Artificial turf for Rutherford Some Montreals say “Nay”

By Sergio Martinez mtltimes.ca

"Beginning 2017, around 36,000 young aged 10 and over, living in the VilleMarie Borough will have access to a multisport terrain equipped with artificial lighting. Located in the Rutherford Park, the multisport complex will cover an area of 9,670 square meters." That's what the press release says, and of course, the first reaction of the reader would be, "well, that's great, there is a need for sports facilities in the downtown area, so this is good news."

But wait, then comes the second paragraph: "An artificial turf has been favoured to allow the practice of soccer, football, rugby, lacrosse, and ultimate Frisbee." The communiqué then goes on defending the option: "Its capacity to stage games is 105 hours per week, against 15 hours per week in the case of a natural turf." I don't know where the City got these numbers from or whether they come from some serious study. The real reason, however, is not hard to find: the artificial turf is easier to maintain than a natural one, is cheaper if one considers the expenses in maintenance that a natural one requires. And, according to the City in response to some concerns: "In order to minimize the heating effects, thermoplastic par-

Of course, it is cheaper than real grass, and I guess that's the bottom line in the decision made by the Ville-Marie borough. But if going for something cheap is the only motivation, where

What's next: plastic flowers in public parks? They would also be cheaper, and no watering would be needed. Mayor Denis Coderre would have certainly fulfilled the expectations of the young graduate of the movie, but not the expectations of the neighbours in the area who deserve something better.

How to sell high: Avoid these three mistakes when selling your home

M

ontreal - When you decide to sell your home, setting your asking price is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Depending on how a buyer is made aware of your home, price is often the first thing he or she sees, and many homes are discarded by prospective buyers as not being in the appropriate price range before they're even given a chance of showing.

Your asking price is often your home's "first impression", and if you want to realize the most money you can for your home, it's imperative that you make a good first impression.

This is not as easy as it sounds, and pricing strategy should not be taken lightly. Pricing too high can be as costly to a home seller as pricing too low.

Taking a look at what homes in your neighborhood have sold for is only a small part of the process, and on it's own is not nearly enough to help you make the best decision.A recently study, which compiles 10 years of industry research, has resulted in a new special report entitled "Home sellers: How to Get the Price You Want( and Need)".This report will help you understand pricing strategy from three different angles. When taken together, this information will help you price your home to not only sell, but sell for the price you want.

Montreal Comiccon 2016 Montreal Mayor Coderre surrounded by a group of cosplay participants at Comiccon

I

By Stuart Nulman mtltimes.ca

f you were a fan or aficionado of comic books, super heroes, science fiction, video games, fantasy, animation or any other aspect of pop culture, then Montreal Comiccon was the place to be, as record crowds jammed the aisles of the Palais de Congres between July 8 and 10.

Basically, it was a virtual “kid-in-a-candy-store” setting, with a multitude of kiosks of various shapes and sizes offering fans and collectors everything from comic books (both classic and current), memorabilia, video games and video game accessories, collectibles, movie posters, trading cards, model kits, tshirts, hoodies and even authentic cosplay weapons (especially swords).

While strolling along the aisles of Montreal Comiccon throughout the entire three-day period, several things caught my attention.

First of all, the costumes. I was so impressed by the effort and attention to detail many of the Comiccon went through with their costumes, whether it be Batman, Superman, Darth Vader, the X-Men, Captain America, or anyone from the Star Wars or Star Trek universes. However, the one character whom I saw represented the most was Harley Quinn, the harlequin-like, mallet-wielding companion of the Joker who is the star of her own comic book and is going to be portrayed by Australian actress Margot Robbie in the upcoming “Suicide Squad” film that is going to be released on August 5.

Why is Harley Quinn so popular with female comic book fans?

“Harley Quinn is a cute bad girl, who is spontaneous, happy, but is a totally whacked-out character who is a little less dangerous than the Joker,” said Kyle, an employee at Labyrinth, a Toronto-based comic book and collectibles store.

Second, the autographs and photo ops. One thing is for sure, there is no shortage of Comiccon fans who • July 23, 2016

love to get an autograph of – or a photo with – one of their pop culture idols, and are determined to spend the time and money to get those celebrity signatures and photos. And this year’s line-up of celebrity appearances was quite an impressive one: William Shatner, Brent Spiner, Nichelle Nichols, Kate Mulgrew,Tom Felton from the Harry Potter movies (according to one source, when he appeared for his autograph session, he was greeting with loud screams similar to what greeted the Beatles more than 50 years ago), pro wrestlers Ric Flair and Eric Bischoff, Cary Elwes, Eliza Dushku, Billy Dee Williams and Alfonso Ribeiro, to name a few. I had the golden opportunity to join the foursome for a photo op with William Shatner on Friday afternoon. Shatner was friendly and amiable and wanted to have a brief chat with us; unfortunately, because of the high volume of fans who also purchased a photo op with the revered Captain Kirk, we had to be in and out of the area in a matter of seconds (but the photo came out quite nicely, I have to admit).

Third, the Q&A sessions.

Fans also got the chance to see many of these celebrities talk about the shows and movies that made them famous in a series of 45-minute Q&A sessions that took place in one of the Palais’ large conference rooms on the fifth floor. I managed to catch four of these sessions and here are my highlights:William Shatner offered fond memories of growing up in NDG (as part of the Marcil Street Gang), his weakness for Ruby Foo’s garlic spareribs, why Canadians like to say “not bad”, and his unlikely musical career (and announced he is going to release a Christmas album later this year); Kate Mulgrew, accompanied by her niece Isabel, gave a fulfilling , inspirational session and talked about how significant her role as Captain Janeway on “Star Trek: Voyager” was for female actors, and how she developed her Russian accent for the character of “Red” Reznikov on “Or-

ange is the New Black”; the bubbly, sassy Eliza Dushku spoke about one piece of advice Arnold Schwarzenegger gave her on the set of “True Lies”, one of her first onscreen appearances: “Don’t ever change your paternal name”; and Alfonso Ribeiro shared some great behindthe-scenes stories from “The Fresh Prince of Bel Air”, including his famous dance to Tom Jones’ hit “It’s Not Unusual”, and admitted that at first, he wasn’t a fan of his music, but grew to appreciate him when appeared on an episode of the show (“He is an incredible gentleman … but he now owes me a lot of money,” he jokingly added).

Finally, the merchandise.

It is impossible to go to Montreal Comiccon (or any other Comiccon across North America) and not leave without purchasing some sort of pop culture-type merchandise. In fact, the displays and kiosks were so eye catching, that you were automatically drawn to them and tempted to buy something to add to your collection, whatever that may be. For me, it’s t-shirts. And thanks to one vendor’s huge selection of shirts that represented Marvel, DC, movies and classic TV, I added two new t-shirts to my vast collection: Monty Python’s Flying Circus (featuring the Ministry of Silly Walks) and the 1966 Batman TV series logo. And then there’s all those comic books. As I was going from comic book kiosk to kiosk, I rifled through their stacks and found many of the DC and Marvel comic books (especially Batman and Howard the Duck) that I bought as a teenager for about 20 to 30 cents each (not to mention those special giantsized editions for $1) back in the 1970s. And as I saw the price tags for these books going for $20, $30 and as much as $60 each, my heart began to ache in retrospect, wishing that somehow I should have held onto those comic books and not relegate them to the garbage can.

Oh, well…..

Tired of the long waiting times in hospitals, CLSC or Clinics?

e all have a similar experience of long waiting times in Canadian public healthcare system. A recent report from Quebec's health and welfare commissioner says Quebec has the worst emergency room wait times in the western world. According to the report, 35% of ER patients in Quebec must wait more than 2 hours to be seen by a nurse and then another 2-3 hours to be seen by a doctor.

In Quebec, 10 -30 % of ER patients leave the hospital without having seen a doctor. Even if they finally saw the doctor, most

Closed “temporarily” in 2009...

otorists using the Mercier Bridge will have to contend with only one lane of traffic in each direction until the end of August, giving them the right to grumble. But cyclists and pedestrians have much more to complain about; the bike path closed in 2009, forcing a 35km detour for those travelling between LaSalle and the Mohawk community of Kahnawake.

“A multi-user path for the Mercier Bridge The Mercier Bridge rehabilitation project includes construction of a new 2.1km multi-user path for cyclists and pedestrians, situated on the west side of the bridge along the Châteauguay off-ramp...The path will allow pedestrian and cyclist access to the bridge by the end of roadwork scheduled for 2011," reads an obscure notice on the bridge website.

Each Sudoku puzzle consists of a 9x9 grid that has been subdivided into nine smaller grids of 3x3 squares. To solve the puzzle each row, column and box must contain each of the numbers 1 to 9. Puzzles come in three grades: easy, medium and difficult. Answer is on Page 21.

“First you asked a question about pedestrians and cyclist traffic on the Mercier Bridge and I responded that there isn’t any for reasons of security.”

We consulted with bicycle advocates, including Robert “Bicycle Bob” Silverman who worked to open the Jacques Cartier Bridge to cyclists and pedestrians in the 1970s.

Silverman cynically wonders if the Mercier bike/pedestrian path closure is supposed, "To keep the Mohawks out of LaSalle."

The Times got back to Bensadoun with this who responded, “Regarding the racist motive, I am not sure I understand where you want to go with this.

The sole priority of the MTQ is to assure safe transport of people and goods. No other motive influences our decisions.”

There was an ugly confrontation with the Quebec government in 1990 when Mohawks closed Mercier Bridge completely for about 48 days; does “bad blood” still linger from that time?

Just For Laughs - Talking to three of the Mega Stars of Comedy

O

Lewis Black, Iliza Shlesinger and JB Smoove

By Stuart Nulman mtltimes.ca

n the evening of Saturday, July 30, the stage of Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier of Place des Arts will belong to the stars … the Mega Stars of Comedy, to be exact.

Starting at 7 p.m., the Just For Laughs festival will present a gala with a line-up filled with some of the brightest international stars in comedy over the past 15 years, who have carved out large-scale careers in comedy on the club circuit, TV, movies, and cable specials, as well as in past Just For Laughs festivals. They include Canada’s own Gerry Dee, Greg Proops from the U.S., Dave Hughes from Australia and Danny Bhoy from Scotland.

Over the course of an afternoon earlier this week, I managed to conduct a series of whirlwind phone interviews with three of the comics who are scheduled to perform at the Mega Stars Gala (who are also JFL veterans): Lewis Black, Iliza Shlesinger and JB Smoove. *** I hooked up with veteran comic Lewis Black at his New York City home, as he was watching live coverage of the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, in particular, the moment when presidential nominee Donald Trump made his grand arrival into the city.

“I love Montreal, it’s a great city. So this year, in the event that Trump does get elected president and I need to get out of the U.S., I am going to ask you Canadians to help us out,” he said. “Maybe you can sneak in and just vote him out, because there are some states that are happy if just anyone shows up and votes.”

And while we’re on the subject of Canada and Canadians, Black is pleased about Justin Trudeau’s election as prime minister, especially after what Canadians went through with 10 years of Stephen Harper and his brand of conservatism.

“I also liked when the first Trudeau was prime minister with Maggie.

Now how good was that?

With those two, it was like Canada hit the nail on the head,” he said.

But now, back to the presidential election. During our conversation, • July 23, 2016

Black was getting into his familiar, angry ranting self when he said the biggest problem during the Obama administration

Lewis Black

was that Congress was doing absolutely nothing, as they discussed issue after issue without any sense of compromise, which he found quite frustrating.

“In this election, you got a crank going up against someone who is always cranky; two candidates with the lowest trust levels ever in my lifetime, and they’re being nominated for the highest office in the land,” he remarked.

“This is beyond my comprehension. I don’t know if I’ll be able to make it to the end of the campaign.

They’ll probably find me lying on the sidewalk of some city in the Midwest drooling.”

And if you want to hear more of Lewis Black’s ranting takes on the presidential election and other relevant issues of the day, then also check out his solo performance on July 27 at Theatre Maisonneuve, as part of his Naked Truth Tour. *** Iliza Shlesinger, the Dallas native who was the winner of season six of NBC’s “Last Comic Standing” reality competition series, is a true JFL veteran, marking her fourth time performing at the festival, and marvels how Montreal audiences are true comedy fans.

“Montreal is a cosmopolitan city, and Montreal audiences who come see Just For Laughs shows are true comedy fans. They come to fill the many clubs and venues to catch good comedy, and not just go for the drinks,” she said.

Shlesinger developed her comedy chops first in her native Dallas as part of the Comedy Sportz Dallas troupe, and then when she studied film at Emerson College in Boston, where she joined the campus comedy group Jimmy’s Travelling All Stars, before going west to L.A. to pursue a

career in comedy. “I was always really funny, and I knew I could be funny for a living,” she said. “It was the only option I had, be-

Just For Laughs: James Mullinger to preview autobiographical film July 29 quences using my actual stand-up material, it was just amazing.”

Filming took place last summer over a period of six weeks – first for a week at last year’s Just For Laughs festival, and then in Britain for the remaining five weeks – in which during the Montreal shoot, Buckley’s character interviews some of his favorite comics, including Jimmy Carr, Gilbert Gottfried, Mike Wilmot, Brendan

Burns, Mike Ward and Derek Seguin.

“Practically all of those interviews for the film were improvised. And because Buckley got some improvisation skills while working on a Judd Apatow film beforehand, he just didn’t stop improvising. As a result, we got some of the film’s funniest lines from those interview segments,” he said.

And Mullinger’s decision to have an exclusive preview of the film at Just For

Laughs prior to its UK premiere is his way of expressing his gratitude to the festival for helping towards the success of the scenes they shot there last year.

“The festival has been so good to us, and there is no better place to come do, write, perform, produce and love comedy than at Just For Laughs. I adore this festival so much,” he said. continued on Page 14
