After working for fifteen years in journalism (particularly in television), François Dallaire decided that if reporting is good, expressing oneself must be even better. His principal sources of inspiration are a wide range of work experiences, his  numerous encounters with people from many walks of life, and his frequent travels and long sojourns abroad (particularly in the developing world): in a word, the different worlds which he has had the opportunity to inhabit. With a highly independent mind and a rather frugal body, this counter-cultural polemicist does not hesitate to adopt radical views on controversial topics of the day.
