2018 was a year of change and new faces
If
2018 could be summed up in one word it would be “change”.

meanwhile, were reduced to third party status.
 Celebrating
one of the last traditional British pubs in Orléans
In
an age when life seems to be speed-ing up at an ever-increasing
pace, it’s nice to be able to step out of the fast lane
and into a place where everything slows down and you can
seek comfort and refuge as well as a perfectly poured pint
of ale and the best fish and chips in town. For me, that
place is the Royal Oak on St. Joseph Boulevard.
