Winter Carnival Opens in Québec
By Linda Tancs
Starting today, the Québecois celebrate their white nights at Carnaval. Unfortunately, violent storms have postponed the opening night festivities, but as they say, le diâble est aux vaches, so the show will carry on tomorrow. Thereafter, you’ll have until 17 February to follow Bonhomme (the snowman mascot) around the various events taking place during the annual event: the snow bath, canoe race, dogsled race, sleigh race, and soapbox derby, to name a few. And don’t miss the parade, celebrating Québec City’s 400th anniversary, on the 9th or the 16th.
