A salute to Montreal’s Moroccan community on Throne Day

Today is Throne Day, a national holiday in Morocco celebrated on July 30, commemorating the day the King ascended to the throne. Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante released a statement wishing Moroccans a happy Feast of the Throne, while saluting the city’s Moroccan community for their cultural contributions.

“To Moroccans from here and elsewhere, I wish a happy Feast of the Throne. At the same time, I want to underline the contribution of the Moroccan community to the cultural richness of Montreal.”

Aux Marocains et Marocaines d'ici et d'ailleurs, je souhaite une belle et heureuse fête du Trône. Je veux souligner par la même occasion l'apport de la communauté marocaine à la richesse culturelle de Montréal. ???????? #polmtl
