THE BARRICADES ON THE CITY OF MONTREAL (PART 2)

BARRICADES ON THE CITY OF MONTREAL -
By Bernard Bujold -
It's like the days of New France and the barricades against the Iroquois... Except that the warriors attacking Montreal are rioters who mingle with popular demonstrations. 
With the good weather on the weekend and the demonstration announced for Sunday, June 7 at 11 a.m., the merchants did not want to take any risks and almost the entire Saint Catherine Street was barricaded with plywood planks. Some wealthier merchants, such as Apple, decided to increase their protection and cover their entire shop window. On Friday, Apple had only covered half of its window but on Saturday, they completed up to the roof... 
Personally, I'm not a big fan of demonstrations and I went on Saturday to my favourite bookseller, INDIGO, to plan my Sunday. The book of the hour, which I recommend: STAR TREK PICARD. A science fiction novel that reminds us both of our Coronavirus 2020 crisis and of the destructive manifestations that North America has been experiencing for more than a week. 
Happy Sunday!
