Looking at this cancellation and this other threat, I can’t help but think that both Dumontier and Evenko are more than happy to return favours and provide ammunition to Denis Coderre for the upcoming campaign.

I don’t see this being a big political issue. Who is going to be furious that they cancelled the GP? Not the usual group of tourism interests. Not fans.
Let’s be able to go out and see a movie again before inviting the world to come visit.

I agree, it shouldn’t be a political issue. But I suspect Coderre and Perez will turn it into one.

UPDATE: ” A previous version of this story stated that the Canadian Grand Prix is cancelled, based on a report by Radio-Canada. In fact, Radio-Canada is now reporting the race’s future is uncertain and Montreal public health is recommending that it not take place.

The last thing Coderre should want to talk about is auto racing

Thank you, Jonathan.
