    The Bulletin: A Complete Wrap-Up of April's last days [Issue #22]

    The Bulletin is a collection of what's happened, what’s happening, and what’s to come in and around Montreal.

    Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, step right up and join us on a magical and magnificent journey, a show that'll knock your socks off, the likes of which have never been seen this side of the stratosphere: The intrigue and suspense of the city of Montreal!

    Marvel at colourful construction cones and crumbling metro tunnels! Pop queens and drag queens! A slanderous history that goes from Confederate spies to day raves and roller disco of the present—all in one splendiferous locale of good times and sublime stupidity, guaranteeing spectacles you have never before seen in your life and may never see again.

    Gorge on poutine and bagels, guzzle maple syrup, or drink one of those weird and unnecessarily giant Sloches from a Couche-Tard! Or try your luck on our amazing obstacle pothole course!
