This is my first podcast. While I am learning how to use this platform, you will probably see things evolve and change.

My first topic concerns a decision by STM (Société de transport de Montréal) to dramatically change the 195 bus route removing connections from Ville Saint-Pierre in the Eastern end of Lachine. Below I have included a link to an interview on the CBC radio program Daylight Montreal taped on 20-SEP-2024.

This interview came about as a result of a complaint about the local 195 bus route being dramatically changed. The old route would have taken me 1 bus and about 20 minutes to get to The Teapot 55+ Seniors Centre (one of my new favorite places in Lachine) but now it takes over an hour and sometimes up to two buses.

You can find the broadcast by clicking on Podcast in the CBC LISTEN app and then search for Daybreak Montreal or just click on the link below:
