Talk:Chantal Hébert

message: I recently removed :Category:Quebec journalists from the article.  Hébert was born in Ottawa, and has spent her life and career between Toronto and Ottawa (both in Ontario).  In this Radio-Canada interview she explains how she self-identifies as a Franco-Ontarian.  Quote: «Mes collègues me prennent tous pour une Québécoise. Cette méprise me sert pour couvrir la politique.» ("My colleagues always take me for a Quebecker. This mistake is often useful to me when reporting on politics.") Cleduc 20:44, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: She does identify as franco-ontarienne, although if you listen to the interview with her on rbo she mentions how she lived in Hull(QC) for the first few years of her life. Dan Carkner 02:22, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Indeed she does.  However, it isn't where she was born, and it isn't where she says she's "from".  I think "Quebec journalist" would be misleading, in that light. Cleduc 04:21, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Does "Québec journalist" mean a journalist born in Québec, a journalist who currently lives in Québec, a journalist whose work is frequently centered on Québec and its social/political issues, or a journalist whose services have been and still are retained by Québec-based news organizations?  By the first 2 criteria she's not a Québec journalist, and by the last 2 she is. -- WikiPedant 20:38, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: She also lives in montreal by her own definition "for the rest of her life"..Dan Carkner 22:26, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Considering she lives in Outremont (according to her 2008 Michener Lecture), publishes frequently in Quebec papers, and writes about Quebec politics in her columns and book, I agree she should be listed as a Quebec journalist. She may not meet a definition of a Quebecoise, but she is certainly a Quebec journalist.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.78.105.2 (talk) 17:56, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Origin and identity 

message: It is not stated in the article, but can her sexuality be identified?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.68.14.96 (talk) 01:48, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Personal 

message: A number of statements in this section are one-sided or inaccurate. The article gives more credence than warranted to the least favourable interpretation of events from Parizeau's perspective. This clip from Radio-Canada gives a more complete picture.
* The "lobsters in boiling water" quote is presented as fact, when in fact it was denied by multiple sources, including the Spanish ambassador, who hosted the meeting. 
* The Radio-Canada story says the La Presse article only spoke of "a comparison with lobsters" because the quote couldn't be verified entirely.
* The Radio-Canada journalist raises the possibility that the phrase "lobster pot", which is actually synonymous with "lobster trap" in English, might have been misunderstood by the Dutch ambassador as referring to a cauldron. 
* The Belgian ambassador, who is presented in the Wikipedia article as supporting the "boiling water" quote, later "called Hébert to say that Parizeau's comment, as cited in the report, was 'to the best of [his] memory, not what was said.'"  96.46.193.139 (talk) 06:48, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
