A 51-year-old man who was stabbed to death outside Place Bell in central Laval early on Sunday had ties to street gangs, according to news reports on Monday.
Vick Sévère Paul, who was identified as the victim, died in hospital where he was transported after apparently being stabbed during a fight with attackers which took place on Claude-Gagné St., near Le Corbusier Blvd.
Speaking to media on Monday, a Laval Police spokesperson suggested the stabbing might not have been related to the victim’s known ties to organized crime, which dated back more than a decade.
The Montreal Gazette reported that Vick Sévère Paul was the half-brother of Lamartine Sévère (Polo) Paul, a street gang leader who was gunned down in Laval in August 2012 just 36 hours after Chenier Dupuy, the leader of the Bo-Gars street gang was killed outside a steakhouse in Galeries D’Anjou.
The daily said Vick Sévère Paul was also the cousin of Ducarme (Kenny) Joseph, another street gang leader who was killed in Montreal at the beginning of August 2014.

The Laval Police Dept. says it has arrested four young male adults suspected of participating in a car theft ring.
“On the night of last 28 April, officers noticed a vehicle with four suspects aboard arriving in the parking lot of a hotel establishment,” the SPL said in a news release.
“Two of the suspects approached a Jeep and one of them got in through the roof. Moments later, the Jeep’s headlights were activated, at which point the police arrested the four suspects who had been caught in the act of attempting to steal the vehicle.”
Abdella Affane and Mirwiss Nazrani, both age 19, and Ahmed Mekkika and Aymen Ouassim, both age 18, were arrested.
According to the LPD, Affane and Nazrani were released with conditions to follow after appearing in court at the Palais de Justice in Laval.
In the meantime, police in Brampton ON took Mekkika and Ouassim into custody after their court appearance in Laval, as there was an outstanding arrest warrant for them related to an attempted murder charge.
A fire that raged through a marina on the Rivière des Mille Îles in northern Saint-François last Sunday morning is under investigation by the Laval Police after destroying more than 20 boats.
The fire was already well underway when Laval Fire Dept. personnel arrived at Marina Bo-Bi-No on Mille-Îles Blvd. around 4 a.m.
Firefighters reported several explosions as fuel in boats parked in the marina ignited.
According to the LFD, the boats had been stacked closely together for the winter, so that even a small fire was able to spread rapidly.
Although no injuries were reported, the cause of the fire remained unknown Monday morning. An investigation is expected to take weeks.
Lanvac is Canada’s last domestically-owned third-party alarm monitoring wholesaler
Lanvac Surveillance, Canada’s leading third-party wholesaler of alarm monitoring services, recently marked a milestone – a partnership to provide support for Ukraine-based Ajax Systems’ intrusion alarm products in Canada.
Since the promotional symbol of Ajax’s slogan (“We stand against evil”) is a short but rather intimidating baseball bat, Lanvac’s Stephanos Georgoudes was poised bat in hands last week, as if to slam out a home-run, at the Lanvac booth during the Security Canada East trade show at the Laval Sheraton.
Security pros gathered
It was the second Security Canada East show to be held live and in-person since the onset of the Covid pandemic more than three years ago.

With Security Canada conventions also taking place this year in western and central Canada, it was time again to focus on building and renewing relationships with thousands of professionals deeply involved in Canada’s security services sector.
“Ajax is exploding all over Europe and they have just entered the Canadian market,” Georgoudes, who is one of several members of a family deeply involved with Lanvac, said in an interview with Newsfirst Multimedia.
Standing up to bullies
Just as feisty Ukraine has been struggling for more than a year in an armed conflict to protect the integrity of its territory as well as its national identity, Georgoudes suggested Ajax has similarly garnered a reputation for combativeness – and “they don’t let bullies push them around, if you know what I mean,” he said.
Ajax’s product line includes hardware for intrusion detection, fire detection, water leak prevention, as well as hardware and software for comfort and productivity. Lanvac is now the first central monitoring network in Canada to integrate and support them.
In spite of some diversification in recent years, Lanvac’s main business remains the wholesaling of alarm monitoring. As such, it provides service to more than 2,500 alarm companies across Canada. The company has multiple central stations across the country, and increasingly an an international scale.

Lanvac and Ukraine
Lanvac is betting big on Ajax, while showing support for Ukraine at the same time. “Our biggest partnership with a Ukraine-based company is Ajax,” Georgoudes said. He noted that Lanvac went the distance by making a generous donation to relief efforts for the purchase of medical supplies for those impacted in the war-torn nation.
In another significant development over the past year for Lanvac, the Montreal-headquartered company became this country’s last remaining family- and Canadian-owned central station wholesaler, following the acquisition by U.S.-based AvantGuard of Canada’s Armstrong Monitoring.
Proudly Canadian
“All other central stations in Canada are owned by a U.S. company,” said Georgoudes. “We remain a hundred per cent Canadian and family-owned, which is very important to our customers.” In view of changes like these sweeping the industry, he continued, Lanvac has seen a number of consumer-level alarm services dealers switch to Lanvac, “because the service has changed,” he said, while adding that “we’re benefiting from it.”
Georgoudes maintains, however, that ever since AvantGuard took over Armstrong, they’ve made changes which are more in line with U.S. alarm service practices than what Canadians are used to. “Canada and Canadians are a niche market and they are used to a certain level of service,” he said.
“Now with the changes being made by the U.S.-based company, that service is no longer there. Canadians want to be served a certain way and with a certain quality. And we maintain that level because we are one hundred per cent Canadian and family-owned.”

Lanvac the contender
Lanvac’s roots go back more than 40 years, during which the company developed a reputation for being dedicated to providing quality monitoring services for alarm dealers across the country and their customers.
Lanvac was founded by brothers John and Bill Georgoudes. Raised in Montreal’s Park Extension district – which was at one time home for most of the city’s Greeks – they turned their initially small burglar alarm company into the big-time contender which is now Lanvac.
Rooted in Montreal
Lanvac’s first monitoring station was in Montreal’s Park Extension neighbourhood, in the basement of a building at the corner of Durocher and Jean Talon. Bill got his elementary education at Barclay School on Wiseman Ave., while John attended Strathcona Academy in Outremont.
Bill received his secondary education at the former William Hingston High School, which has since become the area’s most important community centre. John attended another legendary secondary school, Baron Byng High, which was made famous by novelist Mordecai Richler.
The City of Laval received an award on April 20 in recognition of its proficiency in cultivating trees.
The award was presented by the Société internationale d’arboriculture du Québec (SIAQ) during an awards ceremony.
The Prix du Grand Mérite de la feuille d’or recognizes projects which have had a major impact within a community or region, while ensuring the well-being of trees in an urban forest or other settings.
Natalie Vézina, directrice of the SIAQ, Stéphane Boyer, mayor of Laval and Josée Séguin, president of the SIAQ.
“Arboriculture plays an important role in the preservation and the creation of healthy and inspiring green spaces, while also contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gases and combatting air pollution,” said Mayor Stéphane Boyer.
“The important transition by the City of Laval in forestry is well underway and will continue over the coming years,” he added. “I would like to point out the knowledge and dedication of our experts, who work diligently and guide us during this transition which allows us to protect and improve out forest heritage along with our natural spaces.”
Since 2014, the City of Laval has put into place a number of measures to protect its trees, while enlarging the tree canopy. Whereas the city’s team for this purpose numbered 20 or so employees nine years ago, that number has tripled since then.
The city has conducted an exhaustive inventory of its trees, finding that there are 120,000 “public” (city-owned) trees in Laval, not counting those in wooded areas. The city adopted an official tree policy in 2016. And in 2022 alone, the city planted 4,765 trees. In addition to all this, the City of Laval recently recognized an exceptional former employee in its tree maintenance department. Normand Venne, a forestry technician who retired in 2021, served for 22 years. He was awarded the Prix Alphonse-Guimond, recognizing excellence in the domain of arboriculture. Normand Venne was also known as a mentor who contributed to training several tree experts.
Laval to present major plan on security
The City of Laval has announced a series of actions on its territory aimed at improving shared space between pedestrians and motorists.
The planned interventions, approved by the executive-committee and tabled during the May 2 city council meeting, includes reducing speed limits across a large area of the city, the implementation of more than 1,000 traffic calming measures, improved security at intersections, and new policies to encourage active mobility.
City taking measures to empower metalurgy businesses
The city is making a $20,000 contribution to the Comité sectoriel de la main-d’œuvre du secteur de la fabrication métallique industrielle (CSMOFMI), which oversees worker standards in the metals business.
Around 130 businesses in Laval are involved in the metals sector, employing some 6,000 workers.
According to a statement from the city, the funding will be used to improve human resources, while helping with situations involving immigrants who are often hired on a temporary basis, as well as to improve training and skills development.
Laval Senior, LTM students excelled at recent science and robotics fairs
During the Sir Wilfrid Laurier School Board’s regular council meeting on April 26, the commissioners recognized the exceptional achievements of Laval Senior Academy at the recent Montreal Regional Science and Technology Fair, as well as Lake of Two Mountains High School students in the CRC Robotics Competition.
Laval Senior Academy hosted the 2023 Montreal Regional Science and Technology Fair, which took place from March 26 to 28. Over 100 students from 13 high schools and colleges participated in the event. It wouldn’t be an overstatement to say that LSA students performed exceptionally well.
Numerous distinctions
“Tonight, we want to recognize and celebrate the hard work and dedication of the students from Laval Senior Academy who received numerous distinctions and awards at the science fair,” said SWLSB chairman Paolo Galati during a presentation prior to the council’s meeting.
“Students, I cannot help but express my admiration and appreciation for your remarkable achievements,” he said. “Your dedication and hard work in pursuing your passion for science have not gone unnoticed. It is an honor for the council to recognize your outstanding accomplishments.”

Some winning projects
Present at SWLSB headquarters in Rosemère were Nathan Aruna and Christos Velmachos of LSA, representing their project, Reconnaissance and Medical Drone, as well as Leila Ramzy and Keira Ramzy for their project Artificial Pancreas.
Partcipating on Zoom were Tharaka Gun-arat-nam and Katya Pot-chka for their project Urban Fishing Farming in Montreal. Students who were not able to make it were Ethan Everton and Liam Valois Reilly for their project, The Future of Park Cleanliness, and Agam-veer Sansoe and Adam Pish-dadi for their project, Privacy Based RPi Home Server.
A real team effort
Three teams participated in the Québec Super Expo Science Fair held just a few days before: Ethan Everton and Liam Valois Reilly; Nathan Aruna and Christos Vel-machos; and Leila Ramzy and Keira Ramzy. Nathan Aruna and Christos Velmachos will be moving on to compete and represent the SWLSB at the 2023 Dallas Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) in May.
Galati said that without the tireless efforts of the steering committee comprised of Laval Senior Academy staff and head office staff who dedicated countless hours to organizing the Montreal Regional Science Fair held at LSA, none of this would have been possible.
“As we all know, hosting an event of this magnitude requires a tremendous amount of planning and coordination, and the committee’s commitment to excellence has made it all possible,” he said.
Committee’s commitment
He singled out for thanks Nathalie Rollin, LSA principal (represented by her VP Chris Kavallos), Jennifer Abrantes, LSA Vice-Principal. Silvana Di Medio, LSA Administration Officer, Cynthia Robillard, Science and Technology Consultant in PSD, Heather McPherson, Senior Science teacher at LSA and professor at McGill, Robin Bennett, Director, Information Ressources, Pascal Quenneville, Technician, Information Ressources, Susan O’Keeffe, Graphic Design Technician, Communications Services, and Yves Cholette, Coordinator, Material Resources and Transportation Department.
“We are immensely grateful to the committee for their hard work and unwavering dedication in making this event a success,” said Galati. “This was an ambitious undertaking, and yet, despite their regular duties and responsibilities, were able to make it happen. Education really is a team effort, and the success of our students in these events is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire school community.”
The council of commissioners paid homage to students from Lake of Two Mountains High School on the North Shore for their robotics accomplishments.
LTM student robotics
Moving on from science and tech to robotics, the council of commissioners paid homage to students from Lake of Two Mountains High School on the North Shore for their robotics accomplishments. Earlier in the year, LTM students participated in the CRC Robotics Competition Avia 2023, which took place in Laval from Feb. 16 to 18.
Led by science teacher Gordon Truesdale, 10 junior and 14 senior students participated in the competition and demonstrated their passion and dedication to the field of robotics. In all, they came back with three awards: first place for website conception; third place for website content; and Overall Outstanding participation in the CRC 2023 Competition.
“I think I can speak on behalf of all commissioners, and everyone present here when I say that we are all truly impressed by your innovation and resourcefulness.,” Galati said following a demonstration of the robot by the LTM students. “Seeing our students follow their passions, be curious, and work hard to learn and improve their abilities is truly inspiring.”
City deploys 1.2 kms. of anti-flood barriers alongside the Rivière des Mille Îles
With significant rain forecast for Laval since the beginning of this week and over the coming days, officials with the city are determined not to be caught off-guard with rising floodwaters this time, compared to past years when preventive measures were taken late.
Since April 20, according to the city, teams with the public works department have been setting up a variety of barriers in especially flood-prone spots (such as on Riviera St. along the Rivière des Mille Îles in Laval-Ouest) as a precaution against the threat of rising waters.

Flood guards deployed
According to an inventory conducted by the city, more than 209 homes in affected areas of Laval are threatened by flooding. As a result, the City of Laval has erected 1.2 kilometres of flood-resistant barriers (equal to 10 football fields), including a wall of massive concrete blocks, and Citadel anti-flood protective barriers.
New data from World Resources Institute’s Aqueduct Floods Tool projects that by 2030 the number of people worldwide impacted by floods will double from 65 million to 132 million due to river flooding, and from 7 million to 15 million due to coastal flooding.
Flood damage increases
The amount of urban property damaged by river floods is expected to increase threefold – from $157 billion to $535 billion, while it will increase tenfold due to coastal storm surge and sea level rise from $17 billion to $177 billion. By 2050, the numbers are expected to be catastrophic: 191 million, while 30 million people will be at risk of river and coastal flooding respectively each year.
The city says that Laval-Ouest is considered to be the sector of Laval most at risk of flooding from the Rivière des Mille Îles. As such, Riviera St. near 20th St. in particular is being monitored closely, since in past years it was the epicentre of flooding, while potentially heavy rainfall is expected all this week.
Measure of prevention
Although the city acknowledges that weather patterns are especially unpredictable these past few years, they say the flood barriers have been moved into place largely for preventive reasons – better to be prepared instead of leaving it for when it might be too late. In addition to the barriers, the city is not ruling out also resorting to hand-filled sandbags stacked strategically against the rising waters.

The city is inviting all Laval residents living in areas potentially vulnerable to rising floodwaters to take action as soon as possible to safeguard their property and possessions. As well, it should be remembered that the highest priority should always be accorded to safeguarding health and personal safety.
Get the latest flood info
In addition to this, the city is recommending that anyone who wants to be kept up to date with the most current information regarding the flooding situation should go to the web site abonnement.laval.ca where various options are available to receive texts or e-mail notices. It should be noted that these services are most useful when emergencies are underway.
Rapidly updated information on the flooding situation, including instructions on how to prepare should an evacuation become necessary, can also be obtained at the website inondations.laval.ca. The City of Laval’s resident relations agents can also be reached by phone by calling 3-1-1.
Proposed route could open eastern Laval up to massive development
The mayors of Laval, Terrebonne, Mascouche, Repentigny and Montreal-East hope to persuade the Quebec transport ministry to support a proposed new rapid transit rail line route that would pass from Repentigny through Montreal-East and Laval to Terrebonne and Mascouche on the North Shore, triggering economic development across their territories.

Former REM de l’Est
The former REM de l’Est, which was renamed Projet structurant de l’est (PSE) after being sent back to the drawing board following extensive public criticism, is being managed in its initial planning stages by the Autorité régionale de transport métropolitain (ARTM).
Laval mayor Stéphane Boyer and the four other mayors agree unanimously on the overall merits of the PSE project. The transport ministry issued a preliminary progress report in January, although no firm decisions have yet been taken about the route the PSE will eventually follow.
Route is under study
Before issuing more definitive recommendations in June, the transport ministry is analyzing the situation and in the meantime is recommending that options be studied for PSE extensions northward to Rivière-des-Prairies, Laval and Lanaudière.
Some initial route proposals for the project, which was originally managed by CDPQ Infra, are being retained in the revised version, which the mayors say they support in principle. A good deal of the interest being expressed by the five cities stems from the economic stimulus that each is almost certain to receive should the route pass across their territory.
Key to economic development
“Today we are extending our hand to the government of Quebec and the ARTM by unanimously endorsing one of their proposals,” Boyer said during a press conference held last Monday at Laval’s interim city hall on Saint-Martin Blvd.
‘We feel certain that it is this route that will facilitate a better economic development on our territories’
Mayor Stéphane Boyer
“We feel certain that it is this route that will facilitate a better economic development on our territories and optimal mobility to the betterment of our citizens today and tomorrow,” he added, while noting that the proposed route would pass through Laval’s eastern territory, which remains largely undeveloped compared to the west.
Would spur growth, say mayors
In a statement the five mayors issued on Monday, they said they were inviting the ARTM and the provincial transport ministry to pursue their analysis, while focusing on the recommendation in January to follow a route from Repentigny through Montreal, Laval and onto the North Shore.
“Such a transportation project would not only facilitate providing service to the population of the east of Montreal, the east of Laval and the north-east shore, meaning more than 500,000 people, but also would consolidate and support the economic and demographic growth of the east end of the Montreal Metropolitan Community (CMM),” the mayors said in their statement.
Lyceum of Greek Women of Montreal and Greek (Fashion) Designers Association assist Dr. Lucy Gilbert’s DOvEEgene Clinical Research Project
This past week the Lyceum of Greek Women of Montreal (LGWM) staged a spectacular Greek Fashion Show at Laval’s Palace Convention Centre.

The gala event, held in support of the DOvEEgene Clinical Research Project that focuses on women’s cancer issues, featured 14 major Greek designers coordinated by Greek Designers Association president Orsalia Parthenis who traveled from Greece to present the magnificent creations.
Emceed by renowned Greek TV journalist-and-fashionista, Irene Nikolopoulou, the fund-raiser amassed $30,000 for research into prevention-and-cure-of cancer research.
Palace Convention Centre kicks in $15,000
Annie Koutrakis, Vimy MP and Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Transport and Emmanuella Lambropoulos, Ville Saint-Laurent MP, heads of the Liberal Female Caucus, were the show’s honourary chairs; they were joined at the event by local leaders and various dignitaries from Greece.
LGWM has pledged $100,000 for the DOvEEgene Project by end-of-2023. The $45,000 proceeds from its 2022 Christmas Culinary Gala has already been donated; the group intends to complete its pledge with the community’s support from this prestigious Fashion Show. The April 25th event collected $30,000, apart from action-filled auctions for five designer-dresses modeled by cancer survivors and avoiders.
Bids ranged from $400 to $800 per dress. LGWM president Justine Frangouli-Argyris proudly announced a gener[1]ous gift of $15,000 from the Palace Convention Center. Since 2019, LGWM has contributed $300,000 to the DOvEEgene Clinical Research Project. Dr. Lucy Gilbert, the hero behind this research, stated that she wishes to headquarter the research in Canada, with intention to provide the findings to doctors all-over-the-world.

Dr. Gilbert is in the final stages of the clinical research for the new molecular “Pap-type” test that will detect ovarian and endometrial cancer very early. Many LGWM female members have already taken the test and two were diagnosed with pre-cancerous cells in their abdomen and underwent hysterectomy, saving them from the silent killer of ovarian cancer.
Ground-breaking research
While there’s ample research into ovarian and endometrial cancers, Dr. Gilbert is the only local researcher looking for an early detection test, uniquely positioned to achieve this goal.
Although US Labs have more funding, her medical expertise and her access to diversity-of-women within the public healthcare system are keys to clinical studies to confirm her discovery, a historical moment for Canada and for women all-over-the-world.
Justine Frangouli-Argyris proudly told TLN that Dr. Gilbert, director of gynecology and oncology at MUHC is the first in the world to have ground-breaking research saving a multitude of women. Holding Canada Revenue Agency accreditation (CRA), Lyceum of Greek Women of Montreal is a non-profit that promotes cultural and feminist issues.
The 15 women from various profes[1]sions and backgrounds who comprise the board of directors of are Canadian ladies of Hellenic origin with passion-and-fire. From the organization’s 2016 birth, they have promoted unique aspects of Greek culture, beginning with their first major undertaking – the STATUE OF THE GREEK IMMIGRANT – by esteemed international sculptor, Giorgos Houliaras.
The work, donated to Montreal, on the occasion of the city’s 375th anni[1]versary, has become one of the metropolis’s major landmarks. Greece has an amazing wealth of fashion talent, and seeing these creative visionaries bring their show-stopping designs to life on the runway was truly epic. The theme surrounded a celebration of strength, hope, and compas[1]sion. Guests were totally blown away by the creativity, skill, and craftsmanship that went into each-and-every design, visual works of art, breathtaking as they were ethereal, playful, daring and stunning.
Early detection of silent killers

“(Our efforts) are specifically designed to raise much-needed public support and funds for ovarian awareness, prevention, and treatment programs through our long-standing partner[1]ships with the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) and the Québec Breast Cancer Foundation (QBCF),” Frangouli-Argyris stated in media releases.
“Over-the-years, we’ve raised millions for breast cancer causes,” she added, emphasizing that early detection also identifies uterus-and-ovarian-cancer, the silent killer. “This year’s collection,” she specified, “pays tribute to our ever-evolving lifestyle and perseverance Canadians show in adapting to our environment with empathy and compassion. The creations are inspired by light, sea, and the long history of Greece.”
The spectacular event swept 500 guests on musical-fash[1]ion-journeys creatively blending DJ music with trend-setting fashions to bring excitement, glamour and lifestyle in up-close[1]and-personal ways, while aiding an extremely important worthy cause which will save women’s lives all-over-the-world through the DOvEEgene Clinical Research Project headed by Dr. Lucy Gilbert.
With hope, on behalf of women
In her address to the gathering, Dr. Gilbert confided that she works with sadness, sorrow, and pain, but she works on behalf of women who have given up their lives, and for those whose lives were saved. The runway, blending beach and casual/formal wear, gave the audience tastes of what’s paramount in timeless Greek fashion.
Described as ‘the most stylish party of the year’ was attended by 500 Greek local goddesses in search of a cure for cancers afflicting women all over the world. Special thanks went to Maria Fotopoulos, the soul of the organization of this memorable event, and to Dr. Lucy Gilbert and her team at McGill University, the major force behind the DOvEEgene Clinical Research Project.
