From the first minutes of the year under review there has been talk of the most difficult moments of the Legault government. The Le Plan CAQ column features Claude Legault as Quebec Prime Minister François Legault as he tries to address the controversies that have marked this year, particularly that of the 3rd Quebec-Lévis connection. The Prime Minister decides to use the services of the show Floor Bthat allow you to go back in time, to try to fix your mistakes, but in vain.
Likewise, later, in a sketch about the failures during the launch of the SAAQ-CLIC platform, Claude Legault plays Éric Caire, the minister of cybersecurity and digital affairs, leading a team of young, rowdy and lazy people. Like Robert Oppenheimer’s team in the movie Oppenheimerthe group pilots the project without considering the consequences of their actions, in a segment titled SAAQENHEIMER.
Quebec Education Minister Bernard Drainville was also personified by the team HI HI at the end of the show. Played by Patrick Huard, the minister is presented as one of the greatest actors of his generation. He then gives advice to experienced actors Rémi Girard and Élise Guilbault.
The joint TVA and Radio-Canada newscast returned this year with Sophie Thibault, played by Guylaine Tremblay, and Patrice Roy, played by Pierre Brassard, in a studio full of children due to public sector strikes in Quebec. This segment was an opportunity to retrace several important moments in the news, in particular the trip of the president of the FTQ, Magali Picard, to Dubai, the expenses of the former president of the Office de consultation publique de Montréal, Dominique Ollivier, and the The arrival of the Los Angeles Kings in Quebec.
The return of Rooms in the city

The change in the appearance of Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre also came into its own during the year. Guylaine Tremblay plays Pierre Poilievre who tries to change frames, but Sarah-Jeanne Labrosse’s character suggests he simply ditch the glasses instead.
