The register is open today till 7 p.m. at city hall for people from Ville-Marie or Plateau Mont-Royal to sign so that there should be a referendum on the enlargement of Molson Stadium.

Projet Montréal lists three good arguments against: the project is asking for $23 million in public funds, would draw a lot more people and noise into the residential area east of McGill, and would damage the fragile ecosystem of Mount Royal. All this to support a professional sports team that interests relatively few of us. Go sign that book if you live nearby – there's even a bus navette set up to make it easier to get to city hall (see the article).
