IUC Exclusive: Le Roi Arthur Also Called Bourassa a Creative Man

Posted on June 19th, 2009 by HisHighness in IUC:Entertainment, IUC:Exclusive

Le Roi Andre Arthur’s quote to me last week might have been just on the spur of the moment.  Mr. Arthur, a Quebec icon and radio legend, also said that former Quebec Premier Robert Bourassa was “a creative man”.  He certainly wasn’t trying to take shots at Bourassa.  Mr. Arthur is a man who shoots straight from the hip.  I take his word that he only suggested Bourassa was a paedophile for the author of a new book to consider to use for research material.  As far as I’m concerned, it’s time to put it all behind and let Bourassa RIP.  In fact, I’m a huge fan of Bourassa’s son Francois, who is a legendary jazz pianist.  I take Arthur’s word for it because he’s a man of honor and a man who has given back to his community probably more than any other Quebec media personality.  Merci Andre!

    And speaking of shooting “straight from the hip,” Ian … as always, I am impressed with your open honesty. I don’t know who any of these folks are, but I hope they all appreciate your honesty as much as I do. Cheers. xx

    “IUC regrets any inconvenience the story may have caused Arthur but we certainly stand by our story [that Bourassa was gay and a child molester].” -June 13th

    Why the sudden change of heart? And, how come you suddenly think it’s time to “put it all behind” when you were the first to publish these claims online less than a week ago, why didn’t you let it pass then instead of opening the door? Just wondering.

    I’m sure someone else posted this on another thread, but I haven’t checked. Anyway, Ian made it onto the AOL news reel in one of the top boxes! Well Played Ian! Gave me a smile, hope it did for you as well!
