Yes it is the home where Pauline Marois has been living in Bizard Island. She has been there for quite some time. Once for an article, I rang up Hydro Quebec to ask what the electricity bill is in that home and they told me some ridiculous sum, thousands per month - many times what Mulroney and Charest pay combined for their Montreal area homes. As a result Marois has been mercilessly mocked by the separatist grassroots for her posh digs as it undermines their ongoing dreams of a pitchfork revolution. The shack is for sale on MLS, apparently for $8 million. Virtually every home has a swimming pool on that island, but surely nobody has one quite so far from the main house.

La Marois. But the big question is...when did Chimples get his rotary-wing pilot certification?

Part of the land it sits on could still, one day, be utilized for the extension of the 440 to hit up with the 40 in Kirkland...a project that hit a brick wall in 1976 and hasn't moved an inch since.
ReplyDeletePart of the problem is that the PQ is supposed to be a left leaning party with deep social commitments to the population. It does not fit for the leader of such a party to live in this type of castle. It is more something one might expect from a conservative leader
ReplyDeleteBut she is a conservative leader!
