THE “Shocking” remarks by French actor Gérard Depardieu in a documentary caused him to be removed from the National Order of Quebec.
The office of Prime Minister François Legault made the announcement Wednesday afternoon, under the recommendation of the Order. “The scandalous remarks made by Gérard Depardieu in front of the cameras shocked the international public, with good reason. His behavior tarnishes the reputation of the members of the Order,” said Mr. Legault.
Further details will follow.
