• La Presse writes about the lack of rapport between the government of Québec and the metropolis of Montréal, and the looks at the consequences of said.


• A new CMHC study suggests that, between rising prices for housing on the island of Montréal and improved transit off-Island, it might be cheaper for many to live on the mainland. The Montreal Gazette reports.


• Turning the abandoned Berri bus station into a distribution depot sounds like a good idea to me. CTV News reports.


• The newly renovated Dorchester Square looks lovely. Global News reports.


• The Montreal Gazette looks at new strict rules on Airbnb that will hopefully limit the impact on the rental housing sector.
