of Eric Duhaime and the Conservatives - giving that party an MNA. A third of Canadians now say they are political orphans. Are you, and if so, why?New Angus Reid polling shows Quebec to be more open to foreign workers than the rest of Canada. Overall, 42% of Quebecers believe that there are too many temporary foreign workers in the country, much less than in Ontario (61%) or Alberta (65%).

Le gouvernement caquiste du Québec a récemment proposé une nouvelle mesure qui, selon le premier ministre François Legault, protégera la langue française. Cette mesure consiste à augmenter les frais de scolarité pour les personnes non-québécoises souhaitant étudier dans une université au Québec. Comme cette hausse aurait certainement un impact sur les universités anglophones qui accueillent un grand nombre d'étudiant.es de l'extérieur de la province, les médias à travers le pays ont rapidement exprimé leur inquiétude. Andrew Parkin, directeur général de l'Environics Institute, se joint à Emilie pour discuter de la façon dont cette nouvelle mesure influence la perception du Québec par le reste du Canada. Andrew nous offre également un aperçu d'une nouvelle enquête par l'Environics Institute et l'Initiative du Siècle qui démontre que les attitudes envers l'immigration sont en train de changer parmi les Canadiens. Quebec's CAQ government recently proposed a new measure which, according to Premier François Legault, will protect the French language. The measure involves raising tuition fees for non-Quebecers wishing to study at a university in Quebec. As this increase would certainly have an impact on English-language universities, which welcome a large number of students from outside the province, media outlets across the country were quick to express their concern. Andrew Parkin, Executive Director of the Environics Institute, joins Emilie to discuss how this new measure affects the rest of Canada's perception of Quebec. Andrew also provides an overview of a new study by the Environics Institute and the Century Initiative, which shows that attitudes towards immigration are changing among Canadians.Animation: Emilie NicolasGénérique: Nancy Pettinicchio (Production), Tristan Capacchione (Production technique), Karyn Pugliese (Rédactrice en chef)Coanimation: Andrew ParkinPour en savoir plus :Tarifs pour les étudiants non résidents : Québec garde le cap, malgré la grogne – Radio-CanadaSarah Jama expulsée du caucus : soutien des citoyens, divisions au NPD – Radio-CanadaSarah Jama sur XDoug Ford sur X Si vous appréciez ce podcast, soutenez-nous !

Today's episode was created as part of a collaboration with the Boopod network of true crime and paranormal podcasts. In it, we explore a deep, dark tale pulled from the folklore of my native French Canada: La Corriveau, a favourite of Ranconteurs in Quebec's oral storytelling tradition.Contact: theskylarkbell@gmail.comThe Skylark Bell official website - http://www.theskylarkbell.comThe Skylark Bell on Instagram: @theskylarkbellAuthor/Producer: Melissa Oliveri - http://www.melissaoliveri.comJoin Melissa's Patreon for early access to podcast episodes, music downloads, and more: http://www.patreon.com/melissaoliveriAll music by Cannelle: http://www.cannellemusic.comCannelle on Instagram: @cannelle.musicSTORY TRANSCRIPT:Marie-Josephte Corriveau, later dubbed La Corriveau after her execution in 1763, is synonymous with tales of witchcraft and hauntings in French Canadian folklore. Stories of La Corriveau terrorizing visitors to the area of Old Quebec where her body was hanged in a metal cage have been told for centuries, and persist to this day in the minds of many Quebecers.The discovery of her cage in 1851 at a local church cemetery revived people's imaginations and inspired stories that appeared in several print books, both as novels and as part of short story collections at the time. Since then, the character of La Corriveau has appeared in songs, films, theater productions, and artwork such as sculptures and paintings.In the oral storytelling tradition of Quebec La Corriveau has been depicted as a murderous witch who killed up to 7 husbands. In more modern times, starting in the 1960s and 70s, with both the feminist movement and the Quebec Nationalist movement, Marie-Josephte Corriveau became both a symbol of English Oppression and a victim of a Patriarchal Society.THE FACTSBorn in 1733, Marie-Josephte Corriveau had 10 siblings, all of whom died at a young age. She married a man named Charles Bouchard at age 16 and had 3 children before becoming a widow 11 years later. Just over 1 year after Charles' death, she remarried. Her second husband, Etienne Dodier, was found dead in his barn a year and a half later, with extensive injuries to the head. Initially, it was concluded the injuries he sustained were from a horse's hooves, but suspicion and rumours of homicide quickly spread through town due in part to Mr Dodier being at odds with both his father-in-law and his wife.At this point in history, Quebec was known as New France, and had recently fallen under British rule. Upon hearing the rumours, the British Military, who was in charge of maintaining order, opened an investigation into Dodier's death. At the conclusion of this investigation, Marie-Josephte Corriveau and her father Joseph are arrested. They are brought before a military tribunal composed of 12 English officers and presided over by Lieutenant-Colonel Roger Morris. The court finds Joseph Corriveau guilty of murder and condemns him to death, while Marie-Josephte is found guilty of being an accomplice and condemned to 60 lashes and having the letter M branded onto her hand. On the eve of his execution, Marie-Josephte's father allegedly confessed to a priest that he was only an accomplice to the murder, and that his daughter was the actual perpetrator. Marie-Josephte Corriveau was brought back to court, where she confessed to killing her husband with an ax while he was sleeping due to his poor treatment of her and his abusive ways. The court found her guilty of murder and not only condemned her to death, but specified that after her execution her body should “Hang in Chains” – this was the actual verbiage used at the time. This punishment was new to the inhabitants of New France as it did not exist while the area was still under French rule. Joseph Corriveau, Marie-Josephte's father, was retried, found not guilty, and released.Marie-Josephte Corriveau was executed on the grounds where the Quebec Parliament now stands near the Plains of Abraham, the battlefield where the French lost to the British. Her body was placed in a metal cage and put on public exhibit for 5 weeks after which a British commander gave the order for her body to be taken down and buried “wherever they see fit” was the quote.THE LOREMarie-Josephte Corriveau was one of the first people in New France to have their body exhibited in a metal cage. This lit the imaginations of the population which spun legends that have lived on ever since in Quebec's oral storytelling tradition. The trouble with oral storytelling, though, is that it turns into a game of telephone, and over the years La Corriveau's body count went from one husband to seven, and her character went from being a simple murderess to an evil witch with supernatural powers.The discovery of the cage that had contained her body in a local cemetery in 1851 sparked newfound interest in her story and reactivated the legends and lore surrounding it. Authors created fictionalized accounts of a supernatural Corriveau hanging in her cage, terrorizing passersby as she pleaded with them to take her to a witch's den on the neighbouring Island of Orleans. She was also depicted as having a deep knowledge of poisons, and was rumoured to be a direct descendand of Catherine DesHayes – better known as La Voisine – an infamous serial killer in France in the mid-1600s.It was rumoured that La Corriveau had also killed her first husband by pouring molten lead into his ear while he slept. She was said to have been a very jealous woman and found her husband to be too much of a libertine, and so doled out her punishment. She was depicted as a psychopath and said to be without feeling or remorse when, first, her father was prepared to take the fall for the murder of her 2nd husband, and eventually when she herself was found guilty of his murder. As the legend goes, La Corriveau, from the very first night her body was put on exhibit, would leave her cage and follow passersby. Other iterations suggest she would visit a nearby cemetery to feast on freshly buried bodies. It was also rumoured that anyone who passed by her cage and stopped to gawk would then be cursed with either accidents, psychotic breakdowns, or death.Accounts from local inhabitants tell stories of hearing a woman screaming, as if being tortured, along with the terrible, macabre sound of iron creaking, even long after the cage had been taken down and buried.THE CAGEUpon its re-discovery in 1851, La Corriveau's cage was exhibited in Montreal, Quebec City, and even on Broadway in New York City where it was purchased by non-other than PT Barnum. Damaged in a fire at Barnum's American Museum, the cage made its way to the Boston Art Museum via an associate of Barnum's named Moses Kimball. Upon Kimball's death in 1899, the cage was donated to a Museum in Salem, Massachusetts. It wasn't until 2013 that the cage was rediscovered and finally returned home to Quebec when it was acquired by the Quebec Museum of Civilization. It is still stored there today in a controlled environment to prevent its decay, and is occasionally put on display for the public. Perhaps, in those times, La Corriveau, once again put on public exhibit, comes out of hiding to follow an unsuspecting visitor who has lingered and stared just a little too long for her liking...Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/theskylarkbell/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
