I made a musical travelogue of my home town. Lived there 1950 to 1967 and 1989 to the present.

Montreal West: Home of the Humpback Bridge!

You have scoundrels and crooks in La Belle? Who'd'a thunk it! >;-)

Gnu... ...not many in MTLW. There was a bank holdup around 1890, still the last major crime. A few years ago someone tried to rob Rocco the barber, but a kid in the local drug store saw it happening, ran out and tackled the thief.
Typical top news story... ..."Skunk seen on Westminster Ave."

Of course, in the rest of the Province, scoundrels and crooks run the show!
