Stop Gendercide

Sign the petition on CAUSES.

They say hundreds of thousand millions of girls are killed at or before birth as a result of gender preferences. To establish a comparison the numbers are somewhere between 40 and 70,000,000 total people (including women too!) killed during the second world war.

Don't Lose your Sense of Humour

Women's Rights News
It's not funny!


Replying ''Don't lose your sense of humour'' when you've insulted someone doesn't turn your insult into a joke.

We also need feminism institutions that hold a clear mandate. Either you work for women or you work for lesbians in cooperation with LGTB. Either you work for women's rights or you work for lesbians' rights. If you think you work for both you gotta realise that you've got a double role, and that one role can interfere with the other. In French human rights are called man rights. So in fact man rights include woman rights. French can be so manly and so counterproductive.

In French the overall swear word for FUCK is PUTAIN=whore. It replaced MERDE=SHIT. It's everywhere in movies, literature, music, dayly talk... You name it. And whether the whores are male or female IT'S WRONG. And it's NOT FUNNY.

16 Days Against Gender Violence


So in Montreal where the massacre took place on December 6, 1989, we celebrate 12 days of activism to stop violence against women. Elsewhere in the world it's actually 16 days! But hey! Just don't bother our self-centered boys too much. They're too busy excluding us and playing amongst themselves.

Feminist = Lesbian ?

It is totally wrong to systematically identify as lesbians any and all women who are feminists. 

It is just as WRONG to mix women's rights with lesbians' rights all the time.

My point is :
What happens when a woman is the victim of a gay who thinks he can rightfully hate and harass women economically, in the work place? 
Who can she turn to if women's rescue places benefit from gayism that works arm in arm with male chauvinism?

The Montreal Massacre


December 6, 1989 took place the MONTREAL MASSACRE when a man full of hatred toward women killed 14 women because they were at Engineering School while he, in his male superiority as he thought, did not manage to get admitted.

This is a video of the Montreal Massacre memorial.

BTW male chauvinism is still hatefullly and outrageously man-strong and well organised in Montreal. They are perfectly arranged to block women from getting anywhere past subserviant levels or from developing their companies by wrongfully multiplying hypocritical male-run copies of their otherwise perfect ventures. A male pioneer is a great man, a female pioneer is something you gotta get rid of by giving her the boot and by thoroughly applying male-measures of economic harassment. THIS HAS TO CHANGE, BOYS.

DVD Crimes Without Honour

Here's an extract from the movie distributor:


Stop the bad name of the community by preventing it, says Toronto Christian Indian community Aruna Papp who had to marry against her will to a man she had never met.

People have been committing so-called honour crimes since time immemorial. While many of us believed these acts were a thing of the past, reality has bluntly taught us otherwise. Around the world, people are dying by the thousands in the name of honour. The Shafia murders were Canada's wake-up call. Sweden was shocked by the slaying of Fadima by her own father. Honour killings are happening in England, Germany, the Netherlands, France, Sweden, Canada... in ever increasing numbers.

In Crimes Without Honour, the filmmaker explores several lines of enquiry through the stories of Aruna Papp, a Christian from India living in Canada; Necla Kelek, a Turkish woman living in Germany; Sara, a Kurd who has settled in Sweden; and Arkan, a young Kurd who was raised "like a Swede."

Aruna, Necla, Sara and Arkan have all had the courage to stand up against their communities' criminal traditions and denounce these hateful crimes, even at the risk of ostracism.

The DVD contains both English and French language documentary films directed by Raymonde Provencher.

Online Petition About Quebec so-called Justice: Please sign and Invite your friends

The following texte was copied from the Petition page :


In Québec, criminals seem to benefit more from rights and help than do their victims!! Isn't it about time that this changes!! I have recently became friends with women on Facebook who have inspired me to create this cause …they are presently taking steps to have certain Quebec laws modified in order to offer better protection to the victims, especially children victim of aggression and their families. All of Quebec is aware of the story of Guy Turcotte, the ex-cardiologist who was judged not criminally responsible for the slaying of his two young children, stabbing them 46 times, on February 20th, 2009 in Piedmont. Since September, he has been granted unsupervised outings, between 8 and 16 hours per day and is permitted to stay out overnight when lodged by family members. This coming December, the ex-cardiologist may even find himself completely free… the Crown prosecutor has appealed the verdict and asked that Turcotte be retried, arguing that the ex-cardiologist can not be judged 'not criminally responsible' for the simple reason that he voluntarily intoxicated himself before committing his crime. The Appeals Court must decide whether or not a new trial is necessary in early 2013. It is time for us, as a moral society to stand together and have our voices heard. Offer support to these women who are fighting to have the laws of our so-called "Justice System" modified in order to give justice to the victims and stop protecting the criminals. Please sign this petition saying that we want change in our penal system. Yes, we want a retrial for Guy Turcotte…we want justice for these two poor children, Anne-Sophie(3yrs) and Olivier(5yrs), who will never have the chance to grow.

NFB DVD : In Pieces

The National Film Board of Montreal has recently released a very moving, new, bilingual DVD of feminist artist Paule Baillargeon.

Intimate and rebellious, the movie director tells it like it was for women in Quebec. With the help of her own drawings, sketches, movie extracts and new images she pulls out moments of her life, from a very young age in her natal Abitibi till now at 64.

A Very Personal Film
With music and images, her voice recalls the Montreal Massacre,  Pierre Elliott-Trudeau, blindfolds, the Quebec Quiet Revolution which certainly never was anything but bloody when it comes to women, her dog, her mother, her father, women who have nothing and that go crazy and men who have everything and go idiot, her home region of Abitibi which is so far north and where she had no books or coloring pencils of her own, the women's rebellion, her movies, the invisible women of today who look like walking gaskets, slaving women who used to work like dogs but were said to be unworking mothers, abandonment, postfeminism with perhaps no knowledge of valium-taking grand-mothers, her mother who wore slacks and who was dying from lack of love...

EXTRACTS
I'm nothing now.
A surprise desire for happiness.
... because it's the nightmare of my life.
Apparently I have everything a girl could want, and more.
But acting on my wishes is not for me.
... someone who murders me while I'm not paying attention.  
Anasthasie is me! 
War words become love words in the man's mouth.
 
Know Your Women's History
It's certainly more than worth watching and listening to for if women don't know their history, they are bound to repeat the same mistakes and re-enslave themselves with post-feministic theories and old forgotten blindfolds.
Certainly the City of Montreal won't be of any help - in a recent year it instituted the Women's History Month which lasted 15 days since it was announced 15 days late, and it never came back.

In Pieces can be both purchased in DVD format or downloaded.


Filmographie de Paule Baillargeon (complete list of her movies)

Searching, Searching, Searching but can't find anything either at City of Montreal (are they too busy with Commission Charbonneau) or at Québec government which just changed and I guess this is a brand new thing compared to errors made by the so-called liberals.

I guess nobody else wanted this date: 1 month after 9/11, 11 years thereafter. But a good date indeed precisely for that matter. When any kind of war happens, half the victims are possibly women but when peace reigns then women find themselves too often under or behind glass of some kind.

So I just hope that this will perhaps last longer than the incredible ANNUAL MONTREAL WOMEN'S MONTH which happened only once and started 2 weeks late.

But they're not phallocrats!...

Calypso Rose = A Role Model

Calypso Rose in concert at Montreal's
Festival International Nuits d'Afrique
July 2012
Photo Credit: Jacqueline Mallette
Calypso Rose is the great grand daughter of slaves taken by force away from their African country to serve cheap and abusive masters.

Calypso Rose didn't speak until she was 13 years of age.

In her career Calypso Rose had to fight male chauvinists who tried to convince her that calypso was a man thing.

Calypso Rose fought the battle and won.

Calypso Rose is 72 years old, she entertained brilliantly and energetically her Montreal public at Festival International Nuits d'Afrique on Friday. Her show lasted one and a half hours. And that is without having to go or be taken to the washroom or drinking water or even sitting down.

Calypso Rose is a winner. Not to mention the 800 songs she has composed and her 50 years in show business.

Calypso Rose can teach anyone a thing or two about surviving male chauvinists, female phobia and senior push-over practices.

I simply admire Calypso Rose. She is an inspirational role model for women everywhere.

Calypso Rose, we love you.

150th ANNIVERSARY OF THE CHÂTEAU RAMEZAY SOCIETY

The Montréal château originally built and owned by Claude de Ramezay would have given way to an autoroute and a two-story parking. But thanks to the Antiquarian and Numismatic Society of Montréal (ANSM) / Société d’archéologie et de numismatique de Montréal, the site - and especially building - was saved from destruction.

To this day, the ANSM continues to ensure the conservation, interpretation and dissemination of our heritage through exhibitions, activities and educational programs presented at Château Ramezay. The 150th anniversary of the Society is an opportunity to highlight the work accomplished by past Montrealers and to pay tribute to all those who have been committed to our institution.

Starting with a recent and successful wine tasting fundraiser the Museum announces lots of events this summer. 

UPCOMING EVENTS...
. Free outdoor exhibitions
. Seminar Justice, Order and Vengeance in the XVIIIth Century
. Open House Weekend
. Achievement Awards
. Exhibition and Sale of Françoise Pascals' Art
. The Antiquarian and Numismatic Society of Montréal's 150th Anniversary Ball

Details and more information : www.chateauramezay.qc.ca under the tab “150th anniversary”.

The Château Ramezay – Historic Site and Museum of Montréal is a private, non-profit organization whose mission is to promote and ensure access to a collection devoted to the history of Montréal and Québec. The Château is the first building to have been classified a historic monument and the oldest private history museum in Québec.

Centaur Theatre Company presents INTIMATE APPAREL

By Lynn Nottage
Directed by Micheline Chevrier
March 27 - April 29, 2012

Starring ELOI ARCHAMBAUDOIN, QUINCY ARMORER, TAMARA BROWN, LUCINDA DAVIS, RANEE LEE and PATRICIA SUMMERSETT

Centaur’s production of Intimate Apparel celebrates the resilience and passion of the female spirit.

Centaur Theatre is proud to present Intimate Apparel by Pulitzer Prizewinning playwright Lynn Nottage. First staged in Baltimore, Maryland in 2003, this play, whose various incarnations have earned a bevy of awards, including the New York Drama Critics Circle Award, addresses and transcends race, religion, sexuality, class and time.

“Intimate Apparel may be set in 1905 New York but the emotions it evokes are quite contemporary. Through its characters, this beautiful, rich and powerful play directed by Micheline Chevrier uncovers layers of meaning that will resonate with audiences who will find their own personal connections to the underlying messages,” says Centaur’s Artistic and Executive Director, Roy Surette.

Intimate Apparel tells the story of Esther, a 35-year old African American seamstress who produces elegant lingerie for a clientele whose outward diversity - from socialites to ladies of the night - conceals an underlying universality. Despite the disappointments that relationships have brought to the lives of the various characters, Esther continues to covet a secret dream and yearns for the fulfilment she imagines love and marriage will bring.

“Occasionally, the pairing of actor and role seems so perfect that casting is inevitable. In this case, Lucinda Davis in the role of Esther and Quincy Armorer as George were behind the initial impulse for producing Intimate Apparel,” adds Surette. The Centaur production’s stellar cast also includes the inimitable Ranee Lee, Patricia Summersett, Eloi ArchamBaudoin, and Tamara Brown.

Their seamless performances are set against a ragtime soundtrack by Sound Designer Peter Cerone, supported by the sensual fabrics (an integral part of the weft and warp of this timeless tale) and period costumes by designer Susana Vera, artfully punctuated by lighting created by Martin Sirois and framed by a set designed by Pierre-Étienne Locas which transports audiences to Lower Manhattan. Rounding out the team of professionals bringing this lyrical production to life are Assistant Director Jen Cressey, Production Dramaturge Caitlin Murphy, Stage Manager Kira Maros, and Assistant Stage Manager Kirsten ‘Birdie’ Gregor.

Thursday Evening Chat-UpJoin Susana Vera for a ‘behind the seams’ look at the stunning period costumes and sumptuous lace-trimmed corsets she created for Intimate Apparel. Thursday April 19, 2012 at 7PM.

Tuesday, March 27 – Sunday, April 29, 2012
Previews: Tuesday March 27 and Wednesday March 28, 2012 - 8:00PM
Opening Night: Thursday March 28, 2012 - 8:00PM

MOVIE DVD - Claude Lelouch - What Love May Bring


Movie Director and Producer Claude Lelouch who is currently distributing Geoffry Enthoven's HASTA LAVISTA - COME AS YOU ARE never stops making wonderful love stories. The most recent, entitled in French CES AMOURS-LÀ - in English What Love May Bring is actually a recap of his 50 years of translating love stories into movies. Dedicated to his seven children this film brings back wonderful memories as well as horrible WWII war scenes from 1939-45. But at the end of the day it's a single kiss that initiated the spark. The sound is also a mix of bombs and music. Quite the movie about a woman who sets love as her top priority even though she might end up getting lynched for it! Don't miss this oportunity - a true life movie.

March 8 - Rod & Rod Sticking Together Like Glue

Montreal once instituted a Women's History Month - it lasted 15 days and it never came back. Yep! It's something to be proud of, isn't it? Top it off with the Montreal Massacre, the 2/3 salary stats and the ever so poor representation of women in above average status and paying jobs or in boards of directors and you've got quite a good picture of our situation here.

That's about the way it goes for women around here. It's boys with boys among boys in the buoyancy spirit of  and for each other out. The other sex can just go to hell. Who gives a damn? Anyone?

And yeah, a woman's mouth does have something that can drive a man crazy : she can talk!


Celebrate MARCH 8 : International Women's Day. We need it!

DVD - Black Hands - Trial of the Arsonist Slave

NOW on DVD - the captivating story of Montreal's Female Black Slave under the French Regime. In those days neither blacks nor women were considered as people. Nowadays with regards to women (I can't speak for black people) I know for a fact that things have not necessarily changed in all men's minds. And it's only been getting worse in the past few years.

Black Hands - Trial of the Arsonist Slave . Documentary Movie

After being viewed around the world at prestigious film festivals (Montréal, New York, Chicago, Paris, Ouagadougou, Rouyn-Noranda, Toronto, etc.) and taking home the Dikola Award for Best Documentary at the International PanAfrican Film Festival in Cannes, this documentary is now in stores and on iTunes.

Marie-Joseph-Angelique, 29, is beautiful, playful, rebellious and very outspoken against her slave status. In 1734, a major fire destroys a third of Montréal. Angelique is arrested as the main suspect of this crime. An epic trial follows where a long line of witnesses, of all social status, testifies. Her outspoken personality has turned many against her and the slavery system of the time had already condemned her. And so, she is found guilty solely based on rumors and without actual proof. She is tortured, hung and burned to ashes, which were scatted near Place d’Youville.
This passionate story is told through interviews with historians and theatre re-enactments filmed in the same style as Dogville by Lars Von Trier. Black Hands reveals once and for all who was the true perpetrator of the great fire of Montreal.

The Director
Tetchena Bellange graduated with a Degree in Cinema from the University of Montreal. In 2010, she directed the documentary “Doctors Without Residencies” produced by the National Film Board of Canada, which explores the mechanism that prevents several foreign-trained doctors from practicing medicine in Quebec, Canada. This film was #1 on the NFB’s website for several weeks. Tetchena has previously written and directed short films that toured several festivals, including “Echos” (with Janine Sutto and Richard Robitaille, nominated for Best Film at the Niagara Film Festival). Passionate about the art of storytelling, Tetchena is also an accomplished actress. She has acted in several movies and TV series including: “The Day After Tomorrow”, “A Cargo to Africa” and “Rumors”. She recently nabbed a role in the feature film “On The Road”, opposite Oscar nominee Terrence Howard, and also 8 episodes on «30 Vies», where she played a distraught mother.
