There is a large number of candidates to choose from this year in the Sud-Ouest Arrondissement.

If you are eligible to vote, you should have received a card in the mail from Elections Montreal. This will tell you where to vote. If you can’t find the card, you can search for your voting station at election-montreal.qc.ca/voter/ou-voter/index.en.html.

The polls are open tomorrow from 10 AM to 8 PM.

CARRS

Manuel Johnson and some of his neighbours have organized a citizen’s community group called CARRS (Comité d’action des rivérain(e)s de la rue St-Antoine). The major issue at stake is the fast and dangerous car traffic on St-Antoine that goes by Ludger Duvernay Elementary school.

There is going to be a walk down St-Antoine on October 15th at 16h30 from Ludger Duvernay school to a public space near the Home Depot. Representatives from all three municipal parties will be there to see how unsafe St-Antoine at rush hour. For more info visit Johnson’s blog, St-Henri Chronicles.

Artists

St-Henri is a treasure trove of artists and their studios.  There are many post-industrial buildings in the neighbourhood that are perfect spaces for studios: cheap rent, high ceilings, and big windows. The St-Henri Art Walk takes place next weekend. Come and visit over 60 artists and their studios
