“I really like biographies, real-life events, true stories, and Florence-Agathe Dubé-Moreau’s book really interested me. I was already following her columns, WAGS me neitherIn Urbania. It is certain that being Laurent Duvernay-Tardif’s partner, she has been in a world that few know. We discover how she lived with Laurent in Kansas City, the Super Bowl, her vision of things and her experiences. She also gives advice on what the NFL could do to improve the way of life [des athlètes]. I really liked it; it’s a bit of a mix of his life and chronicles on the world of sport.”

The 2024 Olympic Gamble — Luck or Curse?

The author is a Frenchman who is an international consultant in sports and Olympism. Right now, I am eating and breathing the Olympic Games. Since this is my first time there, I wanted to learn about the history of the Olympic Games and I asked Radio-Canada Sports journalist Robert Frosi to help me with that; he lent me this book. It is an Olympic ABC, but it is also all the challenges — political, economic, financial, cultural, ethical. We talk about doping, media, youth, for example. […] How will Paris make good use of the history of the past while being in the present and even going into the games of the future?

We need to get things moving!

It’s important for me to get my two daughters and young people in general moving. Since the pandemic, it hasn’t been easy. And this book shows a new vision of things: how to get young people moving, but less in competition and performance. My husband, Charles Hamelin, who is a high-level athlete, and I don’t want to raise our children to be Olympians. If they want to, so much the better, but I want them to be happy in that. […] I learned what the concept of physical literacy is. And what’s interesting in the book, too, is that we discover what’s being done elsewhere in the world.”
