First posts : September 7, 2010
Robert Savignac is a Montréal native. He considers himself like a North American citizen.
Business manager, and president of a network made up of 10 bookstores: Robert is the publisher of 161 books (49 translations). Trained accountant, he was VP Finance for an important translation firm in Toronto. He carried out many management and business organization mandates. He also drew up many communication plans for the Web.
He suffered a burnout at the end of the 90s, then chose a new career path in information technology. He created management applications for various bars and restaurants. This second career as an administrator in Montréal's Gay Village meant that on a daily basis, he dealt with setbacks, caused by prostitution, drug addiction, alcohol, and compulsive gambling.
These experiences and his work in the field were a major turning point in his life. In the years that followed, he became an ardent and passionate advocate of equity, harm reduction and reintegration.
The developer of Stigmabase rejects any nationalist and sovereigntist rethorics and their obsession rooted in xenophobia and in the past.
For him ... The world does not need more borders.

Stigmabase uses only trusted and credible journalistic sources
Journalism ethics and standards are principles of good practice. Professional journalism associations, individual news organizations, and journalists themselves often have their own "code of ethics;" however, most share these basic principles: truthfulness, accuracy, objectivity, impartiality, fairness, and public accountability.

Francis et Kati furent les premiers intervenants bénévoles à commenter le projet. Ils fut alors facile de constater que tous les deux savent placer les valeurs humaines au-dessus de tout. Leur fougue, leur détermination et leur générosité furent impressionnantes
