ART EXHIBIT AT CSL LIBRARY
Côte St. Luc?s Eleanor London Library is
presenting artworks by Amy A. Thompson and
Amber Albrecht, until Feb. 28, the city
announced. ?This exhibition, Invented
Memories: Works by Amber Albrecht and Amy
A. Thompson, explores themes of recollection,
narratives and dreams,? says a city announcement.
?Amber Albrecht has created prints and
drawings of absurdist situations, which stem
from her recollection of the creatures, landscapes
and impossible happenings of the storybooks
from her childhood.
?In Amy A. Thompson?s mixed media series
Glint, she depicts an imagined land. These
dreamlike landscapes lead the viewer to reflect
on the contrast between the intimacy of the
self and the grand expanse of the cosmos.?

Hundreds attend Anglade funeral
By P.A. Sévigny
The Suburban
Last Saturday morning, when
hundreds of friends, family and
colleagues gathered to bid Adieu
to both Georges and Mireille
Anglade, it was a fitting tribute to
the couple?s will to lead as full and
productive a life as possible.
?Papa made us think big,? said
Dominique, his daughter. ?He
always encouraged us to express
and defend our opinions ? a lesson
he taught us well through his
own actions and his own example.?
Both George and Mireille were
among the thousands of victims
crushed and killed during Haiti?s
recent earthquake. As a working
academic, he was a respected professor
and recognized as one of
the founders of the city?s UQAM-
L?Université du Québec à
Montréal. As a political activist, he
was made a political prisoner
when he took a stand against
Haitian dictator Papa Doc
Duvalier and his brutal Ton-Ton
Macoutes. As both a friend and a
father, several could not hold back
their tears as their close fa ...

rates but nothing was said about the
agglomeration?s budget. Following the
recent municipal election, the city?s socalled
minority partners are now forced
to deal with a 12.6 percent increase in
their ?agglo? rates which the ASM
report denounces as both financially
and politically unacceptable. The report
also denounces Mayor Tremblay?s autocratic
approach to ?agglo? concerns
when he made it clear there would be
no changes made, or even considered
for the 2010 budget. Thus were the suburbs
effectively cut out of the budget?s
discussions even though the city?s independent
suburbs finance almost 20 percent
of the city?s budget without any
serious participation in the process. As
for the budget?s actual figures, both
Mayor Tremblay and executive committee
member Alan DeSousa will have to
explain the 9.4 percent increase
(excluding debt repayment) in the city?s
operational spending habits. Apart from
the fact this means the city will be

More money for STM, less for homeowners
By Dan Delmar
The Suburban
The city of Montreal is blaming a
decrease in revenues during the recession
for the fact that Montreal homeowners
will be seeing an average property tax
increase of over five percent. Expenses
have been cut by $100 million per year for
the last three years. Much of the cuts have
come at the expense of the workforce,
which has been reduced through attrition.
There are nearly 1,200 fewer
employees working for the city now than
in 2006.
?Revenues fell off the cliff,? said Alan
DeSousa, the executive committee?s vicechairman,
who presented the $4.3 billion
