Simon Paradis-Lacroix is a contestant from Survivor Québec (2023).
Despite being well-positioned in an alliance, Simon plotted against its leader, Christophe Tiffet, by calling him a manipulator. But this backfired on him after Christophe caught wind of what Simon said about him. At Tiyaga's first Tribal Council, Joël Dandurand convinced the tribe to flip on Simon due to his scheming, causing his unanimous elimination.

Occupation: Mécanicien
Simon est le plus jeune des joueurs mais sa maturité risque d'en sidérer plus d'un! Mécanicien d'engins de chantier, il est manuel et débrouillard. Mais il a plusieurs autres cordes à son arc: c'est un ancien champion de mathématiques et un redoutable joueur d'échecs! Il est conscient qu'il risque d'être une menace sur l'île… Par contre, s'il doit faire face à la défaite, ce joueur de hockey aux airs frondeurs ne se cache pas pour dire qu'il est très, très mauvais perdant.[2]
Survivor Québec[]
Simon was placed on the Tiyaga tribe, who found themselves on a winning streak early on. Although Simon sometimes annoyed people in both tribes with his bold celebrations at challenges, he was able to develop good bonds with many of his tribemates, especially Sango Bien-Aimé, and seemed to be in a comfortable position in an alliance led by Christophe Tiffet. However, Simon did not feel at ease with Christophe's close relationship with Jean-Junior Morin, so he told Sandrine Fortier and Marika Guay that Christophe was an emotional manipulator in an attempt to separate some of Christophe's allies from him. This backfired on Simon when the women relayed Simon's words back to Christophe.
After the Tiyaga tribe lost the second Immunity Challenge, Kimberly Fortin and Isabelle Gagnon were targeted for elimination due to their perception as weaker challenge performers, though Simon was still well within Christophe's crosshairs for what he previously told Marika and Sandrine. By the time of Tribal Council, it seemed to be that Isabelle was going to be voted out because, additionally, she was not in the majority alliance. However, when people started to whisper to each other to confirm this vote, Joël Dandurand joined in and suddenly turned the tides against Simon in an attempt to save Isabelle, reminding his tribemates that Simon was being very manipulative. Agreeing that he had crossed an ethical line, the Tiyaga tribe voted out Simon unanimously.
