La Ville de Montréal abolit 200 postes

Montreal plans to cut 2,000 positions to save up to $370 million over four years, as announced by Mayor Valérie Plante. This measure aims at reducing payroll expenses and improving the city's financial efficiency. However, the plan has faced criticism regarding potential impacts on public services and job insecurity for city employees. The mayor assured that essential services won't be affected and the reductions would happen through attrition and retirements, rather than layoffs. This decision is part of a broader strategy to manage the city's finances more sustainably.
