A belated Happy New Year to all. But hey, it’s still January.
Watching some snow fall here in Toronto and remembering Verdun. I now have a niece, born and raised in Toronto, who is living in Verdun. A small world.

Hi! I really enjoyed the various posts. My parents both grew up in Pointe St. Charles and later several of my mother's sisters married and lived in Verdun (on Bannantyne and Argyll). My father and his three brothers paddled for the Grand Trunk Boating Club for a decade or more and I have many cups and photos from the period 1925-1936. Now approaching 80 myself I would like to pass on some of this material where it would be appreciated. If there is any interest I would love to hear from you. Thanks!

Hi Gord I am happy you surfed by and saw some of our different stories posted by ex-verdun & montrealers over te years. We would love to have you share your pics with us. Maybe we can organize a way to have them scanned & posted here on te site under your own heading or topic. I am sure we had a Grand Trunk Boating post on here years ago. I will dig it up & post the link to it. If you have a scanner you can scan and post the pics and I will be happy to ok it on this end. or email me and we can figure something out. Good to hear from you Gord. and hope to hear from you soon. Cheers ! Les
