Montréal

Did you guys realise we had a tornado touch down on the fleuve?

On the news

Wow!

Hi Montrealers!

Quick question, where can I find wood chips for BBQ smoking. Like hickory or apple wood chips. At the grocery store? Rona? Maybe I'm not looking in the correct section...

Thanks!! 

I know this is a longshot but...

What kind of salary would one expect from a medium to large sized law firm, for working as a paralegal in a specialist field?

This is a job interacting with clients and government offices via email and telephone in order to assist in the preparation, submission and approval of the client's governmental licensing applications in a specific field.

In order to do this, one must have a bachelor's degree and type 50+wpm, in addition to the knowledge to perform the above duties.

I'm looking for a general ballpark. I mean I know it's not 70K, but surely that's worth more than 30K, no?

Thanks for any help you can give.

Hi,
I'm a journalist from Toronto and I'm trying to find a few good story ideas in Montreal.
I'm looking for ongoing issues or problems happening in the city or cool things that people are doing.  And especially stuff that hasn't really been talked about in the news already.

I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks!

This Sunday is Scrabble time again, and if this rain lets up it will be outside in the park. (First time this year!) The twist is, it will be a different park - we're going to move to Parc Wilfred-Laurier, which is at Laurier and Mentana. Why the change? Parc Wilfred-Laurier has picnic tables, so hopefully we won't have to sit on the ground.

If it's still raining (boo!) Scrabble will be at Divan Orange, as usual.

Where: If sunny: Parc Wilfred-Laurier; if raining: Divan Orange
When: Sunday, July 27, at 3:00
What: Scrabble! Newcomers of all skill levels are welcome! Play in English or French!

Bring some food and drink and we'll make a picnic out of it! Bring a Scrabble board if you have one, just in case we're overwhelmed with people! Bring something to sit on (blankets, lawn chairs) just in case somebody's stolen the picnic tables! But mainly, bring your love of language!
