  1. Thank the courts for common sense, Northvolt can resume work. Take that, nimbys
  2. 0.4%, wow!!! On fiiiiiire!! 😂
  3. I try really hard to be optimistic, but between extreme nimbys and incompetent governments, it's getting really hard.
  4. This province is such a joke lol, this is why we cannot have nice things. Quebec continues to regress, if not by the government, by a loud handful of nimbys. Québec is dead
  5. Some of my friends were laid off there.... they're obviously not happy, but are flabbergasted by the Quebec government trying to ruin Montreal.
  6. Canada Already In Recession, Hard Landing To Cool Inflation: Oxford Econ https://betterdwelling.com/canada-already-in-recession-hard-landing-to-cool-inflation-oxford-econ/
  7. Not in Quebec and especially in Montreal, been zero growth and contracting growth. Unemployment is closer to 8%, job market is a mix, tight but also hundreds of thousands of missing jobs, hiring freezes, layoffs soaring. Income is not truly up, our purchaisng power is much lower, retail is stagnating. Unfortunately, Quebec has been in a recession since last year. The two quarter definition doesn't matter when growth has been at near zero or at zero for longer. It'll only get worse until it gets better.
  8. Riot games laid off 500+ globally, video game industry is getting decimated. Unfortunately, Montreal will be one of the hardest hit cities in this recession.
  9. No workers on site yesterday, all projects are having slowdowns or no work at all... If people didn't believe it then, or now, this shows we have entered a significant recession. I don't expect any bouceback until mid year, or early next at the worst.
  10. Like you mentioned, supply chain issues but also, projects are always absurdly slow after the holidays. There's lots of work going on the inside, however.
  11. A lot of it came down to ensuring downtown was the centralized area of entertainment and performance halls. Competition is good, however, this project will take away a lot of the high end stuff downtown (short term, nothing permanent). So this agreement was made years ago after talks with officials and lobbyisys to ensure downtown's vitality in this regard.
  12. This has been the case for years now, nothing new (about performance halls). The water park is still planned.
  13. So days after Plante and her admin said they want 24H nightlife, they have cut funding (completely) for MTL24/24 and reduced funding for SAT MTL, two important factors for promoting events and nightlife in the city... and successful events. This admin is not serious at all.
  14. Prehos (based in Quebec City) opened a new office in MTL. (Let's see how fast this new news gets posted elsewhere without credit)
  15. So everyone I spoke to about this plan, business community members to daily citizens all feel the plan is garbage and offers nothing new. That just shows how not serious our admin is.
  16. Yeah... all of downtown should have designated 24H nightlife zones, not sure why they're limiting it to one area. Crescent should benefit, Chinatown should as well, Old MTL, the village. Etc.. having it in one area is a weird move. I'm still disappointed that the city is not giving tax breaks either. If it can afford to spend $1.8B over 10 years in one area, they can afford to have tax holidays, encourage investments and new business, recoup and gain $$$. Yet...here we are again having this convo about the city having such a narrow direction.
  17. ^ I hate to say it, but MTL is pretty much dead, it's become a mediocre city and we've declined so hard in all aspects. Sometimes, it feels like the city is cursed, we can't have more than 5 years of prosperity before people **ck it up. The city has become depressing, not as bad as the 90s but it's getting there. The homeless & drug epidemic, vacant storefronts exploding, lack of new builds/any news, add the economic conditions, inflation, etc... it's been 4 years of hardship and it feels like it won't end anytime soon.
  18. I have to read this in depth, however, 24H nightlife only for Quartier Latin but not Crescent? The whole downtown should be a 24/7 zone. Happy to see they officially expanded downtown boundaries Looks like no incentives to reduce taxes or ask the province for powers to grant tax breaks/credits to build units... nor reduce red tape. Socially mixed language again... clearly won't work anymore, typical jargon... how long will those 15K units take to build? At this pace it'll be 20 years... Edit: had a proper look, what a mediocre plan... typical
  19. -38% yet the city grows by 100K, too much red tape from Velo Val and company.
  20. Nice seeing Agora peeps (again) taking stuff I break on here and not give me (and the forum, really) credit.
  21. Humanis talent acqusition & advisory expanded to Montreal, opening their practice in the commercial portion of this building
  22. That's correct, it's down two floors, I think the floor plates are slightly larger as well. Even then, they still went ahead and acquired 330K sq ft of additional space, which is wild. I asked my contacts if anything fell through before NB took over. They said start-ups were eyeing the space, but nothing manifested. I think Ac-x was also scouting that too.
  23. Correct, I broke this in the VSLP thread a while back. Still funny that they shaved off two floors on their HQ, only to buy and lease 330K sq ft of office space + commerical space after....
