    Valérie Plante was on Tout le monde en parle Sunday night and Metro has eight soundbites: she’d like to move Formula E to the track, and she’s open to what she calls the return of the Expos. As readers know, I wish the baseball idea wasn’t being framed this way: whatever happens, the team that would come here, at great expense to the city no matter what promises are made, would have no connection with the Expos of memory.

      The city is holding sessions to explain to people how to behave around coyotes in town: in short, use assertive body language and don’t feed them.

        We have a smog warning in town and its surrounding areas Monday morning.

        Update: Continuing overnight Monday. There was a haze on Mount Royal all day.

        And, Tuesday morning, the warning continues.

        …aaand Tuesday evening, the same. I noticed, walking up through St-Henri this evening, I could smell woodsmoke in a few spots. Pizza ovens, or domestic fireplaces? (I also smelled onions frying and cannabis being smoked, and the leaves beginning to gently rot in Cartier Square. St-Henri is apparently that kind of place.)
