  • The Montreal Forum: the Final Season?
    Palimpsest III: The Dialectics of Montreal’s Public Spaces Department of Art History, Concordia University The Montreal Forum: The Final Season? Rob Coles September 2010 Cynthia I. Hammond, ed. Palimpsest III: The Dialectics of Montreal’s Public Spaces Coles 1 As a site of identity for the multiple affiliations of the people of Montreal, the Montreal Forum represents much more than a hockey arena. Between 1924 and 1996, the Forum hosted thousands of events, from professional hockey, to rock concerts, circus performances, religious gatherings, professional wrestling and events of the 1976 Summer Olympics. In 1996 the Montreal Canadiens Hockey Club, the main occupants of the site, moved from the Forum to the Molson (now Bell) Centre. After the departure of the Canadiens was announced, many Montreal residents feared that the Forum would be destroyed. A huge public outcry to save the building ensued. The Forum was ultimately saved and transformed into an entertainment complex called the Pepsi Forum that incorporated some memorabilia from the site’s history into its design. With this attempt to keep the local affect of the Forum alive in mind, this essay asks why so many were opposed to the demolition of the Forum? Was the adaptive re-use of the Forum successful in capturing the essential and important aspects of the building for its fans? The Montreal Forum was a key site of expression and identity in Montreal not only for supporters of the Canadiens hockey team. For the city’s francophone population and fans of popular music, the Forum was also important. As this essay demonstrates, while the Pepsi Forum includes memorabilia in its interior design, important connections between the Forum and the rise of Quebec nationalism are only summarily represented, as is the impact of the Forum as a key music venue in Montreal; the “Forum Gallery”, a small museum located on the second floor of the building, is out of the view and spatial experience of most visitors today.

  • LE CHEMIN DU ROY (1Re Partie)
    ENTRETIEN LE CHEMIN DU ROY (1re partie) Au début de la colonie, il n’existait pas de réseau routier, mis à part quelques sentiers, tels ce chemin de bois, dit grande allée ou grande ligne, qui reliait dès 1650 la pointe ouest du Cap-aux-Diamants et Cap-Rouge1. Pour se déplacer, on utilisa d’abord la route fluviale, puis des chemins de grève, tracés sur terre battue à 12 mètres environ en deçà de la ligne des plus hautes marées, conformément à cette ordonnance du Conseil souverain, datée du 13 mai 1665 : …il est nécessaire que les clotures… soient… apposées à deux perches au dessus des plus haultes marées… pour la liberté tant du passage des charrettes et bestiaux que de la navigation. Enjoinct à toutes personnes de reformer celles qui sont plus que les dites deux perches… à peyne de tout despens d’hommages et intérests et mesmes d’amendes… Durant plus de 80 ans, des charrettes tirées par des bœufs puis des chevaux franchiront ces routes rudimentaires, ancêtres du chemin royal. Nous ne croyons pas faire fausse route en prétendant, comme plusieurs auteurs, que l’actuelle route 138 sur la rive nord du fleuve suit, dans son ensemble, le parcours original du chemin du Roy, sauf lorsqu’on a dû bifurquer par l’intérieur des terres. À l’origine, cette voie de communication fut entreprise sous l’impulsion de quelques grands voyers, à qui fut conférée la charge des voies publiques. LES GRANDS VOYERS L’office de grand voyer est attribué en 1657 par la Compagnie des Cent-Associés à René Robineau (de Bécancour).

  • Spiritual Gastronomy in Québec
    SPIRITUAL GASTRONOMY TOUR The Province of Québec1 is the largest province in Canada and the second-most populous province of Canada, after Ontario. It is the only one to have a predominantly French- speaking population, with French as the sole provincial official language. Most inhabitants live in urban areas near the Saint Lawrence River between Montréal and Québec City, the capital. The name "Québec", which comes from the Algonquin word kébec meaning "where the river narrows". The history of Québec dates as far back as the discovery of Canada itself. It was indeed on her soil that Jacques Cartier, the envoy of the king of France, landed for the first time in 1534. Since the earliest days of New France in the 17th century, religion and public demonstrations of faith have been a vital aspect of Québec society. The conversion of the Amerindians and the spread of Catholicism throughout North America played a key role in the growth of this initially French and later British colony. Today, this centuries-old tradition is reflected in numerous places of worship, the guardians of Québec’s religious and cultural heritage. The province of Québec counts: 20 Roman Catholic cathedrals 19 Dioceses 4 National Shrines of Canada 2018 64 parishes 1995 269 parishes 2018 228 churches belong to parishes ▪ 46 churches were sold. 12 alienated churches belong to municipalities. ▪ 4 churches are closed to worship and ready to be sold. Since 1980 ▪ 8 churches are considered surplus to the cult ▪ 1 church destroyed by fire. 2018 14 000 priests, nuns 1961 more than 60 000 And we can go on with more information.
