During the election 2019 election campaign, it was found that in 2013, Desbiens wrote on her Facebook page that the Charter of Quebec Values that was being proposed by the Parti Québécois government of the day should be supported even if it was not perfect. “Our daughters, grand-daughters and great-grand-daughters could have to wear a veil to go to the IGA for fear of going to prison in a few years,” In 2016, she praised far-right French politician Marine Le Pen for having the courage of her convictions on Facebook. “Whether one agrees or not or only partially with what Ms. Le Pen says, we need more people like her”.^[3][4] She later apologized about it, expressing deep regrets.^[5][6]

Since 2021 she has served as the critic of fisheries, oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard in the Bloc Québécois Shadow Cabinet.^[7]
