Valérie Plante, Denis Coderre honour veterans on Remembrance Day

After weeks of campaigning against each other in the race for Montreal mayor, Denis Coderre and Valérie Plante locked arms Saturday to honour the memory of Canada’s fallen soldiers.
The former rivals laid a wreath at Place du Canada while the Black Watch pipe and drum band played on in the biting November cold. Coderre appeared sullen in one of his last public outings as mayor.
For Plante, who was elected last Sunday, the ceremony was a chance to absorb the weight of her new office.
