Since I re-loaded the Province of Quebec, I also took the chance of updating the WG numbers on that territory. It will be a lot easier and more relevant to have these numbers actually attached to real jurisdictions!
      Other news, 61-99-16, the Painchaud bridge at St-Méthode up in Roberval county will be moved near the village next week and will undergo a complete restoration before being re-set on an arm of the Ticouapé river close to the village. This from Johanne Dufour and Germain Baril of ACTION ST MÉTHODE in charge of the project. The former owner gave the bridge away to the organization which is now seeking funding at the provincial level to save, protect and insure that this structure will be part of an extensive new strategy to develop and protect historic sites and buildings all over the province of Quebec... it is about time!
