Some say they are angry at Parti Québécois leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon’s obstinate refusal to take an oath to King Charles III. afford to.

“It must be good in Quebec,” he commented wryly if he remained fixated on this affair! In their opinion, the PSPP should submit to the new monarch and swear allegiance to him, because that’s how it works. Point.

taboo

Unbelievable that there is some kind of taboo on any debate about our institutions. This crippling reflex dates back to after the 1995 referendum.

From that moment on, the Federalists, having failed to repair the 1982 coup de force of bourgeoisification of the Constitution, imposed any discussion on these issues. Most became “Canadians” and accepted the Dominion as it was.

After that it was the Charest years, then Couillard. It was believed that with the CAQ and its 2015 New Project for Quebec Nationalists, the taboo would finally be lifted. That the idea of ​​renewed federalism would revive.

Keepers of the famous taboo criticize the PQ leader for addressing the issue at this time. What about inflation, labor shortages? they mumble.

However, debating institutions does not mean neglecting everyday problems. Also, when it comes to Eid, there’s a hurry: the ceremony for the PSPP party is scheduled for Friday!

serious gesture

Also, taking an oath is not trivial. It’s a celebratory gesture. Furthermore, not respecting it is perjury.

But, “knowing that most MPs” who take the famous oath “don’t believe in it for a second,” this staging is nothing but dishonest to one’s own conscience, dishonest to vis-à-vis the people of Québec, but also dishonest to Charles III himself”, rightly wrote the jurist Maxime Laporte recently on our website.

The taboo surrounding constitutional issues means anyone who raises them risks being accused of wasting their “time” on secondary issues. But in addition it has the effect of obscuring the monarchist character of our political system. An aspect that is nevertheless rejected by a clear majority of Quebecers.

This same taboo gives the impression that evolution is no longer possible. That we are doomed to what exists.

To unlock this type of situation: it is precisely the virtue of the gesture that the leader of the PQ and his deputies want to portray.

It is inconceivable that refusing to take an oath to a foreign monarch would result in the disqualification or even the expulsion of duly elected MPs.

The government, National Assembly and opposition parties must find a way to finally develop parliamentary law in such a way that it reflects the contemporary conception of the people’s shaping of the legitimacy of elected officials.

In addition, the Léger poll, commissioned by the IRAI research institute, estimates that 76% of Quebecers believe that elected officials should only take an oath of loyalty to the people of Quebec. Also, 65% of them believe elected officials who have refused to take the royal oath should be able to sit normally.

The Segovia Provincial Court has sentenced a man to seven and a half years in prison for trying to kill a judge from Santa María la Real de Nieva (Segovia, 1,000 inhabitants) with a screwdriver. The parties have come to an agreement and the author, diagnosed with bipolar disorder, accepts the penalty for attempted crime and attempts against authority. The accused, a farmer from a nearby town, had received an unfavorable sentence the day before and went to court in December 2020, where he repeatedly stabbed judge María Sonsoles Sanchidrián Velayos, who spent nine days in a hospital.

The Segovian, with the initials ARS, has admitted what happened and must comply with a restraining order one kilometer away from the woman for eight and a half years, five and a half years of supervised release if he leaves prison and compensate the victim 94,170 euros: 40,000 for moral damage, 30,000 for the consequences and 24,170 for the physical damage caused. The judge’s defense had asked for 15 years in prison and the prosecution 12, although the agreement that was reached removes the total time the man, who has been in provisional custody since the attack, has to spend seven and a half years behind bars.

More information

The attack on the authority occurred around 2 p.m. on December 1, 2020, when the attacker addressed the judge who was in her vehicle, which was snowing at the door of Santa María la Real de Es, 30 kilometers from the city of Segovia removed, was parked. There they talked for a few moments after he asked her if she was Sonsoles Velayos, who the previous day had sentenced him to pay around 1,000 euros in legal costs for a case initiated by this person in relation to a piece of land used for growing fruit and vegetables had , which ended in his against.

The man attacked her with the screwdriver and stuck it in her eye and chest before the victim managed to escape and took refuge in the judicial offices after being pursued by ARS and hospital.

Sanchidrián’s lawyer Aquilino Conde considered the parties’ agreement after the hearing to be “relatively prudent and good for everyone”. “She wasn’t for the job being hateful and wanted to rebuild her life and that’s why this solution was there,” stressed the attorney, adding that the defendant had been diagnosed with a personality disorder but apparently hadn’t after appropriate treatment and that this could lead to the offense for which he was convicted.

The Kremlin said Tuesday that the probe into the blasts that ripped through the Nord Stream gas pipelines was “tailored” to blame Russia.

Explosions in early September spurted natural gas from pipelines on the bottom of the Baltic Sea, causing a major environmental disaster that further exacerbated geopolitical tensions over energy supplies.

“From statements we hear from Germany, France and Denmark, this investigation is a priori tailored to blame Russia. That’s absurd,” said Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.

Moscow has accused Western countries of being behind the explosions in the pipelines being built to carry Russian gas to Germany, while Ukraine has blamed Russia.

“Russia would not blow up its own pipeline,” Peskov said.

“We can only express our regret that this entire investigation is taking place in a very, very closed framework … without the involvement of the Russian side, which co-owns this pipeline,” he added.

Moscow previously expressed “confusion” over its exclusion from an inquiry into the incident and launched its own probe.

“We have no way of conducting our own investigations on the ground,” Peskov said Tuesday, but investigators from the Russian intelligence services are “doing their job.”

Denmark said last week that its investigation, which it is conducting with Sweden and Germany, is making “good progress”.

Swedish authorities had previously said an inspection of the blast site had increased suspicions of sabotage.

At least 50 meters of the Nord Stream 1 pipeline has been destroyed or buried under the seabed, images from the Swedish newspaper Expressen showed on Tuesday.

The pipelines have been at the center of geopolitical tensions as Russia cut off gas supplies to Europe in alleged retaliation to Western sanctions over Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

Although the pipelines were not operating at the time of the blast, they were still filled with natural gas, or methane, which is a potent greenhouse gas.

Former Brazilian minister Tarcisio de Freitas, Bolsonarist candidate for governor of Sao Paulo, was forced to interrupt a visit to a favela Monday because of a shooting and an investigation has been launched to determine whether he was the target of the shooting or not Not. “I think it was intimidating to send a clear message from organized crime: They are not welcome here,” said far-right President Jair Bolsonaro’s former infrastructure minister at a news conference. He said he heard gunshots while visiting a university pole social project in Paraisopolis, one of the most densely populated favelas in Sao Paulo, home to more than 100,000 residents.

“No hypothesis excluded”

Tarcisio De Freitas explained that his security team reported to him the presence of motorcyclists who “prowled around the building, took pictures and later returned with weapons”. “No hypothesis has been ruled out,” said Sao Paulo State Security Secretary Joao Camilo Pires, adding that the shooting took place “50 or 100 meters” from where the candidate and his team were found. Footage released in Brazilian media shows Tarcisio de Freitas and his team crouching inside a building to shelter from fire. They were later evacuated and no one was injured. However, a 27-year-old suspect was killed after an exchange of gunfire with police.

“Perhaps the attackers were reacting to the heavy police presence (due to the candidate’s visit) or it was intimidation, we are investigating the issue,” assured Joao Camilo Pires. President Bolsonaro responded immediately from his residence at Alvorada Palace in Brasilia. “We only have preliminary information, I don’t want to speculate. But what happened, whether (an attack) against him (Tarcisio de Freitas) or not, shows that we need to be more concerned about security issues,” the head of state said. Tarcisio de Freitas, who wants to govern Brazil’s richest and most populous state, is up against left-wing candidate Fernando Haddad of Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva’s Labor Party (PT), opponent of Jair Bolsonaro for the presidential election, in the second ballot on October 30.

Contrary to forecasts, the former minister prevailed in the first round of voting on October 2nd. The election campaign is conducted under high tension, the most important presidential candidates always wear bulletproof vests during their public appearances. Four years ago, Jair Bolsonaro was the victim of a knife attack in the middle of a crowd during the 2018 presidential campaign.

“I don’t get hot or cold. I too was raped and saw my parents die before me”. French broadcaster Europe1 reports some chilling excerpts from the confession of Dhabia B., the 24-year-old homeless man arrested in Paris for the brutal murder of the 12-year-old.

Lola Daviet’s death can only be caused by the madness of a 24-year-old woman. Yesterday, October 17, it emerged that the 12-year-old was tortured, raped and locked in a suitcase left in the internal cohort of the gated community where she lived in a Paris suburb.

Dhabia’s shocking confession

Today, France is further shocked by the chilling confession – reported on radio station Europe1’s website – by Dhabia B., the Algerian homeless woman who admitted to torturing and raping her victim before choking to death and then slitting her throat. The woman faces charges of murder, sexual violence, torture and barbarism and is currently in prison.

There are still many gray areas surrounding the investigations of the criminal brigade of the Parisian criminal police. But one thing is certain: last Friday, little Lola’s ordeal ended. It happened somewhere in the 19th arrondissement of Paris between 3.17pm, when Lola was last caught by CCTV cameras in the atrium of her building with Dhabia B., and 4.48pm now, when the latter arrives traveling alone, in possession of two suitcases and a suitcase. The 12-year-old is found in that box in the evening, with her feet bound and her face taped, two large cuts on her neck and two numbers in red ink on the soles of her feet: the ‘0’ on the right foot, the ‘1’ on the left.

Sexual violence against four girls in a nightclub: the owner of the club arrested

Lola, raped and tortured

So a gap of ninety-one minutes. What happened in that hour and a half? The court record currently focuses only on the testimonies of the prime suspect. Europe1 writes that Dhabia’s confession took place without cameras. During the fourth preliminary hearing, the 24-year-old admitted to taking Lola to her sister’s apartment, where she occasionally stays. He then explains that he asked Lola to take a shower. At that time he sexually abused the girl. He said he “put his hands on the girl’s face”, probably just as Lola was dying of suffocation.

In front of investigators, visibly stunned, he went on to claim he had a coffee and then listened to music before repeatedly stabbing the girl’s body with scissors, almost to the point where she detached her head from the suitcase. A shocking statement that would have left the 24-year-old stunned even at the photos of Lola’s body. “It’s neither hot nor cold. I too was raped and I saw my parents die before my eyes,” she said in front of investigators.

The alleged motive for the Paris crime

As for the motive for the crime, investigators from the Anti-Crime Team said they were fascinated by what, as the hours pass, begins to take the form of a gruesome crime consumed for absolutely pointless reasons: a trivial altercation with the mother of the victim. According to the television station BfmTv, the suspect said so herself. The homeless man actually explained that she was sheltered by her sister (among those arrested) in the building where Lola and her family lived. The teenager’s mother, who is the caretaker of the building with her husband, would have refused the woman an access pass to the property. One track, however, not confirmed.

The suspect was illegally on French territory

“The suspect has no previous convictions as a perpetrator, only as a victim of domestic violence in 2018,” a source close to the investigation told Le Figaro. Dhabia B. came to France legally in 2016 with a student residence permit. After being arrested by police at an airport on August 21, 2022, she was given an OQTF with a 30-day voluntary repatriation period. On this occasion, the lack of a residence permit was reported, according to a source close to the investigation.

Secretary of State José Paulino da Silva, representing Interior Minister Eugénio Laborinho, is leading the national team at the 90th session of the General Assembly of the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol), which meets until next Friday in the capital New Delhi of India, reveals here the Jornal de Angola Online .

The forum, based in Vienna, Austria, will also run until October 21, and the Angolan state plans to report here on the implementation of the above-mentioned convention and its additional protocols, the newspaper said.

Greater number of people in primary care

In September, the number of refugees receiving basic care peaked. With 89,520 people, it was already significantly more than in the refugee crisis years of 2016 and 2017, when almost 80,000 people were served, according to the Ministry of Interior’s asylum statistics.

Of the people seen in primary care at the beginning of September, 82,965 were served by the federal states. According to the Basic Services Database, 6,550 were in the care of the federal government.

The main countries of origin were Ukraine (57,610), Syria (12,561) and Afghanistan (5,321), followed by Iraq (2,623), Somalia (2,076) and Pakistan (1,698). The number of Indian citizens is comparatively small, 662, and the number of arrests has recently increased sharply. This suggests that many of them traveled to other countries.

In the long-term course, since 2008, in addition to this year, the years 2016 and 2017 stand out. From 2008 to 2015, the level of people receiving basic care was between 18,000 and 32,000. And even after 2017, the curve dropped again (2020: 30,878, 2021: 26,659, 2022: 30,221).
