THE LORD OF THE RINGS IN MONTREAL - EXHIBITION - 
By Bernard Bujold - 
The Ring / L'Anneau de la Place Ville-Marie in Montreal is now exposed above the promenade and only needs lighting. But already, on Sunday June 19, 2022, hundreds of curious people came to photograph the $5 million sculpture and for many to take a selfie. We can almost predict that the Ring will become a kind of curiosity comparable to the Eiffel Tower in Paris or the Statue of Liberty in New York.

By Bernard Bujold - 
Ulysses never stays long in the opening ceremonies, especially when the rain threatens in the sky... Wanting to get ahead of the storm on Thursday afternoon (June 16, 2022), he quickly left Place Ville Marie and the Oval still on the ground, but it was a waste of time as he was caught by the storm in the garden of the National Bank... 
Fortunately there was a kind of roof over the stairs but he had to wait almost an hour before the storm stopped! 
But we can say that a storm over the city has something a little romantic, especially if you have a roof over your head...
