Plante gives herself 7 out of 10

At the halfway point of her term, during Projet’s weekend council, Mayor Plante gives herself 7 out of 10, citing the great western park and the creation of more social housing (ongoing) as achievements. It’s only mentioned in passing, but the city’s involvement in the redevelopment of the Molson lands – rather than the hands-off developer free-for-all in Griffintown fostered by Tremblay – will be seen in retrospect as a positive change for the city. If you want to shape the urban landscape, profit can’t be the only motive.
