Opinion: The AI scandal rocking France’s literary elite has deep political undertones (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There was always a fairy tale aspect to Haitian-Canadian author Thélyson Orélien’s rocket-like rise from literary obscurity to the shortlist for France’s prestigious Prix Goncourt. His debut novel’s nomination – and the promise of lucrative future book deals that comes with it – defied the hierarchical rules of the French literary world. Yet, not even the tradition-bound Académie Goncourt could ignore the buzz Mr. Orélien’s novel created when it was released in France in August, after becoming a
What to know about the Quebec election, the major parties and how to vote (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Election day is approaching in Quebec, where a crowded race could make winning a majority of the 127 seats up for grabs challenging for any party on the ballot. None of the five main parties have polled higher than 30 per cent, but in a divided political landscape, the Parti Québécois now appears likely to form government – and potentially even a majority – despite a promise of a sovereignty referendum most Quebeckers don’t want.

And his recent calls for an alternative to the U.S. greenback as a global reserve currency will not go over well in Washington, where the dollar’s dominance is seen as an indispensable tool in the conduct of U.S. economic and foreign policy. The U.S. dollar accounts for about 57 per cent of foreign exchange reserves held by the world’s central banks. While the proportion is down from about 70 per cent in 200
Venezuela’s interim President Rodriguez promises elections, transition to ‘full democracy’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Venezuela’s interim President Delcy Rodríguez told the UN General Assembly on Wednesday that the country would hold elections as part of a transition to “full democracy,” but did not give a specific date for the vote. “I want to make this very clear at this General Assembly: there will be elections in Venezuela,” said Rodriguez, who came to power after American forces captured then-President Nicolás Maduro in a January raid. In her remarks, Rodriguez said the government had initiated talks with
