It was a Canada Day to remember in Pierrefonds-Roxboro!
The Montreal borough threw an epic celebration featuring hometown beloved band Simple Plan, who performed a free show in front of over 20,000 people.
The event, held near Pierrefonds Comprehensive High School, was a hit—with food trucks, a fair, and activities for the whole family.
Members of Simple Plan, who grew up in the West Island, took time to reflect on their roots. Lead singer Pierre Bouvier reminisced about skateboarding through the streets of Pierrefonds, hanging out at Fairview, and grabbing a bite at Lafleur—though he made sure to shout out La Belle Province too.
