There's something incredibly enjoyable about my neighbourhood in the summer on a sunny "long week-end" when construction stops; you can hear the wind, birds chirping, playful children in the area…
I've been subconsciously traumatized by the last 10 years of uninterrupted roadworks & building construction noises; it's why in the past 2 years I often escaped the city during weekdays and come back to it on week-ends.
I hope to spend time there more often in 2025; #Montreal is lovely when quiet.
We’re going to #montreal in August to watch the Red Bull Cliff Diving event, as we have a friend whose daughter has been competing (and winning) for 3ish years in the sport. It’s also for my 40th birthday 👀 Anyway the part I’m most excited about is taking the train 😂 #ottawa#viarail#publictransit
Anche a Montreal parcheggiare in strada un SUV costerà di più.
#Montreal raddoppia la tassa per iresidenti che vorranno parcheggiare un #SUV.

#Quebec media say a new bill to protect politicians is excessive, harms free speech - #Montreal

The ‘hypotheses’ of language at home and quality/proximity of schools on why some #Quebec students eligible for English schools opt for French education
“In #Montreal, about 81 per cent of those eligible choose an English school but in places like the Laurentians and Lanaudière region, it’s a different story.”
Today is #Montréal's 40th consecutive day with maximum temperature ≥ 7°C. This is the longest run before May 16 in 19 years, since May 15th, 2005. #YulWx#YUL#QCWx
La saison des feux commence et l'été devrait battre tous les records de chaleur. J'ai pensé acheter un masque pour courir. Et je m'enlignais vers le Respro Ultra-light. Avez-vous déjà couru avec un tel masque ? Est-ce supportable ?
After hearing arguments on the matter on Monday, #Quebec#SuperiorCourt Justice #MarcStPierre denied the request Wednesday morning. The judge suggested that the school modify its request and file it to court within the next 10 days.
"[Superior Court Judge] St-Pierre appeared unconvinced by [McGill's lawyer] Darche's claim that the university's convocation plans were "urgent" when compared with the rights of the protesters to demonstrate peacefully."
