“The boroughs, business owners, residents, customers, passers-by and tourists appreciate the quality of life offered by pedestrianization projects. They have also become a signature and a staple of summer in Montreal and contribute directly to commercial vitality. We therefore wish to encourage the boroughs and associations of merchants to continue to operate this way. These projects are not only good for the economy, they also contribute directly to the attractiveness of Montreal. We will continue to support them.”
