The new bridge to Île Bizard finally has a new name. And, it's honouring a hockey legend.. who had a connection to the island. Guy Lafleur wasn’t born in Île Bizard but he lived there for years. He died in 20-22 after battling lung cancer.

Montreal's nightlife has become one of many municipal election issues. Experts say venues are closing because of rising costs, gentrification and fines from noise complaints. So now people working in the industry are calling on the mayoral candidates to do more for nightlife.

Ahead of the November 2nd municipal election voting day, we asked future voters what they want from Montreal’s leaders. Grade 6 students at Roslyn Elementary and Grade 11 students at LaurenHill Academy had plenty to say about how they would improve Montreal in the future.
