his Sunday, June 11 will see a mass bike ride going from St. Jacques Street in NDG to the Southwest borough to demonstrate the need for a bicycle/pedestrian bridge linking the two

places. Advocates want to see such a bridge reinstated in the Turcot Highway reconstruction plans.

“This green bridge (“Dalle-Parc” in French) was promised by former Quebec Transport Minister Sam Hamad in 2010,” says Lisa Mintz, one of the event organizers. “The front page of The Gazette in November 10, 2010 shows very clearly that it is included in the Turcot project,” she said.

Cyclists on the June 11 ride, to get over Highway 20 and the CN train tracks, will have to either go through Westmount or St. Pierre with a distance of 7km. But if there were a green bridge connecting the two, the cycling or walking distance would be be reduced to less than 1km with no road cross-

ings.

“After being solemnly promised by Hamad, this bridge then mysteriously disappeared from the Turcot plans,” relates Mintz.

“We hope to make a statement with lots of people coming out to show that they want this bridge. Highways make it easier for motorists, but are very significant transportation barriers for cyclists and pedestrians.”

Behind Mintz is a coalition of 57 community groups ranging from the Conseil régional environnement (CRE) to Velo Quebec to Equiterre to Revitalization St. Pierre to groups of architects and doctors. They point out that the $40 million bridge represents only about one percent of the total $3.8 billion Turcot

reconstruction project.

Echoing this concern is Robert “Bicycle Bob” Silverman who has advocated for cycling infrastructure since the 1970s, but is not part of the coalition.

Montreal city council is also pushing for the bridge; in April Southwest borough councillor Craig Sauvé presented a motion calling on the province to reinstate the bridge; that motion was passed unanimously.

“I met with the current Transport Minister, Laurent Lessard last week at the National Assembly,”

said Mintz.“He did not say Ministry to something to 'no' to the bridge . I get help people who walk and the impression, however, ride bicycles.” that Mr Lessard will be watching how many people turn out for our June Sunday, June 11 Cyclist 11 event.”

11 Critical home inspection traps to be aware of weeks before listing your home for sale

MONTREAL - According to industry experts, there are over 33 physical problems that will come under scrutiny during a home inspection when your home is for sale. A new report has been prepared which identifies the eleven most common of these problems, and what you should know about them before you list your home for sale.

Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identified and dealt with, any of these 11 items could cost you dearly in terms of repair.

That's why it's critical that you read this report before you list your home.

If you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse, turn

prospective buyers away altogether.

In most cases, you can make a reasonable pre- inspection yourself if you know what you're looking for, and knowing what you're looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into costly and unmanageable ones.

To help home sellers deal with this issue before their homes are listed, a free report entitled "11 Things You Need to Know to Pass Your Home Inspection" has been compiled which explains the issues involved.

To order a FREE Special Report, visit: www.montrealinspectionpitfalls.com Get your free special report NOW to learn how to ensure a home inspection doesn't cost you the sale of your home.

Mont-Royal street - Montreal

MONTREAL - Mont-Royal Avenue has been in existence since the 1800s. It was at its commercial peak in the 1950s. Thanks to its tramway, and many stores and venues, it was considered to be equal to SteCatherine street in terms of its commercial importance. Major street repairs occurred in 1959 and lasted long enough to cause the beginning of a twenty year period of decline and unpopularity.

Animal cruelty needs tougher penalties

R

By Bonnie Wurst mtltimes.ca

ecently, the horrific abuse of an animal, a dog, made the headlines again. Rescuers called him 'Sugar Ray', because he was fighting for his life and was also a Boxer.

On Tuesday May 23rd, Sugar Ray was found buried alive in a shallow grave in a field in SaintPaul-d'Abbotsford, QC. The man who owns the land where he was discovered, was walking around when he heard a dog crying and whimpering. At first he could not see anything, but he followed the cries and to his horror, saw a paw sticking out of the ground - and immediately called the police.

The Monteregie SPCA, whose care he was placed in said they believe Sugar

• June 10, 2017

Ray had been hit with a blunt object, possibly even strangled before he was left for dead. He was otherwise a perfectly healthy dog.

By the next morning he was eating and drinking on his own, but still not able to walk.

Unfortunately later in the day, Sugar Ray suffered a seizure and heart attack and he died. They believe his heart attack was brought on by the trauma he faced.

The next day, a man in his 40's turned himself in to the police in connection with the incident. He was questioned and then released - but could be issued a summons once they receive the results from the necropsy. With the evidence, the Crown will decide what and if any charges will be laid. Until then, the identity of the suspect cannot be made public.

To date, the details are not known or if the man is responsible for the incident. But if he had been under the same suspicion of abuse and murder of a human, would he have been released simply on a promise to appear in court?

The abuse of an animal is a crime. One who abuses an animal is a criminal - and a convic-

tion could come with a maximum of five years behind bars. There are Federal and Provincial legislations in place which allow organizations to enforce the provisions of the respective Criminal Codes.

Here are a few important elements from the much longer and detailed document of Canada's Animal Cruelty/Criminal Code Act (you can read the Act in its entirety see link below): Causing Unnecessary Suffering - 445.1 (1) Every one commits an offence who - (a) willfully causes or, being the owner, willfully permits to be caused

unnecessary pain, suffering or injury to an animal or a bird; (c) willfully, without reasonable excuse, administers a poisonous or an injurious drug or substance to a domestic animal or bird or an animal or a bird wild by nature that is kept in captivity or, being the owner of such an animal or a bird, willfully permits a poisonous or an injurious drug or substance to be administered to it.

Punishment - (2) Every one who commits an offence under subsection (1) is guilty of; (a) an indictable offence and liable

to imprisonment for a term of not more than five years.

Causing damage or injury - 446 (1) Every one commits an offence who - (a) by willful neglect causes damage or injury to animals or birds while they are being driven or conveyed; or (b) being the owner or the person having the custody or control of a domestic animal or a bird or an animal or a bird wild by nature that is in captivity, abandons it in distress or willfully neglects or fails to provide suitable and adequate food, water, shelter and

care for it.

Order of prohibition or restitution - 447.1 (1) The court may, in addition to any other sentence that it may impose under (other subsections), (a) make an order prohibiting the accused from owning, having the custody or control of or residing in the same premises as an animal or a bird during any period that the court considers appropriate but, in the case of a second or subsequent offence, for a minimum of five years. continued on Page 10

Valérie Plante - The next Mayor of Montreal?

ontreal's next municipal elections will be held this autumn - and Équipe Denis Coderre is certain to have a challenge on their hands. The greatest challenge will come from Valérie Plante who won the Projet Montréal leadership race last December. And she is not to be taken lightly. In fact, she has been watching and lis-

By Bonnie Wurst mtltimes.ca

tening to Montrealers hopes and frustrations and she is sharp.

When Mayor Coderre took office in November of 2013, his constituents had high hopes. He loved the city and had big plans for it, he was out there participating in all types of events with the people, he took action, was spontaneous and not afraid to speak his mind, he loved photo ops - and he loved the Habs. But the romance soon faded to a pale shade of… orange cone. As long as his projects were in line with what Montrealers actually wanted and needed, the romance was strong.

But when it wasn't in line, and in spite of most people not agreeing with him and protesting en masse, he bulldozed forth with his plans anyhow.

Projet Montréal, the official opposition party now under the leadership of Valérie Plante, might be what Montrealers want and perhaps should have.

They are working as a unified team and have even changed the party's name to 'Projet Montréal Équipe Valérie Plante'.

Plante appears more grounded and actually in tune with citizens real needs and desires. But is she just like any other politician? Only time will tell. She doesn’t just stop for a good photo-op, but stops and listens, taking Montrealer's concerns to heart. Coderre on the other hand appears to listen, but it seems to literally go in one ear and out the other.

“The real work begins now,” Plante said when she won the leadership.

"Montreal now has a chance to 'break the glass ceiling' if it chooses to elect its first female mayor next year… it’s a huge ho-

nour and I have the intention of leading the team to victory in the next election by taking on Denis Coderre… every vote was important. I took nothing for granted.”

After their annual convention on May 28th, Projet Montréal revealed their election platform which included building a new metro line, dubbed the 'Pink Line Project', linking the Bonaventure station to Montreal North with connections to the Green, Blue and Orange lines.The estimated cost would be $6 billion, but their goal is to create a far more reliable system - something Montrealers would very much welcome. One of the proposals aimed at increasing ridership on public transport, is making buses and the metro free for children under the age of 12 (accompanied by an adult).

As well, party members were asked to come up with solutions to the city's social housing problems.

They also want to make city life a more attractive place for families to live instead of moving to the suburbs - and have proposed making it mandatory for every new housing development to include family-friendly homes of three rooms or more.

Plante also wants to focus on improving road safety for cyclists and pedestrians by studying locations where the problems are and where accidents have been occurring. She also plans to address the problems facing small businesses and commercial streets something Coderre has failed badly at.

The initiatives put forth

by Projet Montréal seem to resonate with what Montreal really needs right now and Valérie Plante is both inspired to do so and appears sincere - but trepidation over what is said and what is actually done by any politician nowadays needs to be taken with caution.

Under Mayor Denis Coderre, caution went to the wind. From his unpopular dangerous 'pit-bull type' bylaw where he ignored cries from dog owners and experts in the field, including the SPCA, telling him he got it all wrong, but he just rammed the bylaw through. There was the out of control spending on projects such as the over $700,000 Mordecai Richler gazebo and a city wide smelly garbage problem due to the new waste management program.

Never mind the close to $1 billion dollars spent on a party nobody really

wanted, except him.

Then came the major infrastructure work almost bringing the city to a halt. There is no doubt much of it was urgent, but not all of it at and not all at the same time. Instead we will live in permanent gridlock and noise for several more years to come.

Potholes remain unfilled, people are going hungry and living on the streets but paving over a 2.75kilometre route of downtown Montreal streets for an electric Formula E race

www.mtltimes.ca

- at an estimated cost of $24 million, seems to be more of a priority. The list could go on and on. Granite stumps anyone?

“Some of the things I hear a lot when I talk to Montrealers, they’re tired of feeling like they’ve been taken for granted,” Plante said in a CTV report.

“They want us, politicians, to listen to what they have to say.”

Coderre's response was in line with the attitude he has taken on, “My response is, have a great

day… the most important thing for me is the people, it’s not about the adversary. The pride is back and people are fed up of people confronting each other.”

It remains to be seen who is more delusional at this point.

Where do you stand on these issues? Do you feel it's time for a change at City Hall? Are you willing to give 'Projet Montréal Équipe Valérie Plante' a chance?

The Oxford online dictionary defines a 'Human Being' as 'A man, woman, or child of the species Homo sapiens, distinguished from other animals by superior mental development, power of articulate speech, and upright stance'. Sentient animals are defined as 'beings that have a physical and psychological sensibility, which allows them, in the same way as humans, to experience pain and pleasure.

The major difference in definitions is that human beings are supposed to have 'superior mental development' - yet it is humans who have been slowly destroying the planet and creating divisions. One cannot help to question if the definition of 'Human Being' needs to be updated.

Should animal abusers get jail time equal to that of the Criminal Code for humans? Should they be put on a public registry similar to how sex offenders are registered? Please share your thoughts with the Montreal Times and our readers. info@mtltimes.ca

“I used to be a prosperous business manager, but recently had to move back to my mother's place. Mom is great, but I don't want to overstay my welcome there and would like to be paying my own rent sometime soon.”

Facebook photos to get an idea of what they looked like. There was a photo to base the painting on, but the two girls did not have makeup and one of them had wet hair. So I effectively 'tidied' the girls up for the painting. When the three kids saw it, there was only one criticism from one of them and I retouched that.”

The “whimsical” aspect of paintings means that departed friends or members of the family can be included in a portrait against a background of the client's choosing. Portigal mentions recently painting someone who uses a neck rest, but por-

traying him without it. “If customers want something exactly like a photo, I recommend that they use a camera.”

She also works on picture boards where customers can visualize a future that they want and have Portigal paint it. “I have a customer who loves the beach and imagined herself living in a house beside the sea with a lighthouse and sailboat in the background. After I painted her that image, she bought a waterfront house in Panama and moved into her vision.” . “I do a lot of out-oftown work, but offer some advantages for local

clients. For instance, I can do house calls in the Montreal area to meet customers at their homes,” says Portigal. “But all painting is done at my studio.”

Portigal's paintings typically range in size from 12” by 16” to 30” by 48”; she can sometimes deliver a painting within a month about 6 weeks.

Her prices start at $550 for a small painting.

or the past 33 years Mr. Bike Man through Sun Youth has celebrated his birthday by giving children new bicycles, this year he turns 92. On June 7th, 83 youngsters were rewarded with new bicycles, locks and helmets for being a positive force in the community or for being courageous in an emergency situation.

Mr. Bike Man is an anonymous donor who wishes to honor these young people, so that they can serve as an example to others from their generation. Since the beginning of the year, the members of Sun Youth’s Bike Committee have received hundreds of applications for the giveaway, many of which tell wonderful stories about amazing youths. Whether they’ve saved lives, made small gestures for the environment, supported those living in difficult situations, overcome illness or helped their community through volunteerism and fundraising, these youngsters demonstrate the importance of the existence of the program.

the spinal column out.The spine holds the master nervous system, which is the most important part of the body.

People experience pain they are unaware of which causes stress which in turn causes countless other symptoms (sickness, mental illness, breathing problems, heart failure, etc.).

Prevention is superior to treatment. If you have pain and want to tough it out, something deeper may be at play. We must learn to treat the cause, not the symptoms.

Each vertebral bone is attached to nerves which send the signals to everything else in the body.

When the spine is aligned, the nervous system works better, all the internal organs perform their functions at optimum level.

As a chiropractor, I cannot say I have ever healed anyone of anything. What I do is make a specific spinal adjustment to remove the nerve pressure, and the body responds by healing itself. The body is naturally capable of doing so. We get tremendous results.

So pamper yourself. If you are experiencing pain and have not yet seen a chiropractor, it may be time to start considering it. Chiropractic care is affordable and fortunately covered by most major private insurance providers.

DEDICATED TO ENDING YOUR PAIN AND HELPING YOU REACH YOUR HIGHEST POTENTIAL. “ As a doctor, I am dedicated to reducing and eliminating your pinched nerves. I have seen too many people suffer endlessly from leg and lower back pain. Enough is enough! Whether you’ve hurt yourself over the week-end or in an accident, or you’ve been suffering for years, we are here to help you find lasting relief…without drugs or surgery.

Meet Sir Wagner the Canine Clown

Sir Wagner is a seven-yearold Cockapoo, a mix between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, who lives with François and Meyer in Lasalle. 'Wag' as they like to call him, is also somewhat of a clown.

"Wag keeps us laughing since the day we brought him home as a puppy.

Whenever he wanted attention, he would roll along the floor, tangling himself up in his little blanket and kind of unwinding again, giving out a little bark, then wagging his tail and staring at us until we responded.

We named him Sir Wagner because of how often and how fast he wags his tail," said François.

Sir Wagner is very good with kids and that is a good thing as Meyer has two children from a previous marriage who spend time with them most weekends.

"When we are at the park,Wag chases every ball, Frisbee or stick that is thrown - whether it was meant for him or not. If he gets the ball first, he either brings it to the dog it was thrown for or right back to And 'Wag' likes to clown the owner… and that's around with them as well. when he does his funny "When Meyer's kids are clown thing.
