Sounds like a great day for people watching and just wandering around Downtown,a walk along Saint Catherine (sans auto's) for a couple of hours ,lunch at an outdoor cafe ,..or buy something.........Saint Catherine Street Annual Sidewalk Sale,,,sounds like the Wellington Street Promenade deal.just a largewr scale I guess.Oh well always something to do in Montreal,maybe spend the whole day Downtown & take in some sort of festival later on ......
here's the Gazette comment on this.
MONTREAL - Ste. Catherine St. will be closed to traffic between St. Marc and Bleury Sts. this weekend for the annual sidewalk sale, billed as the largest one in Canada, attracting 300,000 people, organizers said. Stores will be open for outdoor shopping till 7 p.m. on Saturday and 6 p.m. Sunday.
