I've been representing protesters pro bono since Trump 1.0. In that time, I've represented protesters against the Muslim ban, ICE, trans bans, DEI bans, genocide in Occupied Palestine, police brutality, and more. Want to know why more people don't protest? Here's why.

Pierre Céré, ancien candidat à la chefferie du PQ, sur Facebook. Est-ce que PSPP réalise quels démons il est en train de réveiller? C'est de l'insouciance ou c'est volontaire? Et est-ce que ça change quelque chose?
Le PQ et les néonazis : une histoire en quatre temps. Il est extrêmement grave qu’on puisse établir un rapprochement entre des militants néonazis et le Parti québécois. La responsabilité en revient à PSPP et aux membres du parti qui gardent le silence.
