Listen if
Anyone tracking the French-speaking Canadian cyber scene; ransomware waves and public-sector incidents in Quebec have their own rhythm and English coverage is thin.
Skip if
Non-French speakers; also listeners expecting Hexagonal French — the show is unmistakably Quebec.
Key takeaways
- The only sustained French-language podcast that covers the Quebec cyber scene seriously (Hackfest, public-sector incidents, ransomware).
- Mathieu co-founded Hackfest.ca; the podcast often previews what's being discussed there.
- Weekly + guest segments format gives regular coverage without becoming pure news.
Notes
Pair with NoLimitSecu for the French-from-France angle, and the Hackfest livestreams for community context.
