Look at this article

Émilie Ricard, a nurse, was published last week by a selfie that put a face on the inhuman working conditions of nurses. Gaétan Barrette responded by inviting the nurses to spend a more positive message (his words), and Philippe Couillard has criticized the negative message that the FIQ (Fédération Interprofessionnelle de la santé du Québec) sends.
 
You don’t find it ridiculously low to ask the nurses to be half dead to adopt a more positive attitude? It is so moved, fâchant, scornful.
 

Is it that these two men would have reacted the same way if it had been a question of working conditions in the construction? Is it that they would have been “game” to tell the guys to be more positive? Would they have had the same side slobbering, claiming that it is the fault of their unions, if in full-time positions are not filled? I doubt it.
 
The nurses are taunt.
 
The nurses are taunt. It is necessary to react promptly and it must be done strongly, with anger. And most importantly, do not be silent.


But at what price? When a woman ascends the tone, the trafficking of hysterical or “Germaine”. Often, one is asked: “well, are you menstruating?”. Aggression in humans is considered to be the same way? No.
 
The men have the right to be angry all the time. It is accepted, or even valued. The boys are well socialized with games of knights, we are encouraged to “play the battle”, and to defend them in the school yard, leaves to show the fists.
 
The girls, they are encouraged to be gentle, to care, to evolve in this so-called “care”, they value their shyness, their “cuteness”. And we told them so too often they are, therefore, ben good!
 
As well, growing up, the women forget to express their anger, and when they do, they are not taken seriously: they inevitably end up seeking treatment of feminists frustrated.
 
The selfie, an error? No.
 
As a result the extent to which the publication of his selfie, Émilie Ricard wondered whether she had not made a mistake. No, no and no! He should acknowledge his courage and daring. It is certainly difficult to become a standard-bearer of a cause, but it is important to take and maintain his position, especially when it starts to move.
 
How is it that the drivers.’buses have better working conditions than nurses? Isn’t there two essential services? I emit the hypothesis that they arrived there thanks to their anger and their persistence.
 
Therefore, I encourage all women to speak out, to show their emotions, whatever they may be, but above all, do not hold back their anger when the two men to be able to laugh in your face. Most importantly do not be silent.
 
Use social media, take example on the brave Emilia, the movement #metoo, and go for it!
