Le maire de l’arrondissement du Sud-Ouest et vice-président du comité exécutif de la Ville de Montréal, Benoît Dorais, a annoncé jeudi l’aménagement en 2022 d’une place commémorative à la mémoire des victimes de la COVID-19.
Le lieu est situé à proximité du centre d’hébergement Yvon-Brunet, dans le district de Saint-Paul-Émard-Saint-Henri-Ouest.
Pour souligner la Journée de commémoration nationale en mémoire des victimes de la COVID-19, l’arrondissement du Sud-Ouest mettra en berne son drapeau, vendredi.
Une marche sera organisée par le Comité aîné de l’organisme Concentration Ville-Émard/Côte-Saint-Paul à 12 h 30 à partir du métro Angrignon, suivie d’une cérémonie de commémoration devant le centre d’hébergement Yvon-Brunet.
«Étant donné la nature dévastatrice de la pandémie dans les milieux de vie de l'arrondissement, il nous apparaît essentiel d'honorer la mémoire de nos concitoyennes et concitoyens décédés de la COVID-19», a indiqué Benoit Dorais dans un communiqué.
«Ce lieu permet de se souvenir, d'honorer la mémoire des personnes décédées seules, de se recueillir et de se diriger vers un avenir meilleur», a mentionné le Comité aîné de Concertation Ville-Émard-Côte Saint-Paul.

Critics have called it a stunt to invite sympathy. Yet Amuriat says campaigning without shoes is a protest and that those who do not get its symbolism are missing a point.
Uganda is due to hold a general election on January 14. Amuriat and another opposition candidate, Bobi Wine have had their rallies violently dispersed by security forces or been arrested.
In mid-November, scores of people were killed as security forces attempted to quell protests against the arrest and detention of Bobi Wine.
Police has accused the candidates of addressing huge gatherings in contravention of regulations on COVID-19 prevention.
Swollen feet
In an interview with one of the dailies in Uganda, Amuriat said his feet hurt a lot and has to pour cold water on them in between campaign stops for some relief.
Doctors have cautioned him on the potential danger of contracting tetanus from cuts to his feet.
Yet Amuriat remains adamant. He says by refusing to wear shoes, he’s standing in solidarity with people whose wealth and opportunities have been stolen by the country’s longtime ruler Yoweri Museveni.
