Notre-Dame-des-Neiges “au naturel”
With the lock-out in Notre-Dame-des-Neiges cemetary entering its second month, the lack of landscaping is becoming more and more evident. While some are bemoaning it’s unkept appearance, I have to admit that Mother Nature’s take on the city’s largest burial ground is not without a certain charm.
Do try to be respectful however. Although we’re supposed to check with the management if you want to take pictures, my own request to post these images went unanswered and there are already tons of images on Flickr and elsewhere. At the very least, make sure that the names of the deceased aren’t visible.
And one more thing, don’t forget to take some allergy medicine if you’re sensitive to hay fever.

This strike is absolutely awful. It’s about time the government impose “essential services” for the families involved, for respect of the dead, for the general health and well being of everyone and the environment. I passed by a couple of weeks ago, and saw the stickers on the fence, tents and signs up. Why has the government not stepped in. How much longer do families of the dead need to wait? Their lives are on hold because of this. I think the public should protest just like when they protested the renaming of Park Avenue!
