Tiny train models, vintage items on display at the Montreal Model Train Exhibition this weekend

Tiny train models and vintage items are on display at the Montreal Train Exhibition this weekend. Hundreds of vintage railway items, many of which visitors are allowed to operate, will be on display at the 36th edition of the Montreal Model Train Exposition this weekend. Since 1989, Ivan Dow has been organizing this model train expo, featuring many of his own collections. 'There's 240 tables of different things to look at and people selling things and modelers and all sorts of fun stuff going on,' he says. For example, families can try operating a vintage train set, says Dow. 'We have ones that they can drive the trains. We have ones on the floor. We have ones a little bit higher up in the air,' he says. Visitors can also marvel at Christian Desrosier's tiny recreation of the West Island train line extending into Hudson, complete with a diorama of Sandy Beach and Jack Layton Park. Hobbyist Georges Barre helped create this train-scape using photographs and satellite views to get the details right. 'The exciting thing with this hobbyist, you can use your imagination and bring your spirit to the layout,' he says. He also says visitors should be on the constant look-out for jokes tucked into the scenes, like tiny people on the roof of a brasserie. 'The staff are up there with the cases of beer, and the firemen are trying to get them down. They're not coming down,' jokes Barre. A handmade train set by CEGEP Gerald-Godin student Marc Provost has working signal lights. He explains how he became a model train enthusiast. 'When I was a kid, I lived right next to the railroad in the area. And then when I moved to Pointe-Claire, right next to the train line,' he says. And this expo has much more than trains. Look for miniature villages, tiny boats and full-size Meccano sets. 'Meccano is alive and well in Canada, mostly in Ontario, and there's several exhibitions in Ontario where mcanulty is shown, and that's where some pretty good model makers are. We have some good ones in Montreal too,' says collector Jim Bobyn. This year's show is a fundraiser for Sun Youth, the non-profit organization offering services from food assistance to emergency care. Proceeds from this weekend will go towards day camp and youth activities. 'It really goes to our kids, our youth programs. So all sports activities, we make sure the kids can have access to activities regardless of their family revenue,' Ann St-Arnaud of Sun Youth explains. Tickets cost $10 for children and $15 for adults. The model train expo is open June 7 and 8 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Edgar Rouleau Arena in Dorval.

What's with the Oilers and this Pink Pony Club song?

Article content Wayne Gretzky might not know if it's a band or a song, but Pink Pony Club, by Chappell Roan, has been adopted by the Oilers as their unofficial celebration song inside the dressing room. It's grown to the point where the organist plays a slow (and equally as popular among Oilers faithful) angelic version ahead of opening faceoff. But good luck getting any of the players to let you in on exactly why, what it means or where the new ditty even came from in the first place. 'I'm going to keep that one within the team,' defenceman Evan Bouchard said at the podium prior to the puck dropping on the Stanley Cup Finals earlier this week. Whether it's their musical version of a lucky rabbit's foot, or something that began as nothing more than an inside joke, the Oilers have to be laughing at just how much of a stir the song has created around not only Edmonton, but the rest of the NHL.

Alberta resumes buying U.S. alcohol and gambling machines, months after pause meant to fight tariffs

Alberta is buying American alcohol and gambling machines again, three months after Premier Danielle Smith announced restrictions aimed at fighting back against U.S. tariffs. Service Alberta Minister Dale Nally says the move signals a 'renewed commitment to open and fair trade' with the United States. Smith said in March that the province would no longer buy U.S. alcohol and video lottery terminals, or sign contracts with American companies. That came a day after U.S. President Donald Trump slapped heavy tariffs on Canadian goods and energy. Nally says the decision to resume buying U.S. alcohol and gambling machines 'sets the stage for more constructive negotiations' ahead of a renewal of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico trade agreement. Ontario, Manitoba reach internal trade agreement, promise alcohol sales deal by end of June The minister says Albertans are encouraged to continue supporting local producers, even as more U.S. options return to store shelves. Nally said in April that the province was pausing its policy around procurement from U.S. companies 'in the spirit of diplomacy.' He said since the province's retaliatory measures were first announced in early March, the Trump administration had put a hold on further tariffs.
