This amusing GIF *could* have been quite useful for mocking any number of the many #PoliticalGaffes of former #Montreal mayoress #ValériePlante aka l'homme de la shituation.
Ce GIF amusant aurait pu être très utile pour se moquer des nombreuses gaffes de l'ancienne mairesse #ValPlante. 🤣
#PolMTL
Les mots et les actions de #ValériePlante ont certainement été INacceptables, et ils n'étaient pas "minimale" en comparison avec ceux de Mme. Martinez. Oui Mme. Martinez est au pouvoir en ce moment, et c'est a elle de subir des conséquences, mais #ValPlante n'est pas a l'abri de critique.
#PolMTL
Très sérieusement, ça aurait été quoi pour #ValériePlante de juste #êtrehonnête, au lieu de prendre les #journalistes pour des colons?

Oups!
Je viens tout juste de noter que j'ai écrit:
"Mais des d'objections sémantiques peuvent être TELLEMENT de fun!"
au lieu de:
Mais des #objectionssémantiques peuvent être TELLEMENT de fun!
Je ne suis pas comme François Limoges, #ValPlante et #ProjetMontréal.
Je corrige mes erreurs. . .
#EnsembleMontréal ’s campaign slogan was: “Listen and Act”.
The listening part will be particularly important.
#ProjetMontréal ’s #ToneDeafness is probably the main cause of its defeat.
Yes, #ValPlante & other #ProjetMTL politicians were NOT good listeners.

Effectivement. . .
Je suis convaincu que si Ensemble Montréal a choisi presque n'import quel candidat pour la mairie de Montréal que Denis Coderre en 2021, c'est fort probable que "l'homme de la situation" n'aurait pas eu un deuxième mandat comme mairesse.
#ValériePlante #ValPlante #PolMTL #CMMTL
Est-ce que l’administration sortante de Projet Montréal a affirmé léguer un SPVM "deséquilibré"?

"Le chef de #TransitionMontréal, #CraigSauvé, a recueilli 8,54% à la mairie de #Montréal. Les membres de #ProjetMontréal avec qui #LeDevoir s’est entretenu sont d’avis que son rôle a été plutôt marginal dans la défaite de #LucRabouin."
Tout à fait d'accord, ç'a été plutôt le rôle de #ValPlante. 😇
The arrival of #TransitionMontréal may not be the *only* interesting thing about this municipal election, but TM is certainly "a breath of fresh air" for "left-leaning" #Montreal citizens who are DIS-illusioned with #ValPlante & #ProjetMontréal.

BTW back when #ProjetMontreal was in opposition prior to 2017, they were inclined to listen to me & criticize the governing party, not to mention the #SPVM.
But #ValPlante & PM foolishly chose to ignore me starting in mid-2017 & things went downhill.

I'm not disputing that.
I'm pointing out that "l'homme de la situation", aka #ValPlante who was #Montreal mayor from November 2017 until November 1st 2025, while rents steadily increased, is or was a #landlord herself.
#ValériePlante #ConflictOfIinterest? #PolMTL #MTLpoli #CMMTL #electionMTL
I agree.
I've been "auditing" the intersection of de Maisonneuve & Grand Boul. in #NDG for some years now.
Peter McQueen & Gracia Kasoki Katahwa, to say nothing of #ValPlante & #ProjetMontreal, can't even paint a #ZebraStripeCrosswalk.

"Some people are living on the streets, and they weren’t before July 1. It’s getting critical and there’s sadly no leadership on the file of homelessness."
Sadly, #homelessness is not the only file there's no #leadership on from #ValPlante & #ProjetMontreal.

"With only days to go before the vote, Rabouin — who once stated his biggest challenge was getting voters to know him..."
I repeatedly asked #ValPlante to step-down as mayor after the new leader of #ProjetMontreal was elected so #Montréalers could get to know them.
She repeatedly refused to do so.
How do you say "champagne socialist" in French?

1. Broken Promises and Fiscal Mismanagement Plante's early tenure was marred by a high-profile reversal on taxes, eroding public trust. Her 2017 campaign pledged no tax hikes beyond inflation (around 2.1%), but her first budget delivered a 3.3% increase, including a sharp rise in water taxes to address a $358 million deficit inherited from the previous administration. Critics, including opposition leader Aref Salem, accused her of misleading voters and prioritizing ideology over transparency.
2. Urban Mobility and "War on Cars" Backlash Plante's push for a "bike-friendly" city—adding over 1,000 km of paths and pedestrian zones—was hailed by environmentalists but lambasted as an "anti-car" crusade that ignored commuters and businesses. Projects like the controversial closure of Camilien-Houde Way on Mount Royal (despite a 2019 public consultation recommending against it) cost nearly $100 million and sparked outrage for prioritizing ideology over accessibility.
3. Homelessness, Public Safety, and Social Services Failures Under Plante, visible homelessness surged post-COVID, with encampments, garbage-strewn streets, and opioid crises overwhelming neighborhoods. Critics pointed to inadequate responses, including poor snow removal (icy sidewalks in 2017–2018) and a spike in antisemitic incidents (e.g., firebombings of synagogues like Beth Tikvah in 2024, amid unchecked protests blocking streets).
4. Scandals and Ethical Lapses Plante's administration was rocked by ethical controversies, amplifying perceptions of entitlement. Dominique Ollivier, her executive committee president, resigned in 2023 after spending $18,000+ in public funds on lavish meals and wine at the Office de consultation publique de Montréal—echoing Plante's own criticized Vienna wine-tasting trip. Plante restricted social media comments in 2024 to curb abuse but faced accusations of stifling dissent, with opposition calling it "unethical" and anti-democratic.
Yes, soon to be former #Montréal mayor #ValériePlante "didn’t do enough" for the #homeless & not only "spent too much on cops", but condoned #SPVM #PoliceViolence & other #AbuseOfPower.
Anyone who believes #ValPlante didn't embarrass #Montrealers is UNinformed or delusional.

"As election day approaches & #ProjetMontreal trails in the polls, a bizarre pressure campaign is underway in which anyone who criticizes #ProjetMTL is blamed for helping Ensemble win."
LOL! #ValPlante & other PM politicians only have themselves to blame.

You may not have got the impression that Luc Rabouin is #authoritarian as an individual, but I suggest you take a closer look at #ProjetMontreal as a party. . .
#ValPlante & other @projetmontreal.org politicians have repeatedly behaved in an authoritarian manner.
#LucRabouin is complicit.

Pardon my #Franglais mais. . .
No justice, no peace, #ValPlante est complice

J'espère que Luc Rabouin sera moins "flamboyant" que la "rockstar" #ValPlante. . . 🤣
Mais comment est-ce que Luc peut prétendre qu'il sera un assez bon gestionnaire pour s’attaquer aux crises qui frappent #Montréal quand #ProjetMontréal était INcapable?

Has Projet Montréal spent ANY time denouncing the #ActualViolence committed by #SPVM cops on its watch?
I repeatedly asked #ValPlante & #ProjetMontreal to tell the SPVM to STOP intimidating photographers etc., but PM refused.

"I hope that I was able to show that a woman can be herself: laugh, smile, be wise … having a sense of duty, doing her job, while being herself." - Valérie Plante

For a "left wing activist" #LucRabouin, to say nothing of #ValPlante & the rest of #ProjetMontréal politicians, didn't do much to address #homelessness & poverty etc., & they were ALL only too happy to turn a blind-eye to & #SPVM #PoliceBrutality.
They're #ChampagneSocialists & I'm being polite...
