Doug Hincks wanted to do something to help the environment. That brought him to the Metro supermarket in the Canex Mall in Valcartier, where he found a Green Apple.

Renowned calèche driver Billy Carol Gallichon passed away at St. Brigid’s Home at the age of 81.
Danny Doyle, friend and fellow driver, spoke of Gallishon’s dedication during his 46 years on the job. “Billy was a legend. He worked seven days a week. It wasn’t work for him, it was a pleasure.”
