    Sunday was 4/20, at least in American style, and thus the day of celebration of cannabis. People gathered at the Cartier monument to fête the day on Sunday afternoon.

      Did anyone notice whether the cross turned purple overnight?

      Also, can someone have a look Monday evening and see?

      There hasn’t been a lot of other news Monday. Le Devoir talked to people going to churches to mourn the pope. CTV did similarly.

      Pundits are noticing that the Pope died shortly after a visit from J.D. Vance just as the Queen died shortly after a visit by Liz Truss. Are elderly figureheads vulnerable to the vibes of right‑wing politicians?

        Why such a low bar with your conspiracy theory? Why just their vibes, maybe those dastardly right-wingers are using slow release poison! /s

        4/20 is the dope protest, Hitler’s birthday, and now the day the pope died. Where’s Umberto Eco or Dan Brown when you need them?

        Actually, he died 2025-04-21 at 07:35 CEST (UTC+02:00).

        And another thing, he was 88, and you know what THAT stands for, and

        @Ian kidding aside, I think twice now when I see pro athletes wearing the numbers 14 or 88. That said and for the record, I don’t think Nick Suzuki is a Nazi.

        I went up tonight. Most bulbs are white, maybe 5 purple, 4 blue, 2 yellow. Odd.

        I have suspected for years the super expensive colour-changing system that was installed wasn’t working right…
        @Joey yeah probably not haha
