VISIT PROGRAMME 28 Montreal Intercultural Profile This report is based upon the visit of the Council of Europe’s expert team on 13 and 14 May 2019 comprising Ivana d’Alessandro and Daniel de Torres. It should be read in parallel with the Council of Europe’s response to Montreal ICC Index questionnaire1, which contains many recommendations and pointers to examples of good practice. 1. Introduction Montréal is located in Québec province, south-eastern Canada. With 1,704,694 inhabitants (2016) it is the second most-populous city in the country. At 365 km2, the city of Montreal occupies about three-fourths of Montréal Island (Île de Montréal), the largest of the 234 islands of the Hochelaga Archipelago, one of three archipelagos near the confluence of the Ottawa and St. Lawrence rivers. The city was founded in 1642 by European settlers in view to establish a Catholic missionary community on Île de Montréal. It was to be called Ville-Marie, after the Virgin Mary. Its current name comes from Mount Royal, the triple-peaked hill in the heart of the city. From the time of the confederation of Canada (1867), Montréal was the largest metropolitan centre in the country until it was overtaken by Toronto in the ‘70s.

Cultural Committee This creative vigor is embodied in the Maison des Métiers d’Art, where we are Franco Cologni dedicated to enriching a precious heritage and preserving forgotten crafts. Stanislas de Quercize In transmitting rare and select skills to a new generation of designers and Arielle Dombasle jewelers, our goal is to perpetuate the artisanal expertise of today, a legacy of Lord Douro exceptional craftsmanship that has been handed down from one generation to Hugues Gall another. This vitality at work, realized through exchange and interaction, brings together heritage, beauty, innovation and creative inspiration. And, as we will Daniela Giussani see in this issue of Cartier Art, for many art historians, architects and linguists Franceline Prat vitality is the necessary impulse for creation. And, undeniably, vitality is a Agatha Ruiz de la Prada movement toward the other. A dynamic for the future.

  • The Notre-Dame Street Overpass Sidewalk: from Bill Vazan's
    Palimpsest III: The Dialectics of Montreal’s Public Spaces Department of Art History, Concordia University The Notre-Dame Street Overpass Sidewalk: From Bill Vazan’s Highway #37 to Today Philippe Guillaume September 2010 Cynthia I. Hammond, and Anja Bock, eds. Palimpsest III: The Dialectics of Montreal’s Public Spaces An already-made geography sets the stage, while the willful making of history dictates the action …1 The sidewalk plays a fundamental role as a place of transit in the modern city, as well as being a space of sensorial experience. A specific walkway can represent aesthetic change across generations while, nonetheless, eliciting sensory experiences where the pedestrian’s feeling of safety is axiomatic. Such a space is seen in a photograph that is part of Montreal artist Bill Vazan’s conceptual project Highway #37, created in 1970. Detail 151 (Fig. 1), a black and white photograph, illustrates an eastward view of Notre-Dame Street taken from the southern sidewalk along the Notre-Dame Street overpass, a viaduct that spans over the old Dalhousie and Viger stations rail-yards. This is a historic locus linked to travel: this epic street exits Old Montreal towards the eastern part of the island. On today’s maps it spans between Berry and St-Christophe streets. When viewed through Vazan’s framing, this cityscape still serves as a striking palimpsest of the city’s modernist past, where, formally, the sidewalk encompasses all the elements associated with a safe space for pedestrian travel. A comparative view of the landscape seen in Vazan’s photograph between the time it was made and the present further enriches the narrative of this place, which nowadays sits on the cusp of the city’s salient tourist space, Old Montreal.

Its tremendous breadth and depth are the fruit of careful work on the part of the many experts consulted, along with the active participation of residents, associations and institutions, all of them equally concerned that it should include specifi c measures to protect and enhance the Mountain. I am convinced that the measures in the Plan will make Mount Royal one of the fi nest natural and heritage sites on the continent. There will be many challenges as we continue to work toward this goal, and the Plan has the advantage of identifying them clearly: protecting and upgrading natural habitats that are especially sensitive because they are in the heart of the city; preserving and restoring the built heritage and, fi nally, maintaining and enhancing landscapes and views. Gérald Tremblay Meeting these goals calls for a wide variety of actions – from day-to-day vigilance Mayor of Montréal to moving forward with long-term strategic projects. One of the strengths of the Plan is in fact its detailed description of the means for pursuing all of these goals.
