It's amazing what you can find at the Newseum! Le Journal de Montréal is a daily tabloid newspaper. It is the largest-circulation French-language newspaper in North America; it is also Canada’s largest tabloid. It is famous for its sensationalism and populist Québec-nationalist perspective. On any given day, it can be counted to provide lurid coverage of the weather, crime and Montreal Canadien’s hockey. The front page of the issue of March 8 furnished a splendid example: The trial of two "crapules" (= scumbags); four pages on a late-winter blizzard ("tough on the morale - and it's not over"); and a game against the hated Boston Bruins ("the Habs want their revenge!") On January 24, 2009, the management of the Journal locked out its unionized staff. For the past two years, the newspaper has continued to publish with the use of strikebreakers, managers, and wire services. So much for populism!

Centre Ice With the Rocket – The Forum, Montreal

The legendary Forum -- the long-time home of the Montreal Canadiens hockey team -- has been converted into a mall. They marked centre ice with this face off circle. A few seats from the old arena were preserved, although they aren't in their original positions. There's also a roped-off statue of the iconic #9 Maurice "Rocket" Richard sitting on a bench.
