They've stated they won't begin construction until the Brossard line opens. Still finalizing some plans at last check.

Back at it!

Testing has resumed👍

Via the webcam, repair job looks complete. I'm hearing they only need one month now to get reliability testing up to 95%. Fingers crossed!

Montreal's newest artwork: The Ring

A little video on Montreal's newest artwork at PVM

Exactly. When all these rumours first started in 2012, all the American baseball pundits said 2027 was the likely date it would happen. It seemed so far away in 2012 but it's right around the corner now..

When it comes time to leave Montreal, some visitors have a hard time saying goodbye..

Tourists being swept up by Montreal's beauty

Thanks everyone! And yes Normand, I'm planning to do a University/Student video at some point. This summer I'm going through and cataloguing thousands of video clips into subjects/themes so that I can edit faster. I was coming across so many videos of people visiting for the first time since 2019 and being overwhelmed to be back in the city, I just had to create a quick one about that. Stay tuned!

Tourists visiting Montreal for the first time since the pandemic, and realizing how much they love it (and missed it) ❤️

A reminder of what Germany looks like, arguably the world's greatest country for train connectivity, along with Japan. As someone who has travelled throughout the country by train, I can promise you no one cares about the look of the catenaries, especially when riding it. The reliable and fast service more than makes up for it, and it will be the same thing with the REM. The interior of the REM trains and stations will be what people remember.

Opened in 1912, the Ritz-Carlton Montreal was the first hotel in the world to bear the name Ritz-Carlton

They have said before it will likely take less than 3 months to test the entire route, because they've been testing a portion of it for so long. 6 months makes more sense for the other portions because there's multiple branches that have to properly flow and connect together. December is definitely attainable. Fingers crossed!

What an Australian thinks of our little race

Wow thank you so much Normand, incredible hearing that kind of reaction! I wasn't born yet but all my life I've heard of the legendary Expo 67, I have passports from relatives that have since passed on, and so many stories they shared. I knew there was a treasure trove of amazing clips floating around and knowing how much it influenced the city and country, it was a joy to create. I think I'm most proud of being able to include snippets of all the songs created for the event haha. As someone who missed both Expo 67 and the 76 Olympics, I hope Montrealers can one day get over the Olympic boondoggle and get that desire to once again host the world in some fashion, the city is stronger and richer than it has ever been and the world knows Montreal can throw a world-class party.

55 years ago this summer, the fair that changed Montreal and Canada forever.

A few stills from: https://youtu.be/ouVHWUirzfk They may not be the most beautiful or original but I think they're going to become iconic in their own way.

I remember back to the Louis Boheme days on this forum, 28 floors and everyone was ecstatic. Now we get 200m twins in a perfect location and people are finding ways to complain. I miss the old days of optimism and seeing the glass half full around here..

Surprised no one posted these from yesterday, the interior looks incredible! From the rem.info website
