Pogačar's (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) return to racing at the Grand Prix Cycliste de Québec on Friday was the scene of a rare miss, as the World Champion finished in 29th place – his worst one-day result in three years.
Julian Alaphilippe (Tudor Pro Cycling Team) claimed a brilliant solo victory, while Pogačar finished 26 seconds back in the chase group, his lowest placing in a one-day race since 2022.

Bill 9, introduced by the governing Coalition Avenir Québec on Thursday,
bans prayer in public institutions, including in colleges and universities.
It also bans communal prayer on public roads and in parks,
with the threat of fines of C$1,125 for groups in contravention of the prohibition.
Short public events with prior approval are exempt.

Punk gegen Gift: Widerstand in der „Hauptstadt des Arsens"
In Rouyn-Noranda, Québec, ist die Arsenkonzentration in der Luft durchschnittlich fünfmal höher als in der übrigen Provinz. Angesichts der Gefahren dieses krebserregenden Elements ist die Reaktion der Behörden nach Ansicht mehrerer Organisationen unzulänglich. […]

I love university libraries.
(Dear reader, I have a weakness for 70s prog from Québec, arguably the beating heart of the genre at the time. I don't know where else I'd find this LP.)

A white hand holding a white LP sleeve featuring a color pen and ink drawing. The band name - Maneige - is at the top in a funky script.
The back of the LP sleeve featuring a photo of the band, the names of the members, a brief description of the album (a long sentence in French featuring two(!) colons), and the track titles.

Bonjour Québec. Das Frühstück war etwas opulent, also noch schnell ein paar Schritte tun, bevor der Regen kommt. Frisch, 6°C und etwas Wind.

I'll take any excuse to encourage others to listen this damn fine band and, in particular, this fantastic tune about a man and his snowmobile (how's your Québec French?).

#TuneTuesday this week asks for #AnimalCalls, songs with animal sounds or about animals. I'll go literal. This tune - the first off the first album by the best ever Québec trad group (on se bat-tu ?) - features a loon right off the top.

Good Morning #Canada
#HappyBirthday to Bat Masterson, the famous American gunslinger who was born near Henryville Quebec in 1853. He's our segue to another #CanadianCapitals post, naturally about Quebec City. Explorer Samuel de Champlain founded the French settlement in 1608 and adopted the Algonquin name, which means "where the river narrows." Quebec City is one of the oldest European settlements in North America. The ramparts surrounding Old Quebec (Vieux-Québec) are the only fortified city walls remaining in the Americas north of Mexico. Those walls were put to good use as Québec spent the next 170 years fighting off invaders, mostly by the British but also by Americans. The city was established as the capital of Canada under British rule in 1792 and was named the provincial capital in 1867 when Canada East became Quebec.

Good Morning #Canada
Checking my fake holiday calendar, and I see it's Go For A Ride Day. I guess that could include cars, trains, skateboards, horses, and your favourite human, but let's focus on bicycles. Some people say Canada is too big to have a cycling culture and that's why there's only 1 bike for every 4 Canadians. But those are the people who have never heard of cities... or are named Doug Ford. Only 6% of Canadians are active commuters, meaning walking or biking, but it's more prevalent in Victoria (18.7%) and Halifax (12.3%). About one-third (34%) of neighbourhoods across Canada have no cycling infrastructure but some municipalities have invested in high-comfort bike lanes (dedicated & protected pathways), including Montréal (360 km), Vancouver (246 km), Edmonton (226 km) and Québec City (190 km).
Here's some #StatsCan data on commuting by bike.
