Links a'plenty
Oct. 29th, 2015 12:23 pmReally interesting article on the CBC website about the Surete de Quebec (sorry, I can't remember how to do accents on the laptop keyboard) Not Just Aboriginal Women Should be Scared of Quebec's Provincial Police. I don't know anything about the SQ (there, I managed to avoid using the accents altogether), beyond the fact that there's been a scandal in recent weeks regarding its officers' behaviour towards First Nations women in the community of Val d'Or. F-listers who live or have lived in Quebec, would you agree with Neil MacDonald's take on the organization?

selenak links to Daniel Craig's hilarious take on when an interviewer calls Monica Bellucci an older woman. The rest of the interview wasn't that interesting, so I'm just linking to Selena's copy-paste of the relevant question and answer, although she does link to the whole interview. Also, interesting stuff about Bond movies in general in Selena's comments section.
Gakked from...someone on my f-list/dwircle, interesting articles on how the released Clinton emails show that George W. Bush and Tony Blair were planning the invasion of Iraq a year before it took place, at a time when Blair for one was still publicly insisting that he was still looking for a diplomatic solution. The article I was first linked to is here and the original Daily Mail article is here.
Gakked fromancarett, have a CBC News interview with then-Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, filmed during the October Crisis of 1970.
And gakked fromselenak, have a Salon article on Henry Kissinger, dangerous fraud. Interesting stuff. I know very little about Kissinger, however.
Finally, from the Washington Post, and gakked from...someone, People are Getting Shot by Toddlers on a Weekly Basis this Year.
