NEIGHBOURHOOD PROFILE

ST. BONIFACE A BIT OF FRENCH CULTURE AND HISTORY

DAWN PETER

Saint Boniface runs north as far as Mission Street following the Red River west along Tache Avenue and later Lyndale Drive. A large area with francophone residents, Saint Boniface extends east past Archibald Street to Plessis Road, reaching the Perimeter Highway.

The vibe in St. Boniface is clearly French-Canadian. From the Forks, it careens like canoe-carrying voyageurs to the next creek. Whether you’re in surgery at St. Boniface hospital or serving Sleeman’s at the Marion Hotel, you’re part of the living canvas here in the Montreal of the Metis.

Former residents counted French as their first language, but now most are more diverse and Englishspeaking. They may not look as rugged as the prairie pioneers of old but they celebrate this French catholic heritage just the same.

optimism

e have seen an evolution in interior trends in the past two years. Have you noticed it, too? Our world was plagued with uncertainty and, in turn, so have our interiors. Furniture and decor were all about comfort, clean lines and organic textures to counterbalance the cataclysmic world events and create a connection to the outdoors that we could not access like we used to. One thing is for sure – we are on the cusp of a reopening and trends this autumn are a reflection of that optimism.

MATERIAL MARVEL Materials can play a big role in creating an authentic, personal space. We see a dial-up this season in the use of different materials such as quartz, marble, brass and rattan.

These materials are built into furniture and molded into sculptural bowls, vases, picture frames and light fixtures for a truly one-of-a-kind look.

• Will parking cost extra? What is the amount?

34 Renters Guide | Sept. 10–24, 2021

• Who has to pay for repairs — big ones and small ones?

AVOID ROOMMATE MISUNDERSTANDINGS

• Who will sign the residential tenancy agreement (lease)? It’s best that all parties be named on it.

• What will happen if one person needs to move out before the end of the lease?

• How will costs be shared and bills paid?

• How will problems be resolved?

QUESTIONS AND CONSIDERATIONS

• Is the lease for a fixed amount of time or month-to-month?

• When and where will the rent be paid? What happens if it is late?

Ask for receipts for any payments.

• Who do you contact if there is a problem?

• Have you arranged for tenants’ insurance?

• Are sublets okay? What about a roommate?

• Are pets allowed? Is a deposit required?

• Is smoking allowed?

• How long can guests stay?

• Are you able to decorate your unit? What is the policy about push pins and hammering nails in the walls?

• When and where are notices delivered when it’s time to move out?

• When will the inspection report be done.

It’s always a good idea to keep copies of documents related to your rental unit, including the tenancy agreement, inspection report and receipts. Asking the right questions and considering the answers before you sign on the dotted line will help you find a rental unit that best suits your needs and lifestyle.

make the most of your balCony Jane herman Whether your balcony is a sundrenched southern exposure or a secluded shady nook, it’s your own window onto the world below.

Here are some ideas for enjoying your outside space.

Use yoUr imagination

Why not enjoy your morning coffee on the balcony before you go to work? A cold supper picnic outside with friends could add tranquil pleasure to the daily dinner ritual.

Create Comfort

A couple of inexpensive but

comfortable lounge chairs, a small side table and an umbrella are sufficient to get started.

You could add a waterproof rug, throw pillows, attractive containers, hanging baskets, even a bird feeder. an Urban garden

Container-grown flowers, vegetables, and herbs support biodiversity by attracting pollinators such as butterflies and bees, adding to the oxygen in the air. You can successfully grow tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, and other small vegetables in containers on your balcony, along with lettuces and herbs. Make sure you have adequate sun before setting out edible

Store bicycles in your building’s bike racks in the garage along with your snow tires. Buy a large plastic cupboard to conceal luggage, golf clubs, skis or children’s toys.

Make your balcony your own personal retreat. The potential is yours to discover.

here is no doubt that entertaining at home has changed. While dreams of wining and dining with a large group of family and friends maybe be put on pause for the time being, a thoughtfully planned, small group dining experience is a great way to socialize. You’ll want to keep everything on an intimate scale, staying within your bubble, with lots of room for everyone to feel comfortably apart.

Here are some easy tips for creating a dining space that is entertaining ready!

Table talk Whether you choose round, square or rectangular, your dining table should comfortably fit in your space, match your home’s aesthetic and stay on budget. It’s important to measure the table-

to-wall distance so that diners can get out of their seats easily. The general rule of thumb is to leave 42 to 48 in. between the table and the walls.

We don’t often think of a tabletop as loud or quiet, but metal and glass tend to amplify noise, whereas wood tends to absorb noise for a more comfortable dining experience. And, the best way to keep guests at the table is with comfortable chairs, so it’s a good idea to test out seating options before you buy.

Layering isn’t just for fashion To design an entertaining dining experience, think about layers when you’re choosing textiles for the table, the dishware, decor and

tip One of the most versatile and stylish items in home decor is the bar cart. A rolling bar cart can be your busboy! It can help you serve courses and load up dishes when clearing the table. Just roll the cart into the kitchen for fast and easy cleanup.

lighting. The tabletop is the base of your canvas. If it’s beautiful, show it off and consider using chargers rather than placemats. Chargers tend to add a sense of formality, and they’re easier to clean up after use. Use your best dishware and serving ware. I’m a big fan of using the “good” dishes year-round.

If you enjoy them on special occasions, why not treat yourself and bring them out more often.

Add multiple lighting styles and brightness to your dining space to help set the mood. Lighting on dimmers is a great way to control lighting. If you have a centre chandelier over the table, keep the light low and add candles on

the table. An easy decor trick is to put battery-powered LED candles into a large glass vase or add in seasonal items or greenery for an extra special touch.

Enjoy entertaining Especially during these unprecedented times, you want your guests to feel extra special and pampered. But, don’t get caught up in the formalities of being a host. Prepare as much as you can beforehand. Set your table the night before and premake any apps and desserts. That way, you ensure you truly enjoy what entertaining is all about – being together.

ADVICE | RENTERS’ HELP

LIVING BETTER

BY LIVING SMALLER

KIMBERLY LEUNG

In the market for a new place?

Chances are, you’re hoping to go up a couple sizes, and you’re already busy daydreaming about extra rooms, and wide, open spaces. But living smaller isn’t just for retirees. It can be a smart and economical decision, giving you the chance to save money, live closer to the things (or people) that matter, and be environmentally friendly.

REDUCE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT.

Living in a larger unit often means using up more of the earth’s limited resources. More space requires more furniture, more electricity, more light... basically more of everything.

You’ll also need to put in more of your already limited time and energy in keeping it clean. Try 46 Renters Guide | Sept. 10–24, 2021

to think critically about how much space you actually need to live comfortably. Set a range and challenge yourself to pick close to the lower end. A studio apartment might be perfect for a young couple. For larger families, remember that young siblings can bunk together. The act of sharing a room encourages relationship building.

SPEND LESS

Choosing less square footage can help your bottom line, and the benefits don’t stop at just a lower monthly rent. A conveniently located smaller unit could mean your twice weekly fill-ups are a thing of the past. Walking and biking to get around instead keeps you active - maybe you’ll be able to cancel that pricey gym membership. You might even learn to give up your shopaholic tendencies if you know you have no space at home to put your haul.

chic and functional and their large counterparts. After all, European homes tend to be smaller than North American ones, and no one would accuse them of living any less stylishly. Getting creative could be just the solution! A folding couch or futon can serve as a guest bed if you’re short on bedrooms. Ottomans and media units with hidden storage can hide anything from winter hats to cat toys. Light and airy pieces reduce visual weight and help create an open feeling in a smaller space. If you’re still stuck for ideas, don’t give up! Home decorating websites can be a great source of inspiration for living small.

ADVICE | MAKE YOUR MOVE

TO PACK – OR NOT: DIY OR LEAVE IT TO THE PROS?

CHUCK RESNICK

Moving is a very personal thing and people who hire moving companies ask for varying levels of service. Take packing, for example.

Some people want to pack their own items, while others prefer a turn-key solution where the mover does it all. There are, of course, advantages to each approach, so it is important to choose what’s best for you.

THE PROFESSIONAL PACKER

Most who choose to pack themselves do so because it saves money on the move. That is true only if the items make it from Point A to Point B in one piece.

Moving companies will not be responsible for items damaged because of poor packing. The most critical element in packing is taking into consideration how far and long the items will remain in the boxes and containers during transit. Consumers often underestimate just how much jostling their items will endure on the various highways and other roadways on their trip to their new home or business. Accessories such as lamps may seem to be packed well, but may shift inside the carton and break or chip as a result. Professional packers have the experience to know exactly what is best for various categories of items, depending on the size and distance of the move, and 52 Renters Guide | Sept. 10–24, 2021

they pack accordingly. They can also provide excellent advice on how to mark your boxes for ease of unpacking, and on the items to pack last and unpack first. Having your mover do the packing offers you the peace of mind in knowing that if the unexpected happens, your possessions will be repaired or replaced.

THE DIY PACKER

Trained packing professionals help clients with as much or as little of the packing and unpacking as required. Those who are willing and capable of packing themselves need to consider the proper materials and containers that will help to ensure a successful move. There are also significant considerations to keep in mind, such as not packing explosive or flammable items in the general boxes. Although you can obtain boxes from places like grocery stores, check with your mover, who may sell proper packing materials that will save you work and worry. Some of the items you will need are tape dispensers,

newsprint, markers, pads and bubble wrap – and there are many sizes and strengths of boxes available. There is a 1.5 cubic-foot box that is often referred to as a book or record box. It’s fairly small and is designed to hold small, heavy items like food jars or cans, flatware, CDs, etc. The next size up is a lamp or lampshade box, which is three cubic feet in size. The sizes go up from there, to 4.5 and six cubic feet for lighter objects such as pillows and stuffed animals.

These are just some of the moving materials that are available today.

Whether you choose to pack your own items or have your mover do it, be sure you choose a company with a solid track record for providing top-notch service.
