  Our fellow friend D-V-S squatted there for few months ! And he discovered a forgotten Barber Shop ,hidden behind ventilation shaft or something,intact ! Living close to it,I got the chance to enter briefly...but now I regret not exploring it !

  Does anyone know any history about the building at right? Looks to be standard issue 1950s federal government architecture, but what was it built for?

  Si je me souviens bien, mes parents qui étaient postiers m'ont dit que ça déjà servi pour Postes Canada aussi. Ça serait pas les bureaux du SCRS aussi?

  When the roof tock fire 2-3 years? ago, armed officer blocked the way to fireman to the 2 most upper floor. They preferred let the building burn to dust than letting untrusted people in. Fireman had to find a external ladder/crane to get on the roof. After this incident took place they moved the so-secret department elsewhere. But it is still secured

  Secret-not-so-secret-anymore I guess lol I love men in black... And those fine "undercover agents" that dress as anarchists to infiltrate public demonstrations at political summits.

  They are like weed - they are everywhere. And sometimes you do wonder. Was it really worth our tax money to have agents in the crown at Montebello?????????
