Who benefits from electronic billing?
It is always strange to see a growing number of companies offer their customers to focus on electronic invoices instead of paper bills, claiming they want to be greener.
In fact, going green does not necessarily help the environment, because people who decide to choose for electronic invoicing, will likely print their invoices to include them in their expense accounts, or make their tax returns. So where is the economy of paper?
This is just another great way for companies to make money, since many companies that will send paper bills will charge something like $ 2 a month, so I have been told by friends, to meet the costs mailing bills. But is that really cost $ 2 to produce and send an invoice by mail?

À qui profite les facturations électroniques?
Ça me fait toujours bizarre de voir un nombre grandissant de compagnies, proposer à leurs clients de privilégier les factures électroniques au lieu des factures de papier, prétextant un virage vert. En fait, ce virage vert n’aide pas nécessairement l’environnement, puisque les gens qui décideront d’opter la facturation électronique, imprimeront vraisemblablement leur factures...

trisbee: these numbers are ridiculous. 1 out of 4 women are raped in their life time. My best friend is a rape victim and if anyone said “She was probably looking for it” they would get a gif number 3. We all come from a woman, how dare you violate our most precious resource. How

The SPCA of Quebec city gives shelter to 11 000...
Each year about 11,000 pets find shelter in the locals of the SPCA of Quebec city. Of that number, about half of the pets are found weeks around the 1st of July (Canada day), a day that is considered in the province of Quebec as the national day of moving, because many people are moving into their new appartments, and their new landlords forbids them to have pets. According to the Quebec city...

Félicitations vous avez gagné un prix...Vraiment?
Un de mes amis a recu un SMS lui disant qu’il avait gagné un prix chez WalMart et que pour réclamer son prix, il devait aller visiter un site web, je lui ai dit que c’était probablement une arnaque surtout qu’il n’a jamais rempli de bulletin de participation. Ça me rappelle la fois où j’avais reçu un SMS me disant que j’avais gagné une croisière et que pour...

Congradulations you won a prize...Really?
A friend of mine received a SMS telling him that he had won a prize at a contest, and to claim his prize he has to visit a website. I told him that it was most likely a scam considering that he never filled a contest form. Reminds me of the time I had received a SMS telling me that I had won a cruise and to claim the prize I have to call a number. I had never filled a contest form, so how can I...

Québec Solidaire et son engouement pour la censure →
Il y a encore des gens pour douter que Québec Solidaire soit un parti à tendance totalitaire dont la démocratie n’a d’importance que si elle va dans son sens. Pourtant, en se frottant à la culture et aux pratiques de ce parti d’extrême-gauche, on découvre tôt ou tard que la censure contre tout point de vue ou propos critique, satirique ou dissident, y est un réflexe tout à fait naturel et...
