This page is bias, le Devoir does not officially have an allegeance to sovereignty, in fact Claude Ryan who was chief editor for many years was a known federalist.

As far as I know is does not officially have an allegiance to sovereignty, indeed, however I think it is fair to say that reading it one can sense some nationalism and sympathy towards the separatist movement from the authors. I also remember reading openly separatist editorials. I don't know how this could be appropriately worded in the article, though. Saintamh 22:56, 18 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Removing Final Sentence in History edit

At present the article mentions that Le Devoir is one of the most prestigious newspapers in Canada and has excellent international coverage, none of these claims are normative in an objective encyclopedic article about a newspaper and seem more to advertise the paper's quality. The link provided as reference to these claims is used far too broadly and at no point makes any direct claim as to the quality of the contemporary paper. I will therefore be removing the last sentence in it's entirety.Thesassypenguin (talk) 09:18, 16 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
