'Tis the Saturday before Christmas and as is tradition in Montreal, it is open House at Montreal City Hall today.
Montrealers young and old are invited to join celebrations of the holiday season from 10am until 1:00pm this afternoon. Mayor Valérie Plante will greet Montrealers in the formal lounge, where dignitaries to the city are usually welcomed.
A number of city council members will also be at the event and the City is promising a number of fun activities and surprises for visitors in the hall of honor - including a visit from the big guy himself, Santa Claus.
