Mayor’s message
a veRY buSY fallLet’s start with the Annual Awards of Merit Townies of Note. Many of you sent us nominations as part of our competition. As you may recall, four new annual awards will celebrate the merit of exceptional residents whose involvement in our community or contribution to its development is, in one way or another, remarkable. Amazingly, we’re only weeks away from the October announcement and celebration of the recipients. This first edition of our competition has received the kind of attention that is a source of delight for all of us around the Council table, and I predict that the crowning of the four winners will be one of the high points of the fall for all Townies.
Then there’s culture. As I announced in the preceding issue of Info TMR, our Town will be immersed in a formidable artistic whirlwind this fall. Centred around the 20 cultural treasures of Mount Royal that you helped us identify this summer, the Journées de la culture, which run from September 30 to October 2, will highlight these points of interest emblematic of our community. The updating of our cultural policy will also be discussed this fall and, of course, your opinions will be sought. The following pages will provide you with more information on the subject.
The following pages will also inform you about the construction of a future sports centre, a project that remains in the idea stage
—where it has been for a while now—but that appears to interest more than one resident. This is something I noticed during last spring’s by-election, when many voters brought it up with our candidate, Michelle Setlakwe, during her campaign. However, as we cannot base our decision on a mere impression, we intend to hold consultations and we hope to hear your opinion on this important Mount Royal project. For the time being and without jumping to any conclusions, the idea of a sports centre appears to enjoy a certain popularity. What do you personally think about it?
Take part in our reflection processes this fall and make your voice heard on culture in Mount Royal and on the sports centre project. Play a direct role in the evolution of your living environment!
I look forward to seeing you during our many activities in the coming months. Best wishes for a most pleasant fall!
Philippe Roy, Mayor

ONE VISIT, TWO MISSIONSA city or town’s mission is not limited to local development. It can, in fact, extend to international relations. With that in mind, Mount Royal took part in a political and commercial mission to Lebanon last spring. At the invitation of the Lebanese government and through the agency of Fadi Ziadeh, Lebanon’s consul general in Montreal, delegates from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Saint-Laurent–Mount Royal joined Mayor Philippe Roy and myself to attend an international forum on the Lebanese diaspora.
A WORd FROM YOUR NEW COUNCILLOR It is an honour to have had the opportunity to represent you as Town councillor for District 5 since my swearing-in on June 27. Municipal government is a field that holds a particular interest for me. The decisions taken at this level of government have a direct and tangible impact on citizens’ daily lives. We are all aware of our immediate environment. Our beautiful streets lined with majestic trees and magnificent houses, our parks, bike paths, library, businesses and municipal buildings are places that we frequent every day and that contribute directly to our quality of life.
The political aspect of our mission led to the signing—in the presence of the Lebanese minister of Foreign Affairs—of a cultural and artistic agreement between our Town and Batroun, a port city whose founding dates back to the Phoenician era. Also at Batroun and by way of recognition and gratitude, a visit was paid to the renowned artist Anachar Basbous, who designed and created the sculpture Man and His Community that embellishes Connaught Park. In a generous gesture, the sculptor graciously assigned his copyright to the Town, allowing it to reproduce and use the image of Man and His Community in the future.
The economic aspect of our mission took the form of a series of high-level meetings and workshops with the Investment Development Authority of Lebanon. With various business people and political leaders, we explored a number of avenues for mutual investment, for holding innovative expositions in Montreal and for economic promotion, most notably in the fields of franchising and IT expertise.
The recent campaign that resulted in in my election was a most enriching experience for me. That four other candidates also ran is proof that this exercise in democracy was a success. We should celebrate the fact that several persons with differing visions but a shared desire to be involved in their community were interested enough to run for the position of councillor. The citizens of District 5 had the opportunity to make their voices heard and to express their concerns.
During the campaign, I toured the district and met my neighbours. I learned much in the process. In the main, citizens spoke to me about the importance of preserving and protecting our urban heritage, trees and green spaces. Security and maintaining our peaceful surroundings were other subjects of great importance to many. The condition of our sports facilities also sparked a number of discussions. The citizens whom I met all appeared to realize that these facilities could be better, and I am left with the impression
that renovating the current recreation centre and building a new sports centre are widely hoped for. And, indeed, residents will be consulted about such a project this fall.
My first Council meetings took place during the summer, which made learning the ropes a smooth process. I am now ready and motivated for the fall, a much busier period. We will be focusing on several interesting files, including a review of the urban planning by-laws, the 2017 budget, the sports centre and the updating of our cultural policy.
I look forward to hearing your ideas and learning about your needs and concerns. Please feel free to contact me—it will be a pleasure to converse with you. And on that note, I wish you a great fall!
Michelle Setlakwe, Councillor, District No. 5 [email protected]
A high point of our visit to Lebanon was an invitation we received from the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik (HSUK) to attend a ceremony during which 27 MBAs were awarded to Lebanese students as part of a partnership with HEC Montréal, whose director was also present.
Throughout our mission, no effort was spared to treat us to a royal welcome. Mayor Roy was given the opportunity to contribute, through his speeches and thoughtful participation in discussions, to promoting Canada and, more specifically, our municipality. Without a doubt, Town of Mount Royal shone brightly during his visit to my ancestors’ homeland. As the photographer Frédéric Lecloux once said, “Le voyageur est celui qui se donne le temps de la rencontre et de l’échange” (a traveller is he or she who takes the time to meet and converse).

Our Sports Centre Project — The NexT STep
The idea of a new sports centre has come up regularly over the last few years during council meetings and generated much interest during Michelle Setlakwe’s electoral visits while campaigning last May. Mayor Philippe Roy, who accompanied her door-to-door, made good note of it.
If the sports centre project were to go ahead, the current recreation centre would be updated and connected to a new building, as was the case for the recent successful renovation and expansion of the Reginald J. P. Dawson Library. The project would allow the Town to acquire its own indoor pool, a spacious gymnasium, new exercise rooms, etc., and to offer studio spaces that are better equipped for various arts activities.
Mount Royal’s current facilities are no longer sufficient and do not meet demand in terms of the number of users that can be accommodated or the activities requested. We are simply unable to offer certain activities in high demand, such as indoor basketball or rock climbing. Our current recreation centre will be 50 years old next year; it was initially built to replace a smaller centre and is now due to be replaced itself.
Mount Royal’s recreational activities are extremely popular, drawing 20,000 enrolments annually, and used by between 7,000 and 8,000 residents. Aquatics activities alone account for approximately 5,000 enrolments, and waiting lists are getting longer. It is becoming an accessibility issue, which is somewhat ironic for a municipality that prides itself on promoting a healthy lifestyle.
The Town is currently counting on the Fonds Chantiers Canada-Québec (Canada-Québec building fund), Small Communities Fund Component, to finance the tentative construction of the sports centre and the modernization of its current facilities. If approved, this funding could cover up to two thirds of the total cost of the project, estimated at $33 million.
Starting this fall, the Town will meet with various sports associations in the area in order to better gauge their needs. And although we surveyed the general public in the past regarding recreational activities, we will be consulting them again, primarily by means of a telephone survey. A similar survey conducted in 2006 revealed that indoor pool access, library expansion and a new sports centre were the top priorities for respondents.
Keep an eye on our website for updates: you’ll be able to find information at every stage of this important public consultation.
Our FirST Gala eveNiNG
in Honour of Townies of Note
Join us for the annual gala of the Townies of Note Awards celebrating residents’ involvement on Thursday, October 6 at 18:00.
The awards, established this summer, aim to recognize four individuals who have made exceptional contributions in one of the following categories: Achievement, Community Development, Economic Development, Emerging Generation. Nominations were submitted until August 19, 2016, and are currently being reviewed by a selection committee composed of two elected officials (Mayor Philippe Roy and Councillor Erin Kennedy), Town Manager Ava Couch, and five residents (Sandy Vassiadis, Charles Faribault, Suzanne Caron, Gary Fabien and Melpa Kamateros).
A cocktail will set the tone for the annual awards evening. Attendees will enjoy hors d’oeuvres, a glass of white wine and the sounds of jazz. Guests will then be served a gourmet four-course dinner among neighbours and friends. The evening will come to a close with a dance featuring New Orleans jazz played by the Isabelle Janes Orchestra.
The evening gala is a wonderful opportunity for people to get together and one which we hope will become a TMR tradition.
To purchase tickets or for more information, contact Suzanne Caron, gala coordinator, by phone at 514-739-0377, or by email at [email protected].

MOUNT ROYAL, EVER GREENER!The quality and number of Mount Royal’s parks and other green spaces has always been the trademark of our Town—you’d expect no less of a garden city. And this summer, three of our parks have garnered a lot of attention or will do so soon.
First, in mid-June, Recreation Centre Park was renamed Danyluk Park to pay homage to a great lady and one of the most likeable figures in our recent history. I had the pleasure of working with Vera Danyluk for several years. Much praise has been heaped on her but I will add this: irrespective of the way in which she was involved with a cause, whether as mayor or in another role, Mrs. Danyluk always acted wisely when it came to distinguishing between leadership and authority. And it is most definitely her leadership that we are celebrating posthumously. It was her charisma, vision and talent that made us happy to dedicate a park—Danyluk Park—to her memory this year, for only a park that big can reflect the many lives that were touched by her presence in Mount Royal and elsewhere.
Second, Dakin Park has been a source of delight for more than one family since July, when a magnificent living sculpture was unveiled in it. If you haven’t made the detour
to see it, be sure to do so. Using a special species of willow and with the assistance of a specialized firm, our horticultural experts have succeeded in adding an original attraction to this part of the Town. Imbued with a contemporary spirit, our huge vegetal sculpture is designed as a permanent fixture and meant to be passed through as well as admired from afar.
Lastly, Delvida-Daoust Park, on the corner of Lucerne Road and Plymouth Avenue, will soon be getting a makeover. We are taking advantage of recent developments in the neighbourhood to make this modest oasis of greenery even more attractive.
I want to take advantage of this opportunity to praise the talent of our horticultural teams. From project to project and year to year, it is on their shoulders that a significant part of Mount Royal’s success as a garden city rests. I like to think that Dakin Park’s living sculpture and other such initiatives are signs of a vein of creativity running through our municipal
government. For residents, I am certain that these initiatives add an appropriate touch of fantasy to their living environment.
A quick word on parking restrictions. You may have noticed that parking signs have gone up on some of Mount Royal’s traffic corridors this summer. By banning vehicle parking, mainly on the sides of streets where streetlights are located (the idea being to keep the number of poles to a minimum), we are returning parking management to its former state. Our goal, of course, remains to improve traffic flow and facilitate emergency response, general maintenance and snow removal operations.
As we will soon be shifting from summer green to a more autumnal palette, I want to wish you a wonderful fall from the entire municipal organization.
Ava Couch, Town Manager [email protected]
Economic mission to LEbanon a SuCCeSSIn early May, Mayor Philippe Roy and Councillor Joseph Daoura travelled to Lebanon for a few days as part of an economic initiative. The mission was organized by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Saint Laurent — Mount Royal in partnership with the Chambre de commerce et d’industrie Canada-Liban and the Consulate General of Lebanon in Montreal. Its objective was to give Quebec businesses the chance to explore markets in the Middle-East and North Africa (MENA). It was also an opportunity to promote the Town of Mount Royal with Lebanese businesses, primarily in Beirut and Batroun, in order to better attract their business.
Mayor Roy and Councillor Daoura also had the unique opportunity to meet sculptor Anachar Basbous at his residence and to visit his studio. Basbous created Man and His Community, a sculpture that has greeted visitors at the entrance of the Connaught Park rose garden since 2011. To see more of Basbous’ sculptures, visit www.anacharbasbous.com.
It is worth noting that Mount Royal has a large Lebanese community, which accounts for 4% of the Town’s population, outnumbering other families with roots abroad, including those from France, Vietnam and Morocco.

the living sculpture will require regular maintenance including pruning twice a year, a touch of fertilizer and plenty of water from our teams. this month, landscaping will begin around the edges of the sculpture to create clearer pathways leading in and out of it.
The kitchen waste collection pilot project that started in summer 2014 was a success and will now be a permanent collection service, like garbage and recycling. All households in the Town of Mount Royal will have access to this service by the end of November.
Residents in the western sector who were not part of the pilot-project will be given a start-up kit. The kit includes a small countertop bin with a handle, ten cellulose-lined paper bags, a 45-litre brown bin on wheels and a detailed user guide. Kitchen waste collection will take place on Wednesdays, and run from late November until mid-April.
Yard waste collection will then resume from mid-April until late November. During these collection periods, only one of the bins (brown or green) will be emptied. We recommend using the green bin because it is larger and kitchen waste is accepted.
The emerald ash borer poses a real threat throughout Quebec, which is why the Town regularly updates its action plan aimed at fighting this destructive beetle.
A survey carried out in summer 2015 established that 450 ash trees on private land required TreeAzin treatment: 260 of the trees were treated during this period and 190 were scheduled to be treated this year. The condition of these 190 trees was evaluated again in June to determine whether they are still treatable: 50% can still be treated. The other 95 trees are too damaged for the treatment to be effective and will have to be cut down this fall or winter.
Only 40 out of the 95 healthy ash trees have received a TreeAzin injection. In addition to directly informing all owners concerned, the Town has raised awareness through activities such as an evening information session, information booths and even door-to-door visits. The Town has also offered to reimburse residents for 50% of the treatment cost upon presentation of the contractor’s receipt. Treatment requests were accepted until August 19, 2016.
The emerald ash borer is spreading particularly quickly this year; as a result, any trees that have not been treated will probably need to be cut down next year. Property owners will have to cover the cost of cutting down the trees.
Strict Monitoring in Public Areas The measures implemented will also target ash trees growing on public land. 310 of the trees listed received an initial TreeAzin injection in 2015 and a second one over the summer. 14 traps were also set up on trees throughout the area in order to detect the presence of the emerald ash borer and determine the rate at which it is spreading. Further analysis will be conducted to establish the health of each tree. Based on the results, we will be able to determine which trees need to be cut down.

Nick Finori and Pierre Léonard, two Public Works employees, got creative transforming fire hydrants into fun dog caricatures.
Your four-legged friends will love these additions to the gated dog run located on Dunkirk, between Montgomery and Glencoe. It is open daily from 6:00 to 22:00.
NEW PARkING SIgNageSince July, additional “No Parking” signs have been posted to prevent parking on a single side of the street on various roads in Mount Royal. It is now prohibited to park on one side of the street, at all times. The signs were put up on the same side as the lampposts on most roads, minimizing the need to put up more posts.
The new signage will improve traffic flow and facilitate firetruck access, general maintenance and snow removal. To see a map of the streets affected, go to http://www.ville.mont-royal.qc.ca/en.
For more information, contact Technical Services at: 514-734-3034 or [email protected]
Fun Fire Hydrants at the Dog run
Two years ago we undertook an innovative, energy-efficient streetlight conversion project, switching to LED (light-emitting diode) technology. Traditional HPS street lighting was replaced on Rockland Road and in Connaught Park and the conversion is now also complete on Côte-de-Liesse Road.
LED Cobra Head luminaires used on the service road focuses lighting on the roadway, reducing light pollution and glare, while giving drivers greater visibility.
Designed to withstand changes in climate, LED cells last up to 25 times longer than the high pressure sodium (HPS) bulbs currently used by the Town, and save energy. LED technology is more sustainable and uses less energy, guaranteeing lower energy and maintenance costs.

This summer we began the process of redrafting our cultural policy, as announced in the last edition of Info TMR. Working alongside Thérèse David, a consultant for Culture pour tous, the municipal administration’s committee came together to study the task at hand.
The committee first analyzed similar initiatives undertaken in different cities, using the success stories as inspiration. The Town of Mount Royal has already established numerous traditions that define the pillars of our cultural identity, including various cultural activities adapted to diverse groups, a bilingual library buzzing with activity, as well as outdoor celebrations and performances. However, a cultural policy that better reflects the Town of Mount Royal would enhance these activities, promoting them more effectively and defining them in greater detail.
In an effort to adjust our guidelines and align our objectives with residents’ actual needs, we will be meeting with key local organizations this fall. The members of these organizations are involved in our community at various levels, and are worthy representatives of our cultural activities and reliable spokespeople for our Town.
In these meetings, we will redefine the policy’s guiding principles and then present them to the public. These guiding principles are there to encourage reflection on Mount Royal’s position on cultural issues. You will be able to express your thoughts in this regard on multiple platforms. In addition to information that will be available online, we will hold an information session in the fall. We would like to hear your thoughts, suggestions and vision of a cultural identity that is a sustainable part of our community.
Together we will draft a new cultural policy that takes into account current issues and focuses more on your needs. The new policy draft will be presented to the public within the next few months. Stay tuned!
