A family doctor who has worked in mental health and addiction for nearly 20 years, Marie-Ève Morin raises the negative impacts of the pandemic and encourages people to surround themselves well and take care of themselves.
« In my view, the collateral damage is far worse than the direct damage of COVID-19. It’s time to move on, to reconcile with social life and leisure “, underlined the Beauceronne now established in Montreal for twenty years.
According to her, the COVID-19 pandemic that the world has been going through for the past two years has changed everything. ” We were asked to isolate ourselves from each other for two years, but the consequences of that do not go away with the virus. It’s even worse. Since all that people are not well. »
His observations demonstrate that the psychiatric, psychological and consumer consequences are terrible. There are a lot of people on sick leave, people who drink a lot and who have a lot of anxiety.
It is for this reason that she encourages people to find hobbies, be it cooking, dancing, crafts or sports. ” You have to force yourself to do something other than Netflix. She also reminds us of the importance of getting daylight for at least one hour a day.
« And it is more important than ever to be surrounded, to have social relations. You don’t have to isolate yourself anymore, I think that’s what creates a lot of anxiety, depression, consumption and irritability too. »
In this sense, she criticizes the government for not having made mental health a priority. “ I don’t know anyone who died of COVID-19, but I know 12 people who died of suicide and overdose. Members of my family, my spouse, patients. Indeed, when she had obtained an agreement to subsidize the clinic she had before the pandemic, the government finally refused to give it to her, mentioning that the priority was COVID-19 and not mental health. ” They replied by email that since the priority was COVID-19 and mental health and addictions was not a priority, they were closing my file “, she is indignant.
A rich journey
Over the past 20 years, Marie-Ève has held several positions, but always with the same passion. Although she has changed workplaces a few times, she has been following some of her patients from the start.
She first began practicing medicine in a clinic specializing in HIV in 2005 in Montreal. “ There I had the chance to see all kinds of HIV-positive patients, including drug addicts, people coming out of prison, sex workers and also people with mental health problems. »
Subsequently, she worked in a clinic specializing in addiction, the Clinique du Nouveau Départ. ” There I cared for up to 30 people who were hospitalized in this mini private hospital. They all had mental health and addiction issues, they were big cases. I learned a lot, but almost exhausted myself from 18 hours a day. I loved it, but it was too much. »
It was then that she held positions in federal prisons for four years. ” I worked at the Joliette women’s prison as chief physician for three years. Then, to the prison of Port district, for the sexual predators. It was really special, it’s high security, so the inmates were always hand and foot tied. There were two security guards per detainee and two detainees should not cross paths because it was too dangerous. Then lastly to the Leclerc prison. I loved working in prisons! »
She then joined a general medicine clinic for a while, before founding the Opus clinic with partners. However, this way of doing things did not suit her so she opened the Caméléon clinic on her own in 2015.
« It was really great! Small, but very warm. We had three doctors, nurses. We had no subsidy to run the clinic, it was very expensive. It was then that she took steps to obtain financial support from the government which had been accepted, but which ultimately slipped under her nose when the global COVID-19 pandemic arrived. In August 2021, she had to close the doors of her establishment.
« It pained me a lot. It totally pissed me off with the system. It worked well, the patients liked it. »
She now works at the Clinique la Licorne, still in Montreal. “ There are a lot of actions. It’s amazing. And I’m also a DJ, I mix in festivals, in events. A busy life, but a pace that gives her the opportunity to do activities she enjoys and to have a fulfilling life as a couple.

Last Friday, the 27-year-old singer behind the hits Swing your what et To forget everything made a splash on one of the Californian sets of Coachella, one of the largest and most popular music festivals in the world.
With the exception of his duet Fever with Dua Lipa, her entire performance was in the language of Brassens. The public did not seem unduly confused.

Reached by Zoom on Tuesday in California, Angèle confessed that she had no idea what to expect when she began this North American tour which, in addition to several dates in the United States, will take her, the week next, in Quebec and Montreal.
“We were quite surprised to see that there were a lot of people who don’t speak French and who are curious. It’s hypercool because it means that there is still a long way to go, that we can come back to do other concerts, especially since I want to sing in French because it is in this language that I expresses me best. »
Happy with her French public
In the same vein, Angèle specifies that she does not reject English, recalling that she grew up listening to American pop. An international career? “I think it goes through English if you want to reach a scale that is very important,” she agrees.
She admits, however, that she would find it difficult to embody her songs and texts, often carrying important messages, in English. Anyway “there is no desire to conquer anything as territory. »
“Me, she says, I am already very happy to have such a large audience in Belgium, France and Quebec. It’s great because I know he’s loyal. As long as I can keep this audience, which has been there since the beginning, I’m happy. »
transformed artist
One thing is certain, in Quebec, it returns to conquered territories. A Videotron Center and two Bell Centers await the one that Quebecers have adopted since their first visits, at the time of the album Bro.
They will see a transformed performer on stage, more in control, better equipped to handle large crowds. During the pandemic, she took dance and singing lessons.
“In the beginning, I was learning on the job. I went headlong, but there was no dancing, no vocal technique. Sometimes it might be awkward, but at the same time I have no regrets. When I look at the images of these concerts, it was touching, sincere. I was so happy to be there. »
- Angèle at the Videotron Center on April 27 and at the Bell Center on April 29 and 30.
