“Sans” ma voiture becomes a joke
Le Devoir notes that this year’s car-free week is becoming something of a joke as the downtown area actually closed to cars has become smaller and the cross streets will remain open. A few boroughs will close parts of streets for one day as part of the event, but the streets closed by Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension and Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie are so minor that hardly anyone is going to notice the gesture. Rue Greenshields, forsooth.

Transport Quebec has ironically done more to organize a car-free year than the “car-free day” organizers ever managed to achieve.
