The town of Saint-Josse has announced the launch of a market every Saturday around Place Saint-Lazare. Retailers have expressed their dissatisfaction because they are worried regarding unfair competition as well as disruptions that might discourage customers from shopping on a busy day, reports BX1.

Traders and ecologists are calling for an alternative and asking that the market day take place on Tuesday. The Greens tabled a motion aimed at modifying the regulations of the future market and were supported by the Socialists who sit in the majority. This situation reflects the divide between Mayor Emir Kir and the socialists.

Pending the publication of the new text, the first edition will take place this Saturday.

Israel bombed the towns of Naqoura and Alma Chaab in southern Lebanon, according to the Lebanese National News Agency.

The agency said that Israeli forces bombed the outskirts of the towns of Naqoura and Alma al-Shaab in the morning, while during the night they bombed the outskirts of the towns of Aita al-Shaab and Ramiya.

The agency added that “hostile reconnaissance aircraft” flew throughout last night and into Friday morning, while “hostile flares filled the skies of the western and central sectors.”

12. Detroit Red Wings (8-5-3)

Total points: 46

Last week: No. 14

“The Red Wings are thankful that so many players have roots in Michigan. Andrew Copp, Alex DeBrincat, Dylan Larkin and Jeff Petry were born in the Detroit area. Copp, Larkin and J.T. Compher played together at the University of Michigan. Petry, the son of retired Detroit Tigers pitcher Dan Petry, played at Michigan State. That helped Copp, Compher and DeBrincat sign in free agency, helped Larkin sign to forego free agency and made Petry want to be traded to Detroit. It gives them an extra sense of pride to play for the Red Wings.” — Nicholas J. Cotsonika, columnist

13. Winnipeg Jets (8-5-2)

Total points: 39

Last week: No. 16

” Kyle Connor. The Jets, winners of four of five games (4-1-0), better be thankful for their star forward with one of the best releases and shots in the NHL. Connor is on a heater with 11 points (seven goals) in his past four games. His 13 goals are tied with Matthews and Canucks forward Brock Boeser for first in the NHL, and Matthews is an American star forward who plays in Toronto and gets way more attention. But Connor might be the most unassuming star in the NHL. He is sixth in goals (220) since 2017-18, scored 31 last season and 47 two seasons ago and has at least 31 in every season since 2017-18 except for the 56-game COVID-19-shortened 2020-21 season, when he had 26, a 38-goal pace if it was an 82-game season. Goalies must hate Connor, because he’s fast, elusive and he gets the puck off his stick in a flash. The Jets better love him. They better be thankful for him.” — Rosen

14. New Jersey Devils (8-6-1)

Total points: 38

Last week: No. 8

“The Devils should be thankful they were able to acquire and maintain depth on offense during the offseason because it hasn’t come easy minus injured forwards Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier of late. Hughes, the No. 1 pick in the 2019 NHL Draft, has missed five games with an upper-body injury and Hischier, the No. 1 pick in the 2017 NHL Draft, has missed the past eight, also because of an upper-body injury. New Jersey acquired forward Tyler Toffoli (nine goals) in a trade with the Calgary Flames on June 27 and retained forwards Timo Meier (five goals), Jesper Bratt (eight) and Erik Haula (five) via free agency. Not to be forgotten is the hiring of Travis Green as associate coach June 22. Green was tasked with improving the power play, which leads the NHL at 37.9 percent (22-for-58).” — Mike G. Morreale, staff writer

15. Anaheim Ducks (9-7-0)

Total points: 36

Last week: No. 13

“The Ducks are thankful that games are 60 minutes and not 40, because if games were 40 minutes, they would be nowhere near this Super 16. They have, however, made NHL history, becoming the first team to have six third-period comeback wins through 15 games. They were down 2-0 in the second period once morest the Predators on Tuesday but scored late in the second and two in the third to win 3-2. They won five straight road games, four via a third-period comeback, before an 8-2 loss at Colorado on Wednesday. The Ducks have a minus-10 goal differential through two periods (20-30); they’re plus-8 from the third period on (29-21), have outscored opponents 26-21 in the third and 3-0 in overtime, and have not had a game go to a shootout.” — Rosen

16. St. Louis Blues (8-6-1)

Total points: 35

Last week: Unranked

“Enterprise Center. Home-ice advantage. The Blues have used it well this season, going 6-2-0 including wins in five of their past six home games since a 4-2 victory once morest the Pittsburgh Penguins on Oct. 21. They have outscored opponents 26-19. They’ve been this good on home ice although their special teams have been horrendous, 0-for-18 on the power play and 11-for-19 on the penalty kill (57.9 percent). But so what? Wins matter and the Blues have done well at home. The issue is they’re in a stretch of playing six of seven on the road, including the next three. They’re 2-4-1 on the road, so if they want to stay in the Super 16 and stay hot in general (they’ve won five of seven), they better figure out how to win consistently away from Enterprise Center. They won 8-2 in Denver once morest the Avalanche on Saturday, but lost 5-1 at the San Jose Sharks on Thursday.” — Rosen

Others receiving points: Tampa Bay Lightning 27, Pittsburgh Penguins 24, Buffalo Sabres 2

Dropped out from last week: Lightning (No. 10), New York Islanders (No. 14)
