Special weather statement blankets Montreal as failed hurricane approaches

Tropical Depression Gordon, which never quite made hurricane status as it slammed into Mississippi and Alabama last week, is expected to rain down on Montreal early this week.
While border crossings are notoriously busy at the end of every weekend, Gordon was expected to make its way into Canada from the central U.S. unfettered on Sunday.
Environment Canada warns residents of Montreal, Laval, Longueuil and Châteauguay to expect between 30 and 50 millimetres of rain starting Monday afternoo
