Tenants help neighbours evicted by fire
The fire in St-Henri on Saturday damaged a building from 1896 beyond repair – photos from Toula Drimonis show how far gone it is. CBC describes how two women from the building have started to collect items to help the others who’ve lost all their things but, typically, doesn’t give any link to the Facebook page mentioned.
Looking for it, I’ve discovered that the landlord of the building is Peter Sergakis. And here’s the page.
There’s no mention of any Gofundme or other cash collection, although I imagine it could be difficult to divide money fairly among so many tenants. Finding people new places to live and helping them set up is probably wiser.
