Emanations from the Corpse of Little Burgundy

Little Burgundy was a small vibrant part of Central Montreal. Perhaps somewhat sadly that area no longer exists having been changed largely through gentrification. But the area and its residents had many worthwhile stories to tell. However up till now I am unaware of anyone undertaking to tell any of them. So in this mini novel I am adopting the posture of a reporter who will try to recall some of the most noteworthy stories about this place. Hopefully the few stories that I have selected will give the reader a sense of what day-to-day life was like for those of us who lived there at that time.
