For over 20 years, the federal and provincial governments have made enormous efforts employing a variety of approaches in an attempt to stimulate Montreal's economy.

Our first Prime Minister saw a country that would be known for its generosity of spirit. And so it is.

A source of innocent merriment! Of innocent merriment.

We have a deficit of wonder right now.
