Save Monday June 25th for a Big Party on Mount Royal

Quebec's biggest celebration is coming up two weeks from now, the Fête natonale.  The official day is June 24, but since that's a Sunday this year, Monday also is a holiday.

And that's why NPD Outremont is organizing a big barbecue/fête champêtre on Mount Royal for the afternoon of Monday, June 25.  The holiday is always a good time for a party, but this year we have an even bigger reason: it will be a chance to congratulate our MP and the new NDP leader Thomas Mulcair.  He'll be on hand from 5 p.m. but the barbecue will be ready for 4 p.m. 

Everyone is invited.  There will be beef, chicken and tofu kabobs, pita and tzasiki sauce, and Quebec strawberries which should be at their peak.  Please bring drinks and salads to share with your friends.  Cost: the barbecue is free, but your donatioins will be happily accepted.

And wear orange!
