A Community Centre Evicted, Grassroots Groups Dispersed – The Rover The 15 community organizations that operated in Centre William-Hingston in Parc-Ex were forced out when the CSSDM took back the building. While some services relocated, others closed for good.

Dozens of Montreal’s community organizations have operated out of buildings owned by the CSSDM since the 2020 education reform. These spaces could be reclaimed at any time, leaving organizations vulnerable to eviction. That's what happened to the 15 groups at William-Hingston.

The Problem with Fixing Heat Waves in Parc-Ex – The Rover Planting more trees will cool down the heat island in Parc-Extension, but it might also change the neighbourhood’s social fabric.

🏠🌳 Montreal has a long history of using environmental projects to attract capital into the city. Parc-Extension residents say that puts them in a bind: greenify and risk gentrification, or keep dealing with increasingly hot summer temperatures.

I remember when @titocurtis.bsky.social started The Rover, I thought “that’s brave as hell to leave the Gazette as a rising star, start a self-sustained solo journalism venture!” Easy choice to support. Now, it’s a full on outlet in multiple languages even working with a journalist in Gaza. 👏 👏

A Mohawk cannabis dispensary was burned early this morning in Kanesatake.

Firefighters were called to the territory around 3:15 a.m. and quickly discovered “elements that led them to believe the fire was a case of arson,” at Sweet Grass Lodge, according to SQ.
