Colourful Street: Bernard Avenue and Duck

colourful street: The law forbids all new temples - of any denomination - from opening on the mixed commercial and residential strip but no one in the area has any illusions that the main group targeted is the borough growing Hasidic Jewish community, according to CTV. If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck it a duck, said Alex Werzberger, a spokesman for Outremont Hasidic Jews. Citizens will vote in a referendum on whether to overturn a bylaw banning places of worship on Bernard Avenue, a busy and colourful street in the borough of Outremont. They dont want us here. Outremont councillor Celine Forget, who is spearheading the campaign to ban new temples on the avenue, said in an email that Werzberger comments are part of the Jewish lobby trying to attract the attention of journalists. They are hoping to squeeze us out. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
