MONTRÉAL, April 7, 2017 /CNW Telbec/ - There are a lot of events on tap this week to celebrate Montréal's 375th anniversary. First, a talented group of skaters, all residents of the Ahuntsic-Cartierville borough, will turn the spotlight on the city's past in their music and choreography. The city's history will also be brought to life through facts and anecdotes recounted by the curious and friendly Jean-Philippe Wauthier, an original series that will enchant audiences over several weeks. You won't want to miss it! And this time, Rosemont-Petite Patrie and Ville-Marie are the destinations of choice for maple taffy lovers from across the city!
