City councillors are pushing for a stronger stance on Quebec's proposed anti-tobacco legislation.

According to the Montreal Gazette, eight councillors, including NDG-Cote-des-Neiges' Marvin Rotrand and Lachine's Claude Dauphin, are asking not only to increase cigarette prices- but also to ban them in playgrounds, beaches, and athletic fields.

The McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) completed moving of all their facilities to the new super-hospital in NDG, according to the Montreal Gazette

This was the super hospital's third and final transfer, and has been touted to be the largest hospital relocation in Canadian history.

Sunday's move took over two hours to manage, and was reported to be as successful as the first two major moves last month.

The site of the former Montreal General Hospital downtown will continue to be used as a trauma centre, with new psychiatric, short stay and emergency units.
