La description

Montreal has a long history of militant municipalism: the emergence and repression of the FRAP, the rise and fall of the Montreal Citizens Movement and its left opposition, the rise and eclipse of Ecology Montreal, and the Democratic Coalition. Projet Montreal appeared to be carrying forward this tradition. However, in advance of the 2021 municipal elections in Montreal, much has changed. The editors gathered over 20 activists, actors, and thinkers to address the major themes facing the city: housing, green spaces, transportation, labour, and social justice.
