The tragic Gloria cable car accident in Lisbon on Wednesday claimed the lives of two highly respected individuals from Quebec - archaeologists and restorers of heritage objects, André Bergeron and Blandine Daux.

In other news, the Quebec audiovisual sector is grappling with the challenges posed by the digital revolution. To address these challenges, experts have proposed implementing a national strategy to "re-establish and strengthen the link between Quebec audiences and content" in the audiovisual sector. The aim is to reinforce the connection and ensure the sector's successful emergence from the digital revolution.

Claude Dupré, the head of the working group proposing the future of the audiovisual sector in Quebec, has been recommending the redesign of Tele-Quebec. Dupré's efforts come as the sector strives to emerge victorious from the digital revolution.

Meanwhile, in political news, Quebec CAQ MP Pierre Dufour was expelled from the party's caucus on Friday due to actions that threatened the cohesion of the CAQ team. Earlier in the day, Dufour had announced his intention to resign before being expelled.

The digital revolution poses a significant threat to the Quebec audiovisual sector, and the implementation of a national strategy is proposed to address the challenges faced by the sector. Experts mandated by Quebec believe that such a strategy is crucial to re-establishing and strengthening the link between Quebec audiences and content.

The Gloria cable car accident in Lisbon resulted in the deaths of not just André Bergeron and Blandine Daux, but also a Quebec couple. The couple's contributions to archaeology and the restoration of heritage objects were highly respected in their fields.

As the Quebec audiovisual sector navigates the digital revolution and the aftermath of the tragic accident, we offer our condolences to the families and friends of André Bergeron and Blandine Daux.
