About Serge Brideau

Serge Brideau has held various positions, including as a paramedic, unionist, care worker and member/vice-president of the SANB Board of Directors. He is well known as the activist singer for the  group Les Hôtesses d'Hilaire.  Serge Brideau is a go-getter who has never been afraid to express his opinions and is  known for his outspokenness. He has always followed through on his ideas and everything he does, he  does with passion. From a young age, he has always enjoyed speaking in front of groups of people. On  stage, he is in his element. 

Allergic to hypocrisy, incoherence and greed, Serge advocates instead transparency. 

On the other hand, he does not always take himself seriously. His sense of humor and self-mockery are  ample proof of this. A lover of culture in the broadest sense, Serge likes, more than anything, to travel  and meet others. In the regions he visits he likes  to discover art,  savor and learn about local food, and understand more about the region’s history and politics. At the age of 25, he went to work for the Gambian Red  Cross for six months. 

Since the age of 19, Serge has traveled, as much as possible, around the world, with a backpack or with  the music group Les Hôtesses d'Hilaire. The biggest lesson he has learned from his travels is how lucky  he is to live in Acadia. As he likes to say: "It's beautiful everywhere, it all depends on how you look at it.” What is dearest to him is his lover, Monica, with her two children, his family, his friends and his two dogs.
