Protest Outside The Link

There was a small protest outside The Link's offices Monday afternoon. Witnesses say those involved were calling for the resignation of newspaper editor Justin Giovanetti.

The roots of the protest are unclear. Some say the relationship between Giovanetti and Concordia Student Union councillor Lex Gill was in question.

Members of Concordia's Hillel were also in attendance. They reportedly believed the call for his resignation was due to a recent article in which he made negative comments about member Tomer Shavit. 


Man Dies Trying to Building Igloo

A Chambly man met his death while trying to build an igloo in his backyard. Yan Lavalliere was digging when the igloo collapsed on him.

His girlfriend’s five-year-old son was there to witness the accident. Relatives who were there tried to save him.

Police say they don’t know why the igloo broke down. They say he probably died from the amount of snow that fell on him. Officers were forced to shovel a lot to dig him out.

Lavalliere’s girlfriend hopes this accident will serve as an example for others. She says it's a dangerous activity and that it's not always children who are hurt, it's adults too.

Brewers are preparing for a raise in the cost of barley next year. Because of weather-related flooding in Canada and other countries, stores of barley crops have dropped.
