The largest English CEGEP in the world!

When Shade used to tell me stories about his time at Dawson, referring to it as "the largest English CEGEP in the world", I never quite grasped the enormity of the phrase; until yesterday that is, when I went to Dawson to meet Alex Somma, who teaches a media course at New School. There are over 8000 students in attendance at this one colossal building in downtown Montreal. Alex has a radio show at Dawson so I got to be his guest. We made up fake news stories to amuse ourselves, since I don't think many people actually listen to the school radio.

Later that day Shade took me to an amazing restaurant called Santropol for dinner. His sandwich had this delicious hot pepper jelly in it so I picked up a wee bottle of the stuff to bring back to this bland Anglophone province for use with SpucChuck. On our way back, I took a picture of this crazy street that had 1-way signs pointing in both directions! When we got to his place, Finn was over so I had an engaging & entertaining conversation with them & their mother, lubricated by a lot of wine.
