Pablo Rodriguez says Marwa Risky has done a lot of damage, quote unquote, to the party since she fired her chief of staff last month without asking his permission. She said the dismissal was a human resources matter. He apparently plans to reinstate the fired employee. Culture Minister Mark Miller said he supports removing the criminal code's religious exemption for hate speech, arguing people should not use sacred texts to justify acts that would otherwise be hate crimes. The Bloc Quebec was pushing an amendment to eliminate the exemption, while conservatives oppose it as an attack on freedom of expression and religion.

Newly elected Mayor Carolyn Braun said the path would be removed until March 31st. Light 1067 sports, NHL last night. The Habs lost to Ottawa 5-2. Toronto beat Florida 4-1.
