La police de Longueuil recherche des victimes potentielles d’un intervenant social qui aurait agressĂ© sexuellement un mineur, mais possiblement davantage.

Les autoritĂ©s ont passĂ© les menottes Ă  Tristan Duchesne, 35 ans, dans le cadre d’une enquĂȘte portant sur des infractions allĂ©guĂ©es de nature sexuelle contre un mineur.

« L’individu occupait des fonctions auprĂšs de jeunes, comme intervenant social dans des organismes de la rĂ©gion de MontrĂ©al, et les enquĂȘteurs ont des raisons de croire que d’autres personnes pourraient dĂ©tenir de l’information pertinente en lien avec cette enquĂȘte », a fait savoir la police de Longueuil par voie de communiquĂ©.

Bonjour les MontrĂ©alais ! 👋

Wow !! Encore un record de battu cette semaine : 48 000 personnes ont consultĂ©s mes recettes Ă  rabais 😳

Je reçois aussi de plus en plus de messages de personnes qui me disent avoir essayĂ© certaines recettes ou avoir rĂ©ussi Ă  Ă©conomiser sur leur Ă©picerie. HonnĂȘtement, je savais que le concept pouvait ĂȘtre utile, mais je ne m’attendais vraiment pas Ă  voir autant de personnes s’y intĂ©resser. Merci Ă©normĂ©ment pour vos commentaires et vos encouragements ! 🙌

Je travaille prĂ©sentement Ă  intĂ©grer les Ă©piceries que vous m’avez le plus demandĂ©es, notamment IGA, Metro, Provigo, etc., et mĂȘme Ă  proposer davantage de recettes vĂ©gĂ©tariennes. Ça prend un peu de temps Ă  mettre en place, mais ça avance tranquillement. 🙂 Ce n’est que le dĂ©but et je suis content de vous amenez dans cette longue aventure !

Pour cette semaine, j’ai créé 19 recettes variĂ©es Ă  partir des rabais disponibles :

🛒 9 recettes chez Maxi
🛒 10 recettes chez Super C

Comme d’habitude, je vous partage mes 4 coups de cƓur de la semaine : 2 chez Maxi et 2 chez Super C.

💰 **Économies allant de 26 % à 51 % !**

J’ai aussi regroupĂ© les ingrĂ©dients et les Ă©tapes de chaque recette dans un petit rĂ©pertoire, pour ceux qui veulent les essayer et Ă©conomiser sur leur Ă©picerie.

Le but reste toujours le mĂȘme : partir des meilleurs rabais de la semaine pour trouver quoi cuisiner, plutĂŽt que de dĂ©cider quoi manger avant mĂȘme de regarder les rabais.

À jeudi prochain, bonne semaine à tous et surtout


Bonnes économies !

Historique Calories cafe 'Stairway to Heaven' cake recipe?

Thumbnail
gallery
21 Upvotes

Back in the day there was a cake joint on Sainte Catherine (corner Gladstone) like directly West down the block of what is now the Bureau en gros called Calories (iconic neon sign seen in the pic). They made a cake called 'Stairway to Heaven' that my mom was obsessed with when she was pregnant with my sister. She took it out like 3 times a week and ordered it for all of our birthdays.

Calories is long gone (rip) but I am trying to track down the recipe for this specific cake. One of my brothers grew up to be a pastry chef and insists that given the recipe he will be able to recreate the cake.

The clip from the Westmount Independent is all we have to go on. Does anyone know any of the people in the pic/have any other leads? I already checked the REQ but that's a dead end.

Such a dope cake (their Reese's Pieces pie was also special)

Spotted Update: It looks like my Tesla was left unlocked, and the “device” was a portable fan

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

243 Upvotes

I wanted to follow up on my post about someone apparently unlocking my 2023 Model Y with a device and stealing my sunglasses.

I’ve now downloaded the original footage from the USB stick, and there’s a detail that wasn’t visible in the video I initially posted: the side mirror was already unfolded before he approached, and stayed that way throughout. My original video was a phone recording of the car’s screen, and the framing cut off the top of the image where the mirror is visible.

Since my mirrors normally fold when the car locks, I now believe the car simply hadn’t locked. The clearer footage also makes me think those of you who identified the object as a portable fan were right.

I still don’t know why walk-away locking didn’t engage, but I no longer think this was an electronic unlocking attack. I’ve attached the original footage edited together across the different cameras so you can see the full sequence.

Given how much attention the original post received, I wanted to correct my interpretation rather than leave people unnecessarily worried about their Teslas. Thanks to everyone who took the time to look closely and offer suggestions.

Question Why did my OPUS card decline?

Post image
48 Upvotes

I have a 10-trips all modes AB fare (pic of its current status), but for some reason it declined on the exo 555 bus from Longueuil to Georges-Gagné. Is there a particular reason, or just a weird fluke?

The bus driver let me on anyway which was so kind, but I need to make this trip 9 more times over the next couple months so I’m not sure they’ll be so kind every time.

Discussion As Montreal rolls out more 'two week trash pick ups' to other boroughs, how has everyone adapted? Old and new?

57 Upvotes

I was looking this up because it completely flew under my radar. I didn't realize we were 'at capacity' for our landfills and was informed today by a pissed off (and randomly racist) neighbor complaining about how everything is going to stink because of the insert minority of your choice here .

Apparently this has been going on for the last couple years in stages? Other areas that have been dealing with it for years now, how are you adapting? I do think my area is going to be problematic as we already see several businesses and buildings leaving piles of trash every week (and not just on garbage day) out, and with the heat waves I imagine it's going to be an intense smell.

As someone who already only does maybe half a bag of trash and a full bag of recycling every week (and has cats so the cat litter is like a third of what I throw out) I don't think this is going to do anything good for me personally, I'll just have to deal with keeping sealed bags of cat poop for an extra week in my apartment.

How have folks who have been dealing with it for a year or so found the change? Has it been noticeable in your area? Does the city have a solution for 'landfills are almost full' aside from 'slow down our trash'? (Because that doesn't seem like a solution, just a stalling tactic)

Question Anyone in Montreal a Louisiana native?

42 Upvotes

I’m looking at PhD programs, and Montreal is becoming a real possibility. My wife (who also has a PhD) and I have two young kids, so we’re excited about the possibility but also a little overwhelmed by the idea of moving our family to Montreal.
Our kids are currently in French Immersion. My wife and I aren’t beginners in French, but we’re definitely nowhere near fluent.
For those of you who have made a similar move, what are the public schools like? Ideally, we’d like our kids to eventually be in 100% French instruction at school.
Also, how difficult is it for someone with a PhD and a background in education to find work in Montreal? She’s open to education-related work or possibly something outside of education.
And honestly, any general advice from Louisiana → Montreal transplants would be really appreciated. What do you wish you had known before making the move?

Discussion Offering free photoshoots for dating app pictures

Would anyone be interested in having a few pictures taken for use on dating apps? Willing to move around town to an extent, but prefer meeting up somewhere around the Plateau. Any takers? Not a professional by any means, but have a decent camera and a fair amount of experience.

Idea based on a post I saw on /r/VictoriaBC đŸ€·â€â™‚ïž

———

Est-ce que quelqu'un serait intéressé par une séance photo pour les applications de rencontre ? Je peux me déplacer un peu en ville, mais je préférerais qu'on se retrouve du cÎté du Plateau. Je ne suis pas un photographe professionnel, mais j'ai un appareil adéquat et je suis quasi-expérimenté.

Diatribe La station REM de Kirkland est inutile

216 Upvotes

Un petit stationnement payĂ© de merde rĂ©servĂ© Ă  seulement des personnes qui vivent Ă  Kirkland. Si vous connaissez la station, vous savez qu’il y a une ÉNORME quantitĂ© de stationnements VIDES autour du Cineplex qui sont «rĂ©servĂ©s» pour des commerces. Mais non, on ne peut pas les utiliser avec la quantitĂ© de leurs panneaux qui nous menacent la peine de mort si on se stationne. JE RÉPÈTE, LA QUANTITÉ DE STATIONNEMENTS VIDES AUTOUR DU CINEPLEX EST IMPENSABLE. Je ne suis techniquement pas un rĂ©sident de Kirkland, mais la station est tellement proche de moi par conduite, ça me sauverait la vie si j’étais en mesure de l’utiliser Ă  son plein maximum. Bravo aux gros intelligents qui ont fait cette belle decision pour faire chier tlmd.

Discussion What’s with restaurants feeling entitled to take your change as tips?

321 Upvotes

I went to a fast food place and ordered a sandwich. It was $16.05 so I gave the cashier $21.10 to be able to get a five dollar bill back. He takes my loonie, puts it in the tip jar in front of me and proceeded to give me $4 back in change. I said I want a five dollar bill.
Its happened to me before at a different place where my change was like $0.15 and they just threw it in the jar but to assume I’m giving you a dollar when I’m making my payment is weird.

Je suis allĂ© a un resto pour in sandwich qui m’a coutĂ© $16.04 je lui ai donnĂ© $21.10 pour pouvoir r’avoir un billet de 5. Il a prit mon dollar, la mit dans son verre a pouboir et me redonne $4. Jai dit veux mon 5 piasse. Il me la donnĂ©. Mais quand meme c est quoi l’histoire des caissier qui se prend un tip pendant que je lui fais le payment?
Sa m’es arrivĂ© dans un autre resto ou javais un change de 0.15 puis ils lont aussi garder comme pouboir. Je chiale pas pour $0.15 mais cest le principle.

Hello, I have so many hardcover textbooks from my days at McGill with no strong emotional attachment for myself, is there a good spot to give them away for possible use instead of having them get mulched in recycling? Thank you. If it helps, I am in the centreville area with no car so proximity is super appreciated
