"While I don't know anything about Canadian law (which, I assume, would
apply in Quebec) I find it very difficult to believe that a newspaper
would need a signed release from a person addressing a political rally
that was open to the public before it could publish a photograph
depicting that luminary speaking. In addition, I would find it very
strange if the law requires that the newspaper obtain a signed release
before publishing a photograph showing identifiable attendees at a public
political rally."

From what I remember David is right.  You only need a release if there are under X number of people in the photograph or at the event.  Regrettably, I do not recall what value X represents!
