The Gazette did an excellent job of putting together an interview with Hani (his first since the tragedy) and several related commentaries to move this topic of infrastructures forward. Some key statements from the interview:
"How do we make this into a movement? I do not understand why everybody is arguing. We all have the same point. We all want to work. We all want to be happy. We want to be safe"
It's not one person, it's the whole system that needs to be changed. We need to fight for concrete laws that will improve our society. The word is concrete."
The interview by Peggy Curran:
Two years after his wife Léa Guilbeault was killed by a falling piece of concrete, this reluctant activist is frustrated by how little has been done
The Gazette’s View: End the foot-dragging on high-rise inspections

Comme je travaille pour Porte Parole, producteur de la pièce relatant l'aspect humain de l'effondrement du viaduc de la Concorde, je comprends votre indignation devant la mauvaise gestion de nos édifices et infrastructures. Nous devons nous solidariser afin de faire cesser la culture du profit à tout prix. La plupart des accidents liés à la construction auraient été évités si on avait travaillé honnêtement. Je salue votre courage.
Merci à vous aussi J-F. J'ai bien aimé votre production Sexy Béton sur l'effondrement du pont la chapelle. il faut que tout le monde travaille ensemble...
