Montreal Cooks goes to reprint
With nearly 10,000 copies sold and more than $300,000 donated directly to the Women’s Health Mission of the McGill University Health Centre, Montreal Cooks is an incredible success story. Now, with demand remaining high and almost all of the first printing sold out, we are pleased to announce that more copies will be available soon. This collection of sumptuous recipes from the city’s top restaurants will continue to be on sale at the MUHC Foundation and at retail outlets across the island, and, thanks to a national distribution deal with Shoppers Drug Mart, will bring a taste of Montreal to pharmacies across Canada.

On April 6, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, through its official representative in Canada, the Hong Kong Economic & Trade Office (HKETO), will present a unique concert at the elegant Monument-National venue. The event, entitled Friendship Across the Ocean, will feature some of the best professional musicians from the Toronto Chinese Orchestra and the Overseas Chinese Music Ensemble, as well as renowned solo-ists playing traditional Chinese instruments. At the suggestion of Women’s Health campaign co-chair Pierrette Wong, the HKETO has chosen the Women’s Health Mission of the McGill University Health Centre as the sole beneficiary of all proceeds from the evening.
