It’s so not Canadian behaviour, attitude.

Merry Christmas to you and yours, Jack. Wishing you best health in the new year.

I also took those two TGVs, plus one in China. The Shinkansen (bullet train) is the best…. roomy, quiet (Japanese culture) and clean. It’s the best way to travel.

"Barely legal age"? Either you are or are not of legal age. Give me a break.

I am retired, have a car and do not "need" public transport. Many in Montreal must use the bus and metro as they have no other means of transport.

/1 Obviously, transportation is not in the charter of Rights.

Large cities pay very high municipal taxes and their residents expect the necessary services in return.

I’m concerned about workers, students, and the sick whose lives have become very difficult as a result of the STM strikes.

/2 It’s a real conundrum: do you prevent the unions from striking or do you consider public transport an essential uninterrupted service?

A few months ago Air Canada was forced back to work as air travel was considered an essential service.

We also have rights it’s called "la loi du bien-être". The strike is making life difficult for the common man, especially those that do not have a car and cannot afford to take an Uber.

Legault and his Caquistes are disgraceful, humiliating and inglorious. The 2026 provincial elections cannot come soon enough.

I couldn’t agree with you more. Speaking several languages or simply learning a few expressions in the language of the country you are visiting goes a long way and helps you connect with the local people on a whole different level.

Love the T. Where can I get one?

Unimaginable and heart-wrenching.
Great column, Toula.

Unfortunately, it is still in Terminal 1 of Vienna airport. Three young girls (my granddaughters) are going to be disappointed when I visit next weekend.

Absolutely! 💕

Dr Jane Goodall was an amazing avant-garde woman and what a rich legacy she has left us with.

I agree 💯%. This teen showed what team spirit is all about…. be proud of your own performance as well as that of other competitors.
