The expansion of the REM is not only reducing car dependency in the West Island it also opens up the West-Island to those who live downtown and don’t own a car. This expansion allows all Montreals to experience all the Island has to offer.
Yesterday I got to present my Master’s work at the @cpsa-acsp.bsky.social conference in Ottawa! It was great to reconnect with friends and colleagues and share what I’ve been working on for the past two years. Thank you everyone for all the great feedback.
@popovaprof.bsky.social and @dietlinds.bsky.social wrote a great introduction to the project we're working on. We find that Europeans' responses to Russian aggression are shaping EU politics.

The train was also packed today and last night with West-Islanders headed downtown for the Habs game.
