Geoff Molson President, Owner and CEO Club De Hockey Canadien

OUTLINE For close to a full year, now, the world has come to realize in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic what should have been clear to everyone for far longer: that true heroes aren’t deﬁ ned by superpowers or stories told in movies or comic books. True heroes are all around us, demonstrating each day humanity, service to others, and tireless efforts to do their part to help the best they can, however they can, in the face of monumental challenge. So many faces have emerged to touch and inspire us all with the work they have done to care for com- plete strangers throughout an uncertain time and unprecedented health crisis. Doctors, nurses, workers providing essential services, and others on the front lines have proven time and again to be heroes de- serving of our utter respect and appreciation, so it is why we are writing you today to demonstrate just a small measure of our collective thanks for your continuing efforts. The Montreal Canadiens, in proud partnership with IGA, would like to formally invite you and members of your immediate family to be the sole attendees at an upcoming Canadiens game at the Bell Centre. You will have the comfort of a luxury suite to yourself in a safe and secure environment, and around the game it would be our honor to salute your work both on our digital channels and in-broadcast. In addition to living this very unique experience, IGA would like to offer you $1,000 in groceries redeemable at any of their stores. It is our absolute privilege to host you in our “Hero Suite” in the coming weeks. We look forward to hear- ing you and your family cheer on our Canadiens as loud as you can – in this unique setting, the players will be certain to hear and appreciate your voice as much as they appreciate everything you’ve done and continue to do in our community. With thanks, Geoff Molson Carl Pichette President, Owner and CEO Vice-President, Marketing Club de hockey Canadien, Sobeys Bell Centre and evenko .

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.
