    Catholic Action March 2021 - Newsletter Sharing the Good News A NOTE to Members We hope you are enjoying the community stories about different people in our faith community. Do you have a story to share? Tell us about your parish or maybe a project you are working on. Do you know a good Samaritan? Drop us a line and we will gladly include it in our newsletter. Stay safe and God Bless! Meet Father Scott Two Parishes, Two Languages, One Pastor On September 1, Father Timothy Scott, CSB officially assumed responsibility as pastor of the English-language St. Gabriel’s Catholic Church and of the French-language Église St Charles. Serving as pastor of more than one community comes with its challenges, but this appointment has the added layer of being conducted in two languages. “I had an upcoming funeral that I thought would be in French, but when I checked I realized it was for a member of the English community. When the parishes are sharing the same space and there is one secretary, I need to check in which language the service is to be held. It keeps me on my toes,” he said. The two parishes stand side-by-side in Montreal, Auxiliary Bishop Alain Faubert approached him about serving as pastor of both communities; he was appointed with a four-year mandate. In September, parishioners of St. Gabriel’s were notified that their church would need to close due to structural issues with renovations to be undertaken in the spring. In the meantime, both parishes are celebrating Mass at St-Charles.

    An Innovative Model, an Integrated Network

    RÉSEAU ÉLECTRIQUE MÉTROPOLITAIN An innovative model, an integrated network / Presentation of the #ProjetREM cdpqinfra.com THE REM: A PROJECT WITH IMPACT The REM is a fully automated, electric light rail transit (LRT) system, made up of 67 km of dedicated rail lines, with 50% of the tracks occupying existing rail corridors and 30% following existing highways. The REM will include four branches connecting downtown Montréal, the South Shore, the West Island, the North Shore and the airport, resulting in two new high-frequency public transit service lines to key employment hubs. A team of close to 400 experts is contributing to this project, ensuring well-planned, efficient and effective integration with the other transit networks. All sorts of elements are being considered, including the REM’s integration into the urban fabric and landscape, access to stations and impacts on the environment. Based on the current planning stage, the REM would become the fourth largest automated transit network in the world, with 27 stations, 13 parking facilities and 9 bus terminals, in addition to offering: • frequent service (every 3 to 12 minutes at peak times, depending on the stations), 20 hours a day (from 5:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m.), 7 days a week; • reliable and punctual service, through the use of entirely dedicated tracks; • reduced travel time through high carrying capacity and rapid service; • attention to user safety and security through cutting-edge monitoring; • highly accessible stations (by foot, bike, public transit or car) and equipped with elevators and escalators to improve ease of travel for everyone; • flexibility to espondr to increases in ridership, with the possibility of having trains pass through stations every 90 seconds.

    Downtown Montreal: a Major Metropolitan Development Issue

    Downtown Montreal: A Major Metropolitan Development Issue Brief of the Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal Concerning the Vocation of Downtown Montreal Commission du développement économique et du Centre des affaires September 2003 A brief description of the Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal The Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal boasts some 7,000 members. Its primary mission is to represent the interests of the Greater Montreal business community and to play an active and responsible role in promoting the economic development of the urban agglomeration. Bolstered by its three specialized service branches (Info entreprises, the Electronic Commerce Institute and World Trade Centre Montréal) serving merchants and businesses of all sizes across Quebec, the Board of Trade is the largest private organization in Quebec dedicated to economic development. Introduction Strategic planning for downtown development: a critical issue for the economic development of metropolitan Montreal The Board of Trade is pleased to respond to the invitation of the Commission du développement économique et du Centre des affaires to share its thoughts and outlook on the development of Montreal’s Business district. Given that over the next few months the City will be working on a “strategic plan for bsiness district development,” the Board of Trade believes that holding a preliminary brainstorming session on the issues pertaining to this sector is very relevant indeed. In this vein, the Board of Trade is presenting in this brief its initial reflections, which it deems important for the future of Montreal’s core, i.e. both the downtown and the business district. That said, the Board of Trade would also like to underscore the tremendous importance it places on the need for a strategic development plan for Montreal’s core.

    Welcome to the Student Survival Guide

    Welcome to the Student Survival Guide Various generations of Art History and Communications students have over the years assembled and refined this guide to help new students get acquainted with the city and smooth their transition to a new institution. We update this every few years to include things we have learned about negotiating this fair city of ours. For those more familiar with the city, we hope it’s a nice diversion for you nonetheless. This “Student Survival Guide” contains some of the things we wished someone had told us early on in our tenure. It was produced completely by Art History and Communications students and is totally biased to the tastes and travels of the individuals involved. We hope you find it useful and fun to read and consider what might be missing so you can add your own pearls of wisdom when the time comes around in another year or so. Cheers!
