Message from the Borough Mayor
and Saint-Michel District Councillor
This third edition of the borough’s
Directory of Activities and Services
attests that citizens are satisfied with the
services rendered to them by the borough.
Tokens of their appreciation mentioned
in this document show our desire to
accompany you and ease your way into
your daily activities!
Fuelled by this determination, your Borough
Council constantly strives to improve your
quality of life and create a sense of
belonging for every resident.
Dear Fellow Citizens:
My role as Borough Mayor is both an honour
and a huge responsibility. My duty consists
of seeing that our population’s specific
needs and expectations are addressed
to ensure the best possible quality of life
for citizens living in every neighbourhood
of the borough.
Obviously your collective quality of life
largely depends upon the quality of our
services. This is why, in areas such as
sports, leisure, economic and social
development, environmental protection,
public works, information, public security,
culture and others, our employees, our
elected officials and our partners have
come together to offer you pleasant life
conditions.
The Saint-Michel District that I have been
representing as councillor has seen many
major project developments. We have
repaired several streets, modernized many
parks in the area, revamped the cabin and
pool at Sainte-Lucie Park, made significant
investments in Sainte-Yvette Park,
completed the bicycle path around the
Complexe environnemental de Saint-Michel
and proceeded with the opening of the
TOHU, la Cité des arts du cirque, just to
name a few.
Please allow me to congratulate my
colleagues on the Borough Council for their
hard work in accomplishing the various
mandates they had been given and in
facing up to the different challenges. Their
messages will attest to their efforts and
involvement in providing an ever-renewed
quality of life for their fellow citizens.

Message from the Parc-Extension
District Councillor
Regarding housing, large-scale projects
were launched, such as the construction
of condominiums on Hutchison Street south
of Jean-Talon and the housing project at
d’Anvers and Durocher.
Currently, several projects are among my
priorities for the upcoming months, for
instance, the construction of an indoor
pool at the Complexe William-Hingston
scheduled to start soon, and the redesign
and standardization of Saint-Roch Park,
which will begin right after the completion
of the pool. Lastly, over the next year,
the Borough Council will study two issues
I have had at heart for a long time:
repairing the alleys in Parc-Extension
and the major investments needed
for repairing Ogilvy and Querbes streets.
I would like to take this opportunity
with the publication of this annual
directory to inform my fellow citizens of the
Parc-Extension District of the various things
accomplished or under way since last year.
As City Councillor, I am proud of what we
have accomplished over the last year,
especially in terms of improvements to local
infrastructures, streets and parks. For
instance, we will soon inaugurate a new
water games system in our rejuvenated
Howard Park. As well, the Jarry-Querbes
underpass has undergone major repairs for
the safety of pedestrians and users at large.

Mary Deros
Message from the Villeray
District Councillor
More work has been carried out in other
areas, such as new pedestrian crossing
lights with call button, alley lighting,
improved parking and traffic signage in
commercial and residential areas, major
repairs at Jean-Rougeau Arena, more
evidence that the quality of life and safety
of our citizens is on the rise.
In my opinion, as City Councillor, my
essential role consists of addressing
the numerous concerns of the citizens
I represent. In that sense, many
accomplishments lead me to believe that
we must keep innovating. Along these lines,
many kilometres of street and sidewalks
have been repaired and Turin Park
underwent a major revamping, with its
children’s play area now up to standards,
a new bocce area for our elderly citizens,
a new soccer field as well as a picnic
and rest area. Major work is under way
at Villeray Park as well.
On the social and human side, through the
Urban Renewal Program, we were able to
implement efficient measures in the fight
against poverty, isolation, difficulties related
to aging and street gangs. In concrete
terms, we set up the Rousselot Preventative
Intervention Project, and street workers
now cover the Villeray Park sector.
The building of several social housing
units was authorized on Lajeunesse Street,
thus improving the quality of life for the
sector’s residents.
Further street, park and public space
planning is necessary, including studies
on new private, social and commercial
construction projects.

Message from the Jarry
District Councillor
As President of the Urban Advisory
Committee, I am also responsible for
promoting economic development in our
borough. Several job creating investment
projects are currently taking shape, such
as the construction of a seniors’ residence
in cooperation with the Municipal Housing
Bureau (MHB) on Saint-Denis Street and a
Housing Cooperative on Lajeunesse Street.
The Jarry Park tennis facilities also
underwent major expansion and
modernization, allowing us for implementing
our future priorities for Jarry Park.
As Councillor for the Jarry District, I can
only state how satisfied I am with the
series of accomplishments made in the
Jarry District. I am pleased to present
a brief overview of the work done over
the last year.
Moreover, by actively taking part in the
implementation of our borough’s urban
planning, we can now better conciliate
residential and economic development
over our territory’s urban fabric, which
represents a major step forward in
providing each of our residents with
improved quality of life.
Anie Samson
Examples of projects initiated or
completed over the last 12 months
speak for themselves. Think of the
central mall of Saint-Laurent Blvd.,
where some 100 trees will be planted
between Jean-Talon and Crémazie, the
launch of the second stage of our street
lighting modernization program in a large
part of the district, residential development
near Jarry Park or Molière Street or the
systematic removal of graffiti all over the
borough, my position at the Borough Council
put me right at the heart of the evolution
of various issues.

Message from the Jean-Rivard
District Councillor
As City Councillor, I am sensitive to
our youth’s needs for playgrounds and
recreational areas. Over the last two years,
I have been fighting for several well-needed
modernization projects in Shaughnessy,
René-Goupil and Ovila-Légaré parks, not
to mention the complete redesign and
transformation of François-Perrault Park
after the upcoming public consultations.
I am strongly convinced that it is possible
for all Jean-Rivard District residents
to count on an excellent quality of life.
The Borough plays a major role in that
matter by supplying top-tier services
and infrastructures.
My involvement in active politics is based
on serving my fellow citizens in a tangible
manner, ensuring they can count on the
best possible quality of life, while making
sure the investment in public services
for our borough and more specifically
for the Jean-Rivard District I represent,
is spent wisely.
Frank Venneri
Over the course of the last year, we saw
the implementation of the Urban Renewal
Program in the Jean-Rivard District.
Two million dollars are currently invested
in street and sidewalk repairs, including
the redesign of 12th Avenue, allowing
for improved parking availability during
the winter months. As well, 24th Avenue
underwent major rejuvenation operations.

The Borough
Profile
A Welcoming Setting
Open to the World
Some 75 cultural communities make up 65%
of the population over our 16-km2 territory.
This magnificent cultural mosaic ranks us
second among Montreal boroughs in terms
of ethnic diversity.
On the international scene, our Borough
contributes to Montreal’s image in sectors
such as new technology, artistic innovation
and sports events. Here are a few examples:
•
In 2001, our population reached 145,485,
an increase of 2.7% over the 1996 census.
Our Borough has the second largest
population and third highest population
density in Montreal.
|8|
The Complexe environnemental de
Saint-Michel has unique expertise in
collecting, recycling and ecology.
• The recent opening of TOHU, la Cité
des arts du cirque as well as the
implementation of the École nationale
de cirque in the immediate surroundings
of the Cirque du Soleil’s headquarters
make it a world capital for circus around
the Complexe environnemental de
Saint-Michel.
• The world’s tennis elite meets every
year at Jarry Park for international
competitions organized by Tennis
Canada.
Message from
the Director
We owe these services, whose quality,
diversity and accessibility are the envy
of many, to the cooperation of our partner
organizations, our employees and members
of the Borough Council, who take it to
heart to serve you better and listen
to your needs, your ideas and your
expectations, regardless of your
age or socio-economic level.
It is once again time to publish our Directory
of Activities and Services, and I am proud to
present you with the 2004-2005 edition.
This is more than a catalogue of activities.
In fact, this document represents our
commitment to offer quality services suited
to your needs in an efficient manner. It is
designed to be a year-long resource, so
keep your copy handy at all times!
Within Montreal’s municipal structure,
boroughs now have a front-line role to play
with the population. In fact, the boroughs
are responsible for proximity services, those
that are part of our daily lives. This is
certainly a daunting task, but we put in the
hard work and professionalism necessary
to offer you the best possible services.
Our efforts are multi-faceted: public
safety, urban planning, culture, road
works, environment, democratic life,
recreation, etc. Each and every one
of these components contributes to our
neighbourhoods’ vitality. But all the effort
made in the Borough of Villeray—SaintMichel—Parc-Extension would be vain if it
weren’t for our citizens. You came from
all over the world to give this Borough a
colourful and unique, diverse and multiple
character, and many of you are satisfied by
the services from which you benefit.
This directory was prepared for you so
you can appreciate the efforts that together
everyday, we keep investing in order to
make our neighbourhoods a dynamic,
rewarding place to live. We hope that,
when reading this document, you will
find proof that we are here
“With you, everyday!”

Public
Works
Under the new municipal regulations,
boroughs are now responsible for road
works, waterworks, urban furniture, parks
and green spaces, municipal facilities as
well as traffic and parking.
Waste
Disposal
Over our entire territory, 264 blue-collar,
specialized and professional workers are
dedicated to ensuring your quality of life.
Household garbage is collected twice a
week, either Mondays and Thursdays or
Tuesdays and Fridays, daytime or nighttime
(except on Christmas and New Year).

The operation starts with the main arteries
and sidewalks.
When snow accumulation reaches 15 cm or
more, temporary parking measures are
indicated by orange signs affixed to parking
signs at least ten hours before snow
removal starts. A final warning signal lets
you know the snow blower will be passing
by soon.

your local éco-centre.
Collection of
Recyclable Materials
Each Montreal household has a green box
for recycling. Paper, cardboard, plastic,
glass and metal objects recuperated are
sent for recycling instead of burying.
You too can do your part for protecting
the environment by recycling.
Instructions for Recycling
Rinse plastic, glass and metal containers
thoroughly and sort them carefully. Place
newsprint and paper in such a way that the
wind does not carry them away. Cartons
smaller than 1 m x 1 m can be placed next to
the green box. Any surplus can be put in an
open bag next to the green box.
Buildings with 15 or more units offer large
recycling containers on wheels to their
residents.
Green boxes and recycling containers on
wheels must be placed on the curb before
8:00 a.m., rain or shine. Make sure they do
not interfere with snow removal or street
cleaning.
To obtain your green box or directions
for recycling, please contact your Accès

safe, prescribed manner and cannot exceed
5 cubic metres in volume. Pay extra
attention to nails and glass.
Hazardous Domestic Waste
