    Yeah, speaking of density. Le Plateau is about 2.5x more dense than Vancouver. If you removed the new suburban boroughs and only focused on Montreal's original core it would not only be the most dense city in Canada, but one of the top in North America.

    This might cost a fortune, but I have always thought the best plan would be to dig a tunnel underneath the current metropolitain, that way most of the work can go on without disturbing the current traffic. The tunnel would just be for traffic wanting to go from saint leonard to west of the 15. The next step would be to demolish the metropolitain. Then build an urbain boulevard at street level that can be used for local traffic.

    We will be sampling the water at the beaches twice daily all summer for the city of Montreal. The city needs to know how the water quality evolves, especially during massive rain events when the sewers overflow into the river. With this data the city will be able to predict when the beaches will have to be closed. Last year the city did a far less exhaustive study. This year we will be taking it much further.

    Is this guy a troll or what?

    I understand what you are saying. But to be fair it was the Charest government 10 years ago and now it is the Couillard gouvernment. I think it is unfair to Couillard to lump the two together. While the Couillard government isn't perfect (no government is), I think they do deserve a lot of credit for making some tough, unpopular decisions that are now paying off and turning our economy around.

    I was on Prince Arthur yesterday and I got to admit my first impression wasn't good. It seems like a weird and confused mess. We will see how it evolves....

    Guys, maybe try stopping the racist comments by generalizing anglophones in such a way. If you substitute anglophone by blacks I think you will get the point.
  9. digitalfunkster
    Why do francophones feel the need to call me Mathieu and not Matthew? People tend to do what is easier.

    Yeah this bridge needs to go

    We can never have a productive debate when that is your starting point.

    I find it to be very self-destructive to blame Canada anytime Quebec doesn't get what it wants. If the BIC goes to Toronto it's not because the ROC hates Monreal. Toronto is very worthy. It's not like it's going to Winnipeg! It's such a lazy argument. The equivalent to the God of the gaps.

    Certainement. I am one of those types of anglos
  14. digitalfunkster
    For sure. Oui, billinguisme est une stat plus importante au Quebec que la lanque maternelle selon moi aussi.
  15. digitalfunkster
    Pour etre juste il y a des commentaires qui sont terrible dans les journaux franco aussi. Regarde les commentaires d'un article de Mathieu Bock-Cote. Scary shit. En passant le francais comme lanque maternelle au Quebec est plus comme 75% de la population. En 2011 c'etait 78%, alors surement vers 75% aujourd'hui. Demographie linguistique du Quebec — Wikipedia

    In fairness Waterloo is an hour and a half away by car from Toronto. Not insignificant.

    I can see Mark's point. I think when companies from outside of Quebec and Canada start investing in Montreal it will be a much better indicator.

    So is it official that the Caisse will not be using the station built below Trudeau airport? If so, that's really sad.

    I agree with Andre, this area has gotten SO much better in the last 10 years. When I was studying at Concordia 10 years ago this part of town was terrible, now it is a second "China" town and there are almost no vacancies. It is actually one of my favourite areas in Montreal to find food!

    It feels great to see an elevated highway get knocked down. Next year this area will look so much better, but more importantly, be so much more inviting.

    You're right, Montrealers aren't interested in hot girls with big boobs...

    I grew up in Saint Leonard, north of the 40. I used to have to take the Lacordaire bus to Cadillac metro, then the green line all the way downtown to Concordia. I don't live there anymore, but I don't see how a blue line station at say Lacordaire and Jean Talon would do anything for someone wanting to go downtown if thy live north of the 40. Why would somehow take a bus to the new blue line metro, then transfer at Jean-Talon, then transfer again at Berri? I feel like it would be less of a hassle to just stay on the bus all the way to Cadillac and then take a single metro ride downtown. Honestly, it might even be faster as well. Certainly is more convenient.

    I once got served by twins at Hooters in Greenfield Park. Every time I have eaten there (maybe 4 times in total) I got the shits. Never again.
  24. digitalfunkster
    Exactly. It seems like we only start caring and freaking out when white people die. Almost 50 people get killed by ISIS in Lebanon and no one really cares. I'd prefer we just acknowledge that it is all terrible and not make meaningless statements. You know what lighing up the Olympic Stadium or making your Facebook profile pic the colours of France does? Fucking nothing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FLGEr1zJYo&app=desktop

    I'd rather our city not pick which tragedies to support. Why not put up the colours of the Lebanese flag? 43 were killed in Beirut by ISIS the day before Paris. Why not the Kenyan flag? Today it was reported over 100 were killed in Kenya.
