Back in '76 I was in Montreal for the Olympics. The CBC set my family up in a nice apartment on Lincoln ave, and from the top of the building (I remember it had a rooftop pool) we watched the fireworks for St. Jean Batiste day.
Unreal.
They were set off over Mount Royal park, and I'm telling you it was the best fireworks show I've seen in my life. I don't know if they kicked it up a notch due to the Olympics or what, but it was spectactular.
The downside of that day's celebration was the next day, when the entire park was found to be covered in trash, cups, wrappers, cans, bottles, broken glass, rolls of toilet paper etc etc. The Frenchies are a messy bunch.
