				<title>Tramway to the mountain?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ From

http://www.cyberpresse.ca/article/20070414/CPACTUALITES/704140805/5155/CPACTUALITES

<blockquote>
L'organisme Les Amis de la montagne va demander à la Ville de Montréal de considérer un prolongement de la ligne de tramway du Havre jusqu'au mont Royal afin de réduire le nombre de véhicules qui y circulent.
&nbsp;
		</blockquote>

P.S. Just in case you didn't know, my understanding is that le tramway du Havre is  going to go through the old port right where there's the freight train tracks, by LaChine canal.

<blockquote>La ligne pourrait aller de Berri-UQAM au square Dorchester en passant par la rue de la Commune et la rue Peel.&nbsp;
		</blockquote>

				<title>Le &quot;nouveau visage&quot; of St-Catherine @ St-Laurent</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ LeDevoir published a short article on our "dream city" mentioning several well-known and not-so-well-known projects. Tramways were mentioned, of course - all 200 km of them, but there were some new tidbits, too.

http://www.ledevoir.com/2007/03/17/135273.html

For, example, as useful as it is to get your gas @ at the corner of St-Laurent and St-Catherine, perhaps such a central location deserves something other than a gas station. Borough Ville-Marie seems to be thinking along the same lines:

<blockquote>Il faut dire que, il y a quelque mois déjà, le maire de l'arrondissement Ville-Marie, Benoît Labonté, avait fait connaître la proposition architecturale qui allait donner au carrefour Saint-Laurent/Sainte-Catherine un nouveau visage. Et surtout, lors de cette annonce, on informait que Gaétan Demers, à qui l'on doit cette réussite qu'est le Quartier international, serait le maître d'oeuvre du projet. &nbsp;

				<title>Green Party: Toll Booths Would Pay For Tramway</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Here's a little pre-election grub: the Green party has proposed toll boths on bridges which would generate enough money to pay for the tramway network:

http://www.radio-canada.ca/nouvelles/electionsQc2007/2007/03/11/011-pvq-transport.shtml

<blockquote><i>
Le chef du Parti vert, Scott McKay, a proposé dimanche d'installer des postes de péage sur les ponts de la région de Montréal. Un péage de 2 $ permettrait selon M. McKay d'accumuler quelque 500 millions de dollars par année. Les trois quarts de cette somme serviraient au transport en commun, notamment à la création d'un réseau de 200 km de tramways électriques fabriqués par Bombardier.</i>&nbsp;
		</blockquote>

What do you guys (especially those commuting from South Shore) think? 
$2 ?
