Thanks for being you!

. This weekend, Chéri and I watched a documentary about different types of truck drivers in Ivory Coast. I think it was meant to show the gap between the growing wealth of the country (which is the world’s number one cocoa beans exporter), and the hard lives of the drivers that work their fingers to…… Continue reading Thanks for being you!

I’m sorry Ukraine…

. I am sorry, because I’ve just learnt that Canada has betrayed you in the past, and in the most horrible way. This is a part of our history that our back-then leaders tried hard to hide from us people. And hadn’t it be for the families that worked hard to make the ”That never…… Continue reading I’m sorry Ukraine…

June 3rd 1991…

The Earth is angry. You can tell it by its raging pulse making the mountain beat like a bass drum… People, foolish, still crawling around, attracted by the growling ground, wanting the best point of view, oblivious to nature’s up coming fury. The clouds… Growing high and dark in the skies. One last warning meeting…… Continue reading June 3rd 1991…

Just another Tuesday morning… (September 11th FFF)

I was invited (well, not personally, but still…) to join the Fandango’s Friday Flashback! Fandango scrolls back, every Friday, and gives a second chance to a post he had published on the same date the year before. I thought it was a great way to remember some of the stuff I did a while back, and I decided to participate… So…… Continue reading Just another Tuesday morning… (September 11th FFF)

In the name of justice…

I like documentaries… And with all the free time on my hands lately, I have had the chance to treat myself time and again. Today, Chéri and I sat down together to watch ”Who killed Garrett Phillips?” I had tapped the two episodes documentary about the 2016 trial of Oral Nick Hillary. I had never…… Continue reading In the name of justice…

Remembering…

Québec’s motto is ”Je me souviens” (I remember), and it probably has nothing to do with the short sentence written on our license plates, but I strongly believe that the best way to avoid repeating Man’s worst mistake is to remember where we went the wrong way, in the past. Most people would probably agree…… Continue reading Remembering…

New Cinema Festival…

  If you’ve been a regular in The Cove for a while, you might know that I used to make sure to have my Montréal World Film Festival passport every summer, and I spent countless hours watching movies from all around the planet. Unfortunately, the festival is taking a pause this year, and I thought…… Continue reading New Cinema Festival…

Just another Tuesday morning…

After a long night of hard work, I was going through my morning routine. As most people were getting ready to start their day, mine was about to end. I was sleepy, already wearing my pajamas, and I had just fed Poupine, my good old Persian cat. I was getting into bed when I noticed…… Continue reading Just another Tuesday morning…
