About Us

We are a non-partisan coalition of citizens of Brownsburg-Chatham, who have at heart the fate of our library and our architectural heritage. We believe that the library should be relocated to a bigger house, better equipped and be endowed with sufficient human resources to meet the needs of the population. The Roussell house (Principale/des Érables) is one of the last heritage building of interest to be located downtown.

The coalition has acknowledged the lack of support among the population for the relocalisation of the library in the Russell house. We now consider them as two separate files.

Luc Bélisle, Hélène Boivin, Michel Brisson, Jean Careau, Gilles Desforges, Cynthia Dubé, Anik Ferland, Pierre Gagnon, François Jobin, Sophie LaRoche, Diane Leduc, Mylène Mondou, Gilbert Poupart, Maurice Rochon, Claire Thivierge, Kathleen Wilson.

Heritage Highlighted

Municipalities and regions in the province of Québec are more and more valuing and highlighting their heritage to attract tourists. Here are some examples:

Tourisme patrimonial du Bas-Saint-Laurent (in French)
Circuit du patrimoine religieux de l'île d'Orléans (the site has an English version but the brochure on religious heritage in pdf format can be seen on the French version)
La Sarre City (population 7336 in 2006 according to Statistics Canada)
