Here are Laurence Jalbert's words about this omission, which visibly affected her:
“Well, I’m not here.
2 years of touring with 5 shows per week. A “Communio” album that had enormous success. Work, work, always leave the house, leave my children with babysitters.
A little Bigras amnesia? 😜
My mother died at the start of this tour and I didn't have time to see her go…
You know, there are times when you say to yourself: There are limits.
Well, hurtful…”
Apparently Laurence Jalbert's news reached the ears of Dan Bigras, who removed the publication in question.
