A major water main break in northeastern Montreal on Friday forced evacuations, damaged roads and submerged vehicles.
The city said it ordered the evacuation of 18 buildings and cut power to the area as a precaution. No one was injured, and Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante said the priority was to have power and water restored as soon as possible to the affected sector of the city’s Villeray-St-Michel-Park-Extension borough.
