Agricultural fair Expo Brome, explored through the eyes of Marie-France Coallier
In the picturesque village of Brome, Eastern Townships, the annual Labour Day weekend was marked by the vibrant Expo Brome agricultural fair. This year's event showcased a variety of competitions and activities, including those for sheep, cattle, horses, and horticulture, as well as exhibitions and musical performances.
One photographer who captured the spirit of Expo Brome is Marie-France Coallier. Known for her work with Le Devoir and cultural events, Coallier's photographs have been featured in numerous articles related to Quebec, Canada. Her images from the Expo Brome event are a testament to the event's energy and charm.
Marie-France Coallier's summer collection of photographs, recently published, includes her best shots from the Expo Brome. These photos, showcasing the competitions, exhibitions, and performances, offer a unique and engaging perspective of the event. For those who were unable to attend, Coallier's photographs provide an opportunity to experience the Expo Brome's atmosphere.
In addition to her work at Expo Brome, Coallier's summer collection also features images from other events. A selection of these photos is available in a video format, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the summer scenes captured by Coallier's lens.
Unfortunately, the news of the passing of two prominent figures in the Quebec media industry has cast a shadow over the summer season. The general director of Publications BLD, as well as magazine editor Isabelle Vaillancourt, both passed away recently. Their contributions to the media landscape will be deeply missed.
Meanwhile, the decision by the Legault government to refuse an independent review by the BAPE (Bureau d'audiences publiques sur l'environnement) for the Northvolt plant project has raised concerns. The project, initially planned for the region, was ultimately aborted, leaving questions about the future of similar projects and the role of independent reviews in their approval process.
As we move into autumn, the memories of the lively Expo Brome, captured by Marie-France Coallier's lens, serve as a reminder of the beauty and vibrancy of the summer season in Brome, Eastern Townships. Her photographs, now available for viewing, offer a unique and engaging perspective of the event, making it possible for many to experience the magic of Expo Brome, even from afar.
