It’s the end of an era in downtown Montreal. The iconic sign of the now-defunct Hudson Bay Company’s flagship store on Ste-Catherine St. was brought down Monday. Workers could be seen at the landmark at Phillips Square — renamed The Bay in 1972 — taking down the grand yellow letters.

A fire that caused extensive damage to a kosher restaurant in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood is being investigated as a possible arson, Montreal police have said. Firefighters were called around 3:15 a.m. to a blaze on Décarie Blvd. between Plamondon Ave. and Vézina St. The building, which houses Nöam, a kosher restaurant serving Mediterranean, Italian and international dishes, as well as a garage, sustained major damage before firefighters brought it under control.

Montreal police spokesperson Jean-Pierre Brabant said the fences were removed “for safety reasons.” High fences of the type that were in place around the area would be “potentially dangerous if an evacuation were necessary,” he said.

“I think it would be a shame if (this) were to end, because we live in a free society, so I feel like we should be able to." A day after Quebec passed its expanded secularism law banning collective public prayer, hundreds of people walked silently through the streets of Montreal to honour Jesus’s last day on earth, as they do every Good Friday in a procession known as the Way of the Cross.

"The threat is controlled." Although officers on the scene initially told The Gazette they were searching for a possible second suspect, Montreal police Chief Fady Dagher later said he believes there was only one suspect involved in today's shootings in the city's Côte-des-Neiges area. “We preferred to enlarge all of the crime scenes to be sure that we had the situation completely controlled,” Dagher said at a press conference Monday afternoon.

Montreal Mayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada is calling for stricter gun control in Canada in light of Monday’s shooting that left three people dead in Côte-des-Neiges. The mayor made the call during a news conference Tuesday shortly after visiting with residents and merchants in the neighbourhood. “We can’t live in a country, or a city or community, where you’re at risk of dying from a gun,” the mayor said. “What happened yesterday should not happen anywhere else.” Read the latest:

Montreal Mayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada has addressed the growing controversy over Air Canada CEO Michael Rousseau's unilingual response to Sunday night's fatal collision in New York. While the mayor said it was not her role to decide whether Rousseau should resign — something a provincial minister called for on Wednesday — she added that she understands why others are calling for it. "Treating people with dignity also means speaking their language," she said. “And I think he failed in that regard — not just once, but on several occasions now.” Full story: #PolMTL

Why was the sky in Montreal a hazy yellow this morning? Smoke from wildfires raging in Ontario and the Northwest Territories were responsible for tinting the sun orange and the skies around Montreal a dull yellow early Tuesday. While the phenomenon coincided with a weather system in the Montreal area that could bring severe thunderstorms, hail and perhaps even a tornado over the course of the day, there was, in this case, nothing more to the presence of the eerie effect than an unfortunate piece of timing.

“To have passengers sit on the airplane for three hours is not what I would call prompt evacuation. To me, looking at it, it’s dangerously slow.” The reported three-hour wait passengers faced before leaving an Air Canada jet that veered off a taxiway at Montreal’s Trudeau airport on Thursday is one of the most concerning aspects of the incident, according to McGill aviation expert John Gradek.

Something is happening here and it’s about much more than hockey, writes The Gazette's Brendan Kelly. Kelly was just outside the steel-fenced-in fan-jam area beside the Bell Centre Friday night, standing around with thousands of fans watching Game 3 of the Montreal Canadiens-Tampa Bay Lightning playoff series. It had been a beautiful sunny spring day, but it was pretty darn chilly by the time the two teams went into overtime for the third straight game. Then Hutson scored and everyone went nuts.
