\"Tribute<\/a>Les cols bleus \u00e0 la disposition des d\u00e9m\u00e9nageurs<\/a> | Moving is a dirty job – for city crews<\/a>: one of the several down-sides of having a coordinated “moving day”, for sure. Yuck.<\/p>\n

Critics fear more development at Benny site<\/a>. NDG citizens worry that the planned construction of a sports complex across from Benny Farm will bring other, less community-minded development.<\/p>\n

Later store hours debated<\/a> | Montreal seeks later hours for downtown stores<\/a>. Laws currently require stores to close at 5 pm on weekends, but many believe staying open until 8 pm for tourists would be good for business.<\/p>\n

Suspect in beating death expected in court<\/a>: That vacant lot surrounding St-Laurent metro station has “bad news” written all over it. Despite hearing of plans year after year in the ten years since I moved Montreal, nothing ever seems to happen there.<\/p>\n

Dialing and driving gets you a $100 fine in Montreal<\/a> beginning Tuesday. Even just holding a cellphone while driving, or even while at a red light, can incur you the fine. This is in contrast to California’s law, also coming into effect soon, which strangely does not specifically bar text-messaging on the road. (That will have to be covered by reckless-driving statutes.)<\/p>\n
